Kristin spared him just the minutest of glances before she went back to her work. “Actually, I’m not,” she told him.
“I haven’t seen you around,” he told her. “And I always notice beautiful women.”
“Well, I guess you missed one this time,” she responded, carefully separating two bones that looked as if they had been fused together by grit and time.
Rather than annoying him, the flippant way she’d answered what was clearly a line—he hadn’t been trying to be subtle—seemed to oddly attract him to an even greater extent.
Crouching down beside the woman, he said, “Let’s start over.”
The look she gave him would have withered a lesser man.
“Maybe later. I’m working now.” Her expression turned impatient. “And you’re in my light again.”
“Right.”
To accommodate her, Malloy rose to his feet, taking care to allow the sunlight to stream over and bathe the bones laid out before her.
This one, he told himself, was going to be a tough nut to crack.
And he couldn’t wait to get started.
