Evaline:
Crossingthe room, I unlocked the door and opened it.
Only to freeze in place.
Kieran was standing in front of me... but he wasn't alone. Right behind him were Oscar and Draven.
I blinked once. Then again.
My heart gave a wild little jump in my chest as I took them in, all three tall and striking in their own ways, filling the narrow hallway with their sheer presence. Kieran looked like he belonged here - calm, gentle smile and warm eyes meeting mine. Oscar, with his unruly hair and quiet intensity, had his hands buried deep in his pockets. Draven stood with his usual relaxed arrogance, one brow raised as he studied me.
I must have looked like an idiot, just standing there staring.
"Are you going to let us in," Kieran said lightly, his lips curving into a teasing smile, "or would you rather we camp here all night?"
Heat rushed to my cheeks as I stepped aside. "Sorry-please, come in."
