Riven's eyes went wide the moment she saw Tatehan standing in the doorway. For a split second she just stared, like she couldn't believe he was actually there. Then her face broke into a huge grin.
"Tatehan!"
Before he could say anything, she practically lunged forward and wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug. Tatehan stiffened slightly, he wasn't used to this kind of greeting, but he awkwardly patted her back.
"Didn't think I'd see you today," Riven said, pulling back but still smiling. "Hell, didn't think I'd see you for another month at least."
Tatehan gave a faint smile. "Surprise."
Riven stepped aside, gesturing for him to come in. "Get in here. Don't just stand in the hallway looking all mysterious."
He walked in and she closed the door behind him, engaging the lock with a soft click.
