Tea time prophesies, accidental insta-love, and dealing with one’s demons.
Eden: Nana once told me, “Never get in bed with the devil.”
I assumed she meant to stay away from bad men.
If anyone got hurt because I didn’t listen to The Knowing, I’d never, ever forgive myself.
After a tipsy encounter with a guy who was hotter than Hades itself, I thought I’d found the one.
I’d barely survived my first broken heart. Not even the fires of Hell would fuse it back together if it shattered a second time.
Finding out his real name was like a bucket of cold water on the flames of my fascination.
The thing that scared me the most? My Nana’s never been wrong before.

Eric: I’d never been a superstitious person.
But after what Eden told me, I could understand why she was afraid.
I did everything in my power to help her trust me.
The fire between us was too powerful to be denied.
Yet if I pushed too hard, I might become the evil man she’d been warned about.

Eden, I know I’m supposed to pretend to be cool and wait a few days to text you. I can’t play games. I think you’re incredible. May I take you out for a proper date this Friday night?

* What’s in a Name? *
Reasons why you might not get back to me:
Zombies. Work emergency. Vacation in a hippie commune that doesn’t allow cell phones.
You live in a complicated apartment where everything is monogrammed with E for Eden, and you’re terrified someone named Eric would mess up your system. I’ll gladly change my name to see you again. How about Nermal? Or Thornton?
If it’s something I did wrong, please know I’d do absolutely anything to make it up to you, and be given another chance.

A: Patricia said that you took the jet to Vancouver? What's wrong? Did the Wrenwyck project go sideways?
E: Everything’s fine. A friend’s mother is in the hospital, and she had no way to get there in time to meet her mother after surgery.
A: E, are you being a good Samaritan? Or are you trying to impress that girl? Sometimes I can't tell with you.
E: I'll have you know that the charming lady I am with is swiftly becoming the love of my life. She needs help right now, so I'm helping her.
A: Wow. You actually used the L-word. I'm rather impressed.
In that case, tell me if there is anything I can do to help. I’ll take care of things here. Stay in touch.
E: Thanks, sis. You are a superstar.
A: Never forget that.
