Aria started up the driveway toward the garage, an excited burn in her stomach. Then she heard a clink<br />

and<br />

a loud woof. A Rottweiler ran out from the narrow space between the garage and the wrought-ir<strong>on</strong><br />

fence,<br />

dragging a l<strong>on</strong>g metal tie-out chain around its neck.<br />

Aria jumped back. Froth sprayed from the dog’s mouth. Its body was thick and sturdy, all muscle. “Shh,”<br />

she tried to say, but it came out barely more than a whisper. The dog growled viciously, no doubt<br />

Aria swallowed hard and dashed up, her heart beating like mad. The dog scurried up behind her, his<br />

paws<br />
