Finally, after realizing that Gavriel's men were watching her and Gavriel, Evie hid her blushing face from Gavriel. She realised belatedly that their conversation could be perceived as flirting and even showing off in front of his men!
"Your men are here, Gav." She said and the statue woke up.
Gavriel looked behind him and he cleared his throat. He had totally forgotten about them or the agreement they had to meet up to discuss on certain matters. He cleared his throat again before speaking, "Alright, now that everyone is here…" Gavriel started as if nothing happened. His hand slipped casually to the small of Evie's back before curling it possessively around her dainty waist.
