Chapter 12

Quinn’s feet shuffle out of my bedroom exactly thirty-six minutes after I wake. I’m already sitting at the kitchen island, two cups of steaming coffee in hand. I thought once I poured my heart out to her and told her the truth about my relationship with Daniela I would be able to get some sleep. What I didn’t take into consideration was the effect Quinn’s warm inviting body had on me, or my nagging mind swirling that even though I knew where I stood on ending things with Daniela, the reality of Daniela letting me go without a fight was an entirely different dilemma. Quinn walks through the living room and toward me, dressed in light-blue jeans and a faded gray tank top. The same labradorite pendant she wore at my bedside in the Dark Room is around her neck. She lets out a tiny yawn and smiles over at me, before sitting down on the stool next to me.

“Hey,” she breathes.

“Good morning.” I drink in the sight of her bare shoulders. “Coffee?”

Dark curls frame her face, and she tucks one behind her ear as she stretches for another yawn, exposing her long neck. I immediately think of sucking little marks into her skin, from her ear to her collarbone.

“Yes, please,” she says. “How are you feeling today? Still nauseous?”

She takes a coffee mug from my hand and pulls back to look at me silently in response. I feel the heat of her hypnotic green eyes and the temptation of her full, pink lips. Sipping her coffee, Quinn blinks away before sitting down on the stool next to me.

“I’m feeling a bit better,” I reply. “I took a few Tylenol when I woke up. And I even made another glass of that terrible all natural concoction and drank it.”

She blinks. I lean in a little and the way she’s staring at my mouth is making my skin hum.

“Wow,” she says, smiling. “I’m impressed.” She takes another sip of her coffee and places it down on the countertop. “Are you hungry?”

I shrug. “A little.”

She tears her eyes from my mouth and looks up at me, lifting her chin and nods toward the stove. “Oatmeal?”

“Don’t burn it.” I wink at her. She rolls her eyes at me with a tiny smirk on her lips. I take a sip of my coffee and watch her press up onto her tippy toes and reach up into the cupboard. “So I guess I wasn’t imagining things when I saw you wearing a labradorite stone in the Dark Room. You got my package, then?”

Quinn blushes. “Yes, I did. Thank you.”

“I knew you would make something beautiful.”

An awkward silence falls between us as she prepares oatmeal on the stove top.

“Have you made anything else with the stones?” I finally ask.

“No, so far only this necklace…” she tells me, turning to face me as if she’s only really looking at me now. “I haven’t had much time to focus on my own collection. My Etsy site has been keeping me busy with making my most popular jewelry pieces for clients.
