Sam looked at Merope, suddenly realizing that she looked once again like a little girl. Now that he wasn't being assaulted by pornographic visions he realized how close he'd come to causing her harm. He furrowed his brow and kneeled in front of her. "Merope, I'm sorry."

"There's strength in numbers," he said, even as he realized how wrong about that theory he'd been in Cold Oak. The memory made his jaw tigheten. "I'm going to go find him. Do you want to come with me or stay here? If you want to rest, I'll come back for you. Once I've found the others."
