Chapter 14

" Good morning and breakfast will be ready in two." Bridgette turned around and saw Nathan coming into the kitchen.

" Morning ok that sounds good you have the morning shift today?" Nathan came over to Bridgette and gave her a quick kiss before going over to the counter and picking up the coffee pot and poured himself a cup of coffee.

" Yes so that means I will be home for dinner and we are having it with Uncle Lionel and Grandma tonight." Bridgette put the two eggs on the plate that she had for Nathan.

" Ok I do have to go in to the shop and see if that for Ms. Hamilton's car came in, and then have Seth put it onto the car, but before I go I do have to feed the horse, and make sure they are warm." Nathan came over to the stove as Bridgette held out his plate to him.

" Ok, I just hope that the roads are not that bad, they are staying the stables today?" Bridgette grabbed her plate and cup of coffee and joined Nathan at small kitchen table.

" Yeah it is too cold for them so I thought that they can stay in there, and with a couple of animal mauling that has also been going on I thought it would be best if I keep them in the stables." Nathan cut up his eggs and then add some salt and pepper to them.

" You don't think that the killings are related to the murders?" Bridgette broke a piece of bacon and put it into her mouth.

" Am not sure, but Mr. Humpfies did lose four of his prize cattle." Nathan took a sip of his coffee.

" I heard about that, and Lionel did say that the bites did look dog like." Bridgette finished her bacon.

" Are we to bring anything over to your Uncle's." Nathan also finished his bacon.

" No just bring ourselves, but I am stopping by the bakery and picking up a pie." Bridgette finished up her eggs.

" Ok, um . . . you think you better get going or you will be late." Nathan glance up at the clock and saw what time it was.

" Oh man, thanks I do want to leave early just in case the roads are bad." Bridgette stood up and was about to grab her plate but Nathan put his hand over hers and stopped her from picking it up.

" You get dress, and I will take care of all of the plates here." Nathan picked up not only his plate but Bridgette's too.

" Ok thanks oh could you please pour me some coffee in my to-go-cup." Bridgette gave Nathan a quick kiss before heading out of the kitchen and heading off to the bedroom.

Nathan cleaned up the dirty dishes and was pouring Bridgette's coffee when she came back into the kitchen and she went over to the fridge and grabbed the lunch box before coming over to Nathan.

" Here you go and you have a great day and see you at Lionel's love you." Nathan handed Bridgette her cup of coffee before giving her a kiss.

" Thank you and I will see you there, and love you too, and you have a great day too." Bridgette gave him one more kiss before leaving the kitchen and going out to her car.

Nathan went into the bedroom and got dressed and headed out to the stables.

" Whoa boy, what is it?" Nathan went over to one of the stalls and put hand between the bars and rubbed the horse's neck.

The horse was neighing and pawing the ground very nervously, and the other two horses were moving around very panicky in their stalls.

He walked over to the bales of hay and began putting some into the wheel barrow, when heard something moving around in the loft above him.

"Hello is someone there?" Nathan called out and looked about the room.

There was nothing but silence, even the horses had stopped their pacing and pawing of the ground.

And before Nathan knew it he fell to the ground and the attack happen very quickly, and he never saw what it was that attacked him, and he just laid there in a huge pool of blood.
