His footsteps pounding on the pavement behind her. He was fast. The streets were full of people, but none of them looked concerned at the woman sprinting down the sidewalk, with a man shouting angrily after her.386Please respect copyright.PENANA6jneph1Kah
386Please respect copyright.PENANAEaUjDlT124
She turned and glared at him. "I told you, we're done talking."386Please respect copyright.PENANA4bkkE2dHHw

"No," he said, as he got close to her. "Please let me explain."386Please respect copyright.PENANAbVa3ERnfvh
386Please respect copyright.PENANAiSm5jU03HU
She backed away, her green eyes wide. "I have to go."386Please respect copyright.PENANAdv9N4fNZVB
386Please respect copyright.PENANAFBh7TYpc8N
He gripped her arm lightly. "Just wait, Eden. Wait."386Please respect copyright.PENANAm2PDeH4txO
386Please respect copyright.PENANAAjanekVu8o
"Let me go, Daniel."386Please respect copyright.PENANAJFXdlt50Bc
386Please respect copyright.PENANABLqnrPhh02
His blue eyes darkened.386Please respect copyright.PENANA11fdy0Yf6M
386Please respect copyright.PENANAsEgfiIN5qo
Eden pulled from him and stumbled back into someone. She looked up to see the man from the bar. He was staring at Daniel with a hard gaze, his lips curling.386Please respect copyright.PENANAAX9zRw31Ip
386Please respect copyright.PENANALuzhHc44lt
"Are you all right?" he asked.386Please respect copyright.PENANAUwl04Ph896
386Please respect copyright.PENANAxXz1Bg8qep
"I'll be fine," she answered.386Please respect copyright.PENANAxHnHGIHY2D
386Please respect copyright.PENANA1TQDgnkFVX
"Good." His eyes fell on Daniel. "Now get the hell out of here, or I'll make you sorry you ever touched her."386Please respect copyright.PENANAVPeMfCsn9j
386Please respect copyright.PENANAac3BR8lxLI
Daniel made a move toward Eden again, and the man pushed him back.386Please respect copyright.PENANA2nhfA8nXlJ
386Please respect copyright.PENANAtrTdxXWA14
"I warned you," he hissed.386Please respect copyright.PENANAJNl4tkQVhe
386Please respect copyright.PENANA2nFUnKgV90
After he was gone, Eden shook her head. "Thank you, but I was handling it."386Please respect copyright.PENANAzmt0Fl8I6M
386Please respect copyright.PENANAvItrQHuMtb
"I'm sure you were," the man replied smugly. "And it looks like so many people were willing to help you with your confrontation."386Please respect copyright.PENANALuKmycj5dl
386Please respect copyright.PENANA6BHEkLGUuw
"Sorry if I ruined your night."386Please respect copyright.PENANANDVfIfA4qa
386Please respect copyright.PENANAySGWWfGE17
He shrugged. "My night ended after my last drink. I was just heading home when you ran into me." He looked down the now empty street. "Who was he?"386Please respect copyright.PENANAlQPRnjNCZ2
386Please respect copyright.PENANAHHwhh3AV5C
"Daniel," she replied, frowning.386Please respect copyright.PENANAvnXe9kUc0D
386Please respect copyright.PENANAc1WHLQHtUd
"Is he your boyfriend?"386Please respect copyright.PENANA7ExeyTvRad
386Please respect copyright.PENANAITaGJGQ3LW
"Was." She looked into his gray eyes as they walked down the sidewalk. "He's changed a lot since we've been together."386Please respect copyright.PENANAOfZEWgwuO1
386Please respect copyright.PENANAhpCTUVfcIy
He grinned briefly. "I'm sorry, I've forgotten my manners. I'm John."386Please respect copyright.PENANAV9ximaMwxK

"Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve," he murmured. "Well, it was a pleasure, but I've got to head home. I have an early morning."386Please respect copyright.PENANAns4dxeLVMj
386Please respect copyright.PENANAftIY890jqu
Eden nodded. "It was nice to meet you."386Please respect copyright.PENANALdJhg8t12S

"Be careful on your way," John said softly as he started in the opposite direction. "You never know who you may run into." 386Please respect copyright.PENANA9RozTD0FtW
