They say eyes are the windows to the soul, but his windows were hidden by blackout curtains and a brick wall the size of him. They were a complete mystery.

He was a complete mystery.

I shook myself out of my trance-like state and focused on the happier side of the table. Brennan was watching Stone watch me and Lana was just watching me.

Lana's gaze flickered between Stone and me until she settled on me and asked "Anyway, how was your date?"

"It was fine." I shrugged before replying "The whole twenty minutes of it."

The small hint of a second-long smile was without a doubt gone from Stone's face now.

His hands were balled into fists resting on the table. His jaw clenched and unclenched like a ticking time bomb. He was grinding his molars as he listened to the conversation and his scowl had deepened even further.

Stone appeared murderous. Every part of his muscular body was tensed as if he was fighting back a predatory streak that lingered near the surface of his emotionless facade.

I had no clue why he looked so vicious like one more little thing could set him off on a killing spree.

He probably did not need a reason and I was looking far too deep into it.

Brennan sent a small smile my way as he mentioned "Lana mentioned you only went on the date for a stuffed teddy."

It turned out that this guy was not just a massive flirt. He was also a massive tease. It made me wonder why he hung around with the dark cloud beside him.

The scowling scary man looked like someone that did not take well to insults. He looked like he dealt with them fist-first.

"You must be a pretty damn good flirt." I commented before asking "How did you get all this out of Lana in the twenty minutes that I was not there?"

Brennan delivered with a mere roll of his shoulders "Just worked my charm."

Swivelling around in my seat on the booth, I pointed at Lana accusingly while challenging "Did you give him my bank details as well?"

Her response was a shrug and a small guilty filled smile.

I shifted in my seat when I felt the dark pair of eyes that were still unwitheringly studying my face.

"How did you two meet?" I asked while glancing between Lana and Brennan to keep myself distracted.

A dreamy sight left Lana before explaining "I went to get a candy apple at the stall and there was only one left. Brennan took it."

I was confused at how she found that romantic. If some random person had stolen food from me then I would not stay and chat. I would kick their ass or at least try to anyway.

Lana continued with her story "He promised that he would give me half the candy apple if I rode the Ferris wheel with him."

"I have to give it to you, Lover Boy." I delivered to Brennan with an impressed laugh "You are pretty smooth."
