Mason's jaw was tight as he held the steering wheel, staring straight ahead while driving to the police station. He hadn't wanted to bring Ellen along, feeling that it might be too much for her, especially after everything they'd been through. But Ellen had insisted, telling him that she needed to see this person for herself. Whoever this intruder was, she wanted answers just as much as he did.
The phone call from the police was short but totally shocking—they had finally caught the man responsible for breaking into their house. Just thinking about confronting the person who had invaded their home made her feel both relieved and anxious.
Once they arrived, Mason parked the car, took a deep breath, and glanced over at Ellen. She was already unbuckling her seatbelt. With a nod, they got out, and they walked side by side into the station.
