All the next day Havyn heard nothing from Chelsea except snippets about cute puppies between long-drawn-out descriptions of absolutely every little thing Cannon had said or done the evening before. After dinner Cannon invited everyone down to his place again. The Portmans and Jeremy quickly agreed, having missed seeing the little mutts the night before due to jet lag, like her. Trying not to feel hurt that Chelsea had so quickly abandoned her to rush to Cannon’s side after the meal was over, she eyed the group gathering by the door in indecision. She really would like to see the puppies, but she’d feel like a third wheel tagging along with Cannon and Chelsea, and she certainly didn’t want to get paired off with Jeremy. As she scanned the room in indecision, her gaze collided with Levi’s.

He was spinning a football between his hands, and when she looked his way he held it up with the lift of a brow and tipped his head toward the lawn outside.

Grady, Pastor Chad, and Rayne were sitting together in the living room embroiled in what looked like a pretty deep discussion. That would leave just the two of them to toss the football.

She swallowed. How many evenings had they spent playing catch over the years? If he was trying to remind her of what they’d had, he was doing a good job of it. Suddenly the danger of getting paired off with Jeremy seemed quite tame in the face of other possibilities.

She shook her head at Levi and hurried after the group just headed out the door to Cannon’s place.

To her chagrin, Levi tucked the football under one arm, shoved his hands into the back pockets of his jeans, and sauntered after them.

The African evening offered a whole host of unique smells and sounds. The winds rustled through the stand of eucalyptus trees that grew between Cannon’s place and the main house, filling the air with their signature biting scent. Cicadas serenaded the night in trio with crickets and frogs. Across the valley she could see the flickering orange of the village fires, and a lonely set of drums filled the evening with a rhythm that made her feet want to dance.

Cannon’s place was a small brick rambler with only five rooms, counting the tiny bathroom. The moment she glimpsed the little white bundles of grunting, mewling fluff, she was so glad she’d decided to come.

“Oh my goodness!” Havyn fell to her knees by the box and stretched her hand out to the pure white, black-eyed mama dog, who was lying on her side as seven puppies nuzzled and squabbled for milk at her belly. “Hi there. Aren’t you the prettiest thing ever? Yes, you are.”

“I told you,” Chelsea chuckled.

Mama dog’s tail thumped several times, and she laid her head back down as she realized no one here presented a threat to her offspring.

Havyn glanced up at Cannon. “What kind of dogs are they?”

Cannon ran his fingers across one cheek. “Well, just mutts really.
