Mail Order Mayhem (Mail Order Romance Book 2 - Benjamin And Annie) - Plot & Excerpts
He pried open one eyelid, then immediately closed it again against the stabbing pain in his head. He rested his aching skull on the cold floor boards under him and labored to think. He wondered if his injuries might have blinded him, because only pure blackness squeezed between his eyelids when he did manage to open one of them. His hips and shoulders smarted from lying on the hard surface, and his neck wrenched in spasms from the twist imposed on it by his position. Eventually, his beleaguered brain recalled the horrors of the early morning, and concern for Annie induced him to drag his eyes open and raise his tormented head from the floor. The ponderous silence pervading the cabin and surrounding area told him she must be gone, or desperately in need of his help, or possibly both. Every fiber of nerve and muscle screamed in pain, but he goaded himself up to a sitting posture, leaning on one arm, and there paused to get his breath. Once sitting up, he saw the light of day through the crack under the cabin door, and from the angle of the sun’s rays, guessed that most of the day had passed and it was now late afternoon.
