Time of the Druids Dunskey Castle Book 6

From Book 1, Tavish
“You know me,” she reminded him. “Which way would I find more interesting?”
He pointedly looked at her Celtic University ring.
“I’m not really sure I do know you well anymore, but the Kelsey I remember, the
adventurous one, she would have insisted on checking out the passage down to the
secret doors.”
“I’ll make you a deal,” she said to him.
Wow. He gave her a soft look that she never thought she’d see again. It made her
want to hug him…
“I’m listening,” he said.
Right. They were just talking. What was she saying, again? Oh yeah. The deal.
“I’ll be the Kelsey you remember, if you’ll be the Tavish I remember.”
Oops. What had made her say that?
The soft look left his eyes, replaced by wariness.
“You know what—” he started.
But she cut him off.
“Not for always, Tavish, just for this tour of the passageways, okay?”
He sighed heavily, and sadness filled his face while his posture relaxed as if he’d
been ready for a big something and then just given up.
“Okay, but Kelsey, when this tour is done, promise me you’ll go into Mr. Blair’s
trailer and stay in there until the sun comes up. Please, promise me.”
Taken aback by just how desperately worried for her he seemed, she agreed to his
terms without any negotiation.
“I promise.”
He visibly relaxed.
“Thanks, Kelsey.”
And then his eyes were looking far away, and he started to reach out to her, and
then let his hands drop.
She stomped her foot to get his attention, to make him look her in the eye. Okay,
and maybe she was trying to get him to laugh a little, too. She’d always found foot
stomping ridiculous.
“What’s wrong, Tavish?”
But it didn’t work. He looked away.
“I can’t tell you.”
