“Ben Sinclair, the head of Bryn's father's security team, stood beside her the whole day, never letting her out of his sight, and she was glad to have him there. A couple years younger than her, the former Army Ranger was a mountain of strength for her to lean upon, making her feel relatively safe amongst the media and crowd of mourners gathered at the Beirut cemetery. He was the protective brother she'd never had, and though she'd sensed more than a platonic interest on his part lately, for her... they could never be more than friends.
With Ben's arm around her waist, Bryn was numb as she watched them bury her father's casket. His body couldn't be in that glossy, wooden box being lowered into the ground.
