She didn’t actually have any use for rope, but her father
had always kept it around. Even though he passed right after her nineteenth
birthday, at twenty-four Ebony still stored most of his things right where he’d
left them. Thank God.
Ebony slipped the rope through the hook for the cast iron
pan, tied it around the pan’s handle, and pulled the rope down to the chair.
She slip knotted it so it couldn’t fall and then stormed over to the man on her
floor. Anger boiling over, just who did he think he was? This was her fricken
house. She grabbed both of his hands and pulled as hard as she could. God he was heavy.
