Lee clutched her blouse just under her neck with one hand and the other hand covered her growing baby bump protectively. The look of growing alarm could not be disguised. Caroline and Annie, both flanked her, their hands around her waist or shoulders to lend their support.

“This is my daughter, Lee. Why would you be looking for her, if I may ask?” Duke proclaimed, taking a half a step closer to the steps, looking down at the two Army officers who respectfully remained standing at the base of the steps and looked as uncomfortable as any of the rest of them were feeling.
