Merlin wasn't one to get nervous over meeting new people. But given that he believed this was the same woman that approached him the other day, he wasn't sure what to expect. Merlin always liked the strong, confident types, even if they didn't always like him. Still he was up and out the door by 8 just so he could walk to the restaurant.

Nimue surreptitiously glanced at the door to the restaurant. It was getting closer to the time she'd set for her meeting with the mystery man and her confidence was starting to falter.

Nimue took the opportunity to order a cup of green tea, finishing off the mimosa while hoping the champagne wouldn't affect her thinking too much. She debated commenting on his choice of beverage but chose not to, instead studying his face while he spoke to see if she could determine why he seemed so familiar. He didn't have the inherent ferocity she usually atrributed to one of the knights, but something about him spoke of home. Perhaps he was a fae of some sort, or a learned hero. Regardless, he was hot and funny - two traits she liked in a man ( ... )
