breath away from his. “Mikayla thought to play with me and toss me aside for her rich boyfriend. Maybe I want revenge, Abigail.” Abigail shook her head, unable to tear her eyes from the smoldering green of his. Her heart sank. Was that why he’d made a production of kissing her? “Daniel had nothing to do with this.” If anything, the smoldering rage in his gaze burned hotter. “How can you defend that bastard? He ignored you.” “He didn’t ignore me,” she snapped before she realized what she was admitting to. “So then he dumped you for her,” Gabriel growled. Abigail glanced behind her and wriggled free of his grasp. Looking back at him, she lifted her nose. “I decided I wanted to be a nun.” Gabriel’s eyes went round…for at least three seconds before he threw his head back and laughed.

He looked down at her and gripped her hand, hauling her in after him. “I’m not sure I’m glad you changed your mind. I just might spill the beans anyway, you know.” About to tell him off, she bit her tongue instead when she caught sight of her mother coming down the stairs. Marjorie Brown’s blue eyes were wide as she took in the sight of Gabriel holding onto Abigail’s hand. His boots sounded loud as he crossed the room to where Daniel and Mikayla stood. Mikayla just stared blankly at the huge vase of flowers under the crystal chandelier in the middle of the foyer. Daniel smiled at Both Gabriel and Abigail as he slipped his arm around Mikayla’s waist. “Marjorie, I’d like to introduce you to Gabriel Brinks, better known as Gabriel Raven, lead singer of Diavolo.
