His voice was deep. Deeper than any voice I had heard before. It was strong and husky and low. That voice was one I could tell kept people up at night. I could not help but imagine him reading for a thriller audiobook.

Scary but hot was a pattern with this guy. He might not have given anything away about himself, but I could rule out that his flaw was his voice because it was certainly not squeaky. It was the opposite and the low-octave sound vibrated through me.

When walking in here, I felt a lot better being inside and away from the sight and sound of the sea. It turned out that I had found myself in a different type of danger from the wrath of the mysterious man across from me.

"Lurch from The Addams Family." I answered and then I went on to explain "He is the big guy that never speaks and only groans and grumbles occasionally."

His face remained stoic. His eyes however told a different story as they watched me unfalteringly.

I had the urge to jump up and scream boo to try and scare him. I wanted to make his expression budge, but it appeared quite a challenge.

I wanted to know how much he worked out to get so big and muscly. I wanted to know why his eyes were so black and if he wore contacts. I wanted to know if he was capable of smiling.

"Wait! I think he has a catchphrase." I spoke aloud before changing my voice to one of a monotoned heavy smoker male when I remembered the famous phrase from the character of Lurch "You rang?"

Brennan sat still in his seat next to the giant. He was watching Stone for his reaction like he was waiting for a jack-in-the-box to pop or for a volcano to explode.

Stone's mouth twitched upwards for a split second as he continued to watch me.

The small smile was too quick to memorise which I should have because I suspected I would not see it again.

"Maybe you are Wednesday Addams instead." I suggested to him before breaking contact so I could explain my hypothesis to Lana "It is like that scene where she tries to smile and it looks like it causes her actual pain to do so."

I glanced back at Stone who I had now decided to refer to as Lurch.

He was looking at me too. So intensely that my face was starting to heat up again.

The giant stranger watched me like he could not believe what was happening. He watched me as if I was something other than human.

Maybe he was not used to being called a name. I admitted to myself that even I would not like to be on the bad side of his muscles.

His body was built like a gorilla. Not even a normal gorilla but more like Godzilla.

Everything about him was closed off and monotonous. Even his eyes had no colour.
