Henry!” Evelyn’s heart hammered in her chest, and her knees went weak. She inhaled sharply, trying to recover from the shock of seeing her brother stand right before her. All these months, she had believed him to be dead. Evelyn stumbled toward him on shaky legs. She threw her arms around his neck and hugged him close, sobbing against his shoulder. Henry stood stiffly, and patted her back. “I thought you were dead,” Evelyn cried, and her voice cracked. “I saw that horrible man stab you, and you . . . fell overboard.” “I survived,” Henry said dryly. There was no warmth to his voice. With his hands at her waist, he peeled her away from him. Evelyn wiped at the tears in her eyes. “How?” she asked, shaking her head slightly. Her eyebrows pulled together. “Some Indians found me, and pulled me from the water,” he said hastily. Henry avoided her stare. “After I recovered, I’ve been looking for you.” Evelyn smiled warmly at her brother. She touched his cheek just to make sure he was even real, then squeezed his hands.
