His footsteps pounding on the pavement behind her. He was fast. The streets were full of people, but none of them looked concerned at the woman sprinting down the sidewalk, with a man shouting angrily after her.339Please respect copyright.PENANAYdOHmvA8OQ

She backed away, her green eyes wide. "I have to go."339Please respect copyright.PENANA8EEQDTk70T

339Please respect copyright.PENANAoRz92g2R4y
"Let me go, Daniel."339Please respect copyright.PENANAxEx3yAuKrb

His blue eyes darkened.339Please respect copyright.PENANAyAlcYO2sSS

Eden pulled from him and stumbled back into someone. She looked up to see the man from the bar. He was staring at Daniel with a hard gaze, his lips curling.339Please respect copyright.PENANApJ7vOAYN2s
339Please respect copyright.PENANAnof0Spz4fq
"Are you all right?" he asked.339Please respect copyright.PENANAjzE30gGj6u

Daniel made a move toward Eden again, and the man pushed him back.339Please respect copyright.PENANA2EJpqcTabV
339Please respect copyright.PENANAihubdxLJX2
"I warned you," he hissed.339Please respect copyright.PENANAi2axxuXchZ

After he was gone, Eden shook her head. "Thank you, but I was handling it."339Please respect copyright.PENANAqp9CxPX4Tz

"I'm sure you were," the man replied smugly. "And it looks like so many people were willing to help you with your confrontation."339Please respect copyright.PENANAsQQXeNHvGI
339Please respect copyright.PENANA3xEifC3Id4
"Sorry if I ruined your night."339Please respect copyright.PENANA1mhDKpSS8r
339Please respect copyright.PENANAzya852kRKq
He shrugged. "My night ended after my last drink. I was just heading home when you ran into me." He looked down the now empty street. "Who was he?"339Please respect copyright.PENANABEbn52svau
339Please respect copyright.PENANAnwEUtQviif
"Daniel," she replied, frowning.339Please respect copyright.PENANA9k92Rik8oq

"Is he your boyfriend?"339Please respect copyright.PENANA8olR5z5PAA
339Please respect copyright.PENANAe2hxiSZf1d
"Was." She looked into his gray eyes as they walked down the sidewalk. "He's changed a lot since we've been together."339Please respect copyright.PENANAD3T3XF9HHo
339Please respect copyright.PENANAqSNxWod6KE
He grinned briefly. "I'm sorry, I've forgotten my manners. I'm John."339Please respect copyright.PENANAUKqbViKdYp

"Be careful on your way," John said softly as he started in the opposite direction. "You never know who you may run into." 339Please respect copyright.PENANASGo1qoyGah
