THREE

Jessica tugged slightly, but she couldn’t pull free from Luc’s iron grip. It was midnight, and the party was ending, time for everyone to leave. “I’ll call a cab. You really don’t need to take me home.” She didn’t want to get in any deeper with this man. He just drew her in, and she wanted to soak up his essence. That wasn’t a good idea for either one of them.

“You aren’t going to get a cab to come this far from the city center this late at night.”

Thinking of the taxi driver who dropped her off at the bottom of the drive, Jessica knew he was right. She hadn’t planned to stay so late, but she’d been engrossed in the tour and Julie’s tales about the castle. She lost all track of time. “Okay, I admit you’re probably right.”

Lucian raised a brow. “I know I’m right, I usually am,” he smugly added.

“Umm, modest much?” She couldn’t help but smile when she said it. Lucian seemed detached, almost cold to the people around them tonight. She didn’t feel that coldness when he dealt with her though. He had that tall, dark, and deadly look about him. She almost wanted to confide her trouble to him, because he looked like someone who could take care of himself and anything that came his way.

The truth was she didn’t really know enough about him to bare her soul and in the process put him in danger. She’d let him drop her off at the inn, and that would be goodbye. She felt a pang of longing and regret. Under normal circumstances, she would have really liked to get to know this man better. Nothing about her life right now was normal, and she couldn’t forget it.

“I’m staying at Inn Enigma. You know the one on Main Street with the cute apple green door and royal purple awning.”

“I know where it is. Let’s go.” He didn’t let go of her arm, and she had no choice but to follow him to the valet area. His car was already there waiting for them with the keys in the ignition.

“Wow, now that’s service,” Jessica mumbled under her breath.

Lucian gave her a small smile as he opened the door, but he didn’t comment. She learned that he was a man of few words.

The trip to Enigma’s town square happened in relative silence. Luc seemed deep in thought, and she was loath to disturb him. She tried to look straight ahead to see where they were going but spent most of the time sneaking peeks at him from underneath her lowered lashes. She knew it was silly. She wanted to look her fill, but she didn’t want to get caught doing it.

Lucian neatly parallel parked the car in a convenient spot just right of the inn’s main entrance. Jessica shook her head. That space would have never been open if she’d been driving. She turned in her seat and faced him head-on. “Thanks for everything, Luc.”

He started to say something, but she put up a hand to stop him.
