Chapter Seven

Dani quietly padded down the staircase in search of Gavin or Maddoc. She felt much better after such a long sleep and couldn’t remember the last time she’d been up in time to have a proper lunch. She much preferred working in the lab at night when no one else was around to distract her thoughts. Perhaps if she’d kept better working hours, she wouldn’t have been so alone and it wouldn’t have been as easy for them to let her go when the budget was cut.

“Hello?” Her voice echoed in the large hallway, making her wince.

“Down the hall, Dannika. Second door on your left.”

She followed the voice and found Gavin in a room that made her neurons fire like mad. “This is a librarian’s wet dream.” There were books everywhere she looked. The shelves stretched from floor to ceiling, and there were more stacked up on top of each other.

There was only one thing that could draw her attention from the incredible sight of hundreds of unread books. Gavin sat on one side of a large desk that had obviously been made for two people to face each other. Last night flooded her head as her body remembered what Maddoc had made her feel and how he’d done it.

“Hi, Gavin.”

He smiled at her and held out his hand as he pushed away from the desk. Curious what he wanted, she moved closer to him and slipped her hand into his. A quick inhalation and she found herself pulled off balance and into his lap. She made a silly noise as she tried to jump back up but couldn’t battle his strength. “Stay here, Dani. I like having you like this.”

Dani sat crossways on his lap. His large arm supported her back while he laid his other hand on her stomach and made small circles. “What’s got you blushing so red this morning?”

She pressed the back of her hand to one cheek and could feel the heat radiating off it. “Oh, I thought about last night for a moment and got flustered.”

Gavin laughed. The sound was rich like chocolate, and she felt something inside of her respond to the happy sound. “You have no idea how much I appreciate your honesty.”

“Like I told your brother, most people don’t appreciate it.”

“Then they don’t deserve it. I’ll tell you something else, Dani. Aside from our mother, you are the only woman who can tell Maddoc and me apart. What gives us away?”

Dani shrugged. “I really have no idea. Somehow I just know, but I don’t know how.”

“That’s one of the many things I find fascinating about you. How did you sleep?”

“Very well, thank you. I hope you slept well, too..”

“I had the pleasure of holding you in my arms for the entire night, there is only one way it could have been better.. Maddoc only got up about ten minutes before you did. When we heard the shower upstairs, he went to go and make you some breakfast.”

“Oh.” Dani wasn’t sure what to think about all of this.
