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.421Please respect copyright.PENANAiIMk4rHNOc
421Please respect copyright.PENANAtdbpdKfBHv
She turned and glared at him. "I told you, we're done talking."421Please respect copyright.PENANAGcUpcAksUu
421Please respect copyright.PENANAfqLxH19JXz
"No," he said, as he got close to her. "Please let me explain."421Please respect copyright.PENANA1aeEAF65uc
421Please respect copyright.PENANAB1ipmX1qVt
She backed away, her green eyes wide. "I have to go."421Please respect copyright.PENANACEQmuDEBVM
421Please respect copyright.PENANAfWDTLYrc2J
He gripped her arm lightly. "Just wait, Eden. Wait."421Please respect copyright.PENANAWCGmPZcSs1
421Please respect copyright.PENANAO7Dz9TKWBE
"Let me go, Daniel."421Please respect copyright.PENANAhNAxJWuzSF
421Please respect copyright.PENANA5g91UDMz9I
His blue eyes darkened.421Please respect copyright.PENANA25xncIOUOW
421Please respect copyright.PENANAn4l8ignENL
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.421Please respect copyright.PENANAv8x6puQLin
421Please respect copyright.PENANAW8l3cqd7w6
"Are you all right?" he asked.421Please respect copyright.PENANAtPumyeP2Aa
421Please respect copyright.PENANA3JuYh4l8YE
"I'll be fine," she answered.421Please respect copyright.PENANArWpIVHZLWB
421Please respect copyright.PENANA1YFiNSwyHs
"Good." His eyes fell on Daniel. "Now get the hell out of here, or I'll make you sorry you ever touched her."421Please respect copyright.PENANA5FOAwoExFi
421Please respect copyright.PENANARuzWDwu4MC
Daniel made a move toward Eden again, and the man pushed him back.421Please respect copyright.PENANA6kUHU4UaeS
421Please respect copyright.PENANALPeiTldbQi
"I warned you," he hissed.421Please respect copyright.PENANAxzZKjqyyfb
421Please respect copyright.PENANANa5WvBBVs0
After he was gone, Eden shook her head. "Thank you, but I was handling it."421Please respect copyright.PENANA5PkNwWG0Pt
421Please respect copyright.PENANADDMMmKtnOG
"I'm sure you were," the man replied smugly. "And it looks like so many people were willing to help you with your confrontation."421Please respect copyright.PENANADC10ehQGe4
421Please respect copyright.PENANAAOeLKUFJh7
"Sorry if I ruined your night."421Please respect copyright.PENANAMjCbSmthJT
421Please respect copyright.PENANAOgSJdx9Kbg
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?"421Please respect copyright.PENANAA2qGVNbpBB
421Please respect copyright.PENANAcFdHn4bnE5
"Daniel," she replied, frowning.421Please respect copyright.PENANAVOfabflTbG
421Please respect copyright.PENANAIqaKplJL3k
"Is he your boyfriend?"421Please respect copyright.PENANAAxtqKCPlkH
421Please respect copyright.PENANAAHy7QqfpO7
"Was." She looked into his gray eyes as they walked down the sidewalk. "He's changed a lot since we've been together."421Please respect copyright.PENANAOkRDWOx62e
421Please respect copyright.PENANABtfITOtXID
He grinned briefly. "I'm sorry, I've forgotten my manners. I'm John."421Please respect copyright.PENANAYeR1f4k1nY

"Eden."421Please respect copyright.PENANALLwHmVRpDk

"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."421Please respect copyright.PENANAeUbLDbhp7N
421Please respect copyright.PENANAhIjxkzyOgC
Eden nodded. "It was nice to meet you."421Please respect copyright.PENANA3pqwlBhR0d

"Be careful on your way," John said softly as he started in the opposite direction. "You never know who you may run into." 421Please respect copyright.PENANAqyrB5BYlru
