Cletus asked for Lana when she was barely more than a child. He told her grandmother he wanted a wife, not a bride, someone to keep his house the way he wanted it and to give him sons. He got more daughters than sons, and he also got James: 'That boy,' the one Cletus claimed wasn't his. Jim Dillon wanted Lana - he always had. He just hadn't expected her to be taken away and married to someone else so soon. Glen Morgan recognized the beauty underlying Lana's worn features, and he stepped in where Cletus hadn't, offering help to her and her children. Lana grew up under Cletus' demands, fulfilling what was expected of her - until his accusations that she'd done the unexpected and been unfaithful. Lana no longer looked at what might have been or what could be. She discovered what was most important, and she found it inside of herself.
