and Erin had blown her hair dry, they all met up in the dining room to eat.  Myles had reheated the food and they ate while they discussed the plans for the day.  They met up with Dr. Thompson at the lab where he informed them he had set up a charter boat for them.  Erin wanted to get some of her own equipment she had brought with her, so she left the men to make the arrangements while she hurried back to the bungalow.
    She hurried in the front door and didn't notice the man standing behind it until he grabbed her from behind.  She screamed and he tightened his arm.  She closed her eyes and centered herself the way the men had taught her.  After the sisters had come into their powers, the Guardians had taught them how to defend themselves if it ever came to that.  She remembered joking with Ari and Kira that the maneuver they taught them reminded her of the movie 'Miss Congeniality' where the lead actress had taught people a similar move.
    She stepped back and the hold loosened on her neck.  She stomped on his foot and he let her go to yell.  Then she rammed her elbow into his ribs, shot her fist into his nose, and then turned to punch him as hard as she could in his balls.  He screamed and dropped to the ground.  She shot through the front door, leaving it open and jumped in the cart.  She flew to the lab and saw Myles standing outside, waiting for her to return.

    When she pulled up, she jumped out of the cart and ran into his arms.  He saw her fear and grabbed her up into his arms as he called out for his brother.
    "What is it? ” he asked.
    "There was a man...in the...house... ”  She couldn't get her breath.  Aedan came out just as she was telling Myles.
    Myles turned to Aedan and said, "Take care of her.  I'm going to check it out."
    Aedan nodded and wrapped her in his arms.  She was shaking from fear and looked into Aedan's eyes.  "What if he was armed?  What if he hurts Myles?"
    Aedan smiled at her.  "No one will hurt Myles, honey."
    They waited at the cart, Aedan held Erin on his lap and she told him all that had happened at the bungalow.  "You did good, honey.  Really good.”  He praised her.  "So you were paying attention and not just admiring our bodies.”  His teasing got the desired effect from her and she laughed.
    O ne of the things she loved most about him was he could make her laugh.  Her shaking had subsided and she laid her head on his shoulder.  He kissed her forehead and they waited for Myles.
    Myles came back in another borrowed cart and shook his head as he got out.  "No one was there when I got there.  The door was open and he had gone through our things , but he was long gone."
    Aedan nodded and then suggested they go to a cafe before going to the marina.  Erin told him there was a great cafe on the marina where they could watch the boats.  They used the car Dr. Thompson had for them and drove down to the docks.
    They ordered coffees and sat out on the back deck of the cafe.  The men tried to take her mind off what had happened, but she couldn't stop reliving it in her mind.  Myles had called Reilly at the castle and found that all was quiet there.  Lachlan and Reilly were on full alert now that there had been another attack on one of the sisters.  They cautioned Myles and urged him to bring Erin back to the castle.  Erin had refused to go until she found out what was happening with the sea lions.
    They boarded the charter boat and Erin went with one of the deck hands to check out the equipment.  Myles had brought hers back to her when he went to check out the house earlier.  Once everything was set, they headed out to where the River Life met the Irish Sea.  The River Life ran through Dublin and emptied out into the Irish Sea not too far from the marina.  They arrived at the point Erin and Dr. Thompson had mapped out and launched the anchor.
    As Erin began putting on her diving gear, Myles said, "I still don't feel right about
