Looking more and more interested, his father asked, \"What is the problem with her, then?\" \"She's a perfect little savage. Constitutionally incapable of guarding her tongue. Not to mention peculiar: She goes to balls but never dances, only sits in the corner. Two of the fellows I went drinking with last night said they'd asked her to waltz on previous occasions. She told one of them that a carriage horse had recently stepped on her foot, and she told the other that the butler had accidentally slammed her leg in the door.\" Gabriel took a swallow of brandy before finishing grimly, \"No wonder she's a wallflower.\" Sebastian, who had begun to laugh, seemed struck by that last comment. \"Ahhh,\" he said softly. \"That explains it.\" He was silent for a moment, lost in some distant, pleasurable memory. \"Dangerous creatures, wallflowers. Approach them with the utmost caution. They sit quietly in corners, appearing abandoned and forlorn, when in truth they're sirens who lure men to their downfall. You won't even notice the moment she steals the heart right out of your body- and then it's hers for good. A wallflower never gives your heart back.\" \"Are you finished amusing yourself?\" Gabriel asked, impatient with his father's flight of fancy. \"Because I have actual problems to deal with.\" Still smiling, Sebastian reached for some chalk and applied it to the tip of his cue stick. \"Forgive me.

His parents. The sight of them infused him with relief. At the same time, their presence unlatched all the wretched emotion he'd kept battened down until this moment. Disciplining his breathing, he stood awkwardly, his limbs stiff from spending hours on the hard chair. His father came to him first, pulling him close for a crushing hug and ruffling his hair before going to the bedside. His mother was next, embracing him with her familiar tenderness and strength. She was the one he'd always gone to first whenever he'd done something wrong, knowing she would never condemn or criticize, even when he deserved it. She was a source of endless kindness, the one to whom he could entrust his worst thoughts and fears. \"I promised nothing would ever harm her,\" Gabriel said against her hair, his voice cracking. Evie's gentle hands patted his back. \"I took my eyes off her when I shouldn't have,\" he went on. \"Mrs. Black approached her after the play- I pulled the bitch aside, and I was too distracted to notice-\" He stopped talking and cleared his throat harshly, trying not to choke on emotion. Evie waited until he calmed himself before saying quietly, \"You remember when I told you about the time your f-father was badly injured because of me?\" \"That wasn't because of you,\" Sebastian said irritably from the bedside. \"Evie, have you harbored that absurd idea for all these years?\" \"It's the most terrible feeling in the world,\" Evie murmured to Gabriel. \"But it's not your fault, and trying not to make it so won't help either of you. Dearest boy, are you listening to me?\" Keeping his face pressed against her hair, Gabriel shook his head. \"Pandora won't blame you for what happened,\" Evie told him, \"any more than your father blamed me.\" \"Neither of you are to blame for anything,\" his father said, \"except for annoying me with this nonsense. Obviously the only person to blame for this poor girl's injury is the woman who attempted to skewer her like a pinioned duck.\" He straightened the covers over Pandora, bent to kiss her forehead gently, and sat in the bedside chair. \"My son... guilt, in proper measure, can be a useful emotion. However, when indulged to excess it becomes self-defeating, and even worse, tedious.\" Stretching out his long legs, he crossed them negligently. \"There's no reason to tear yourself to pieces worrying about Pandora. She's going to make a full recovery.\" \"You're a doctor now?\" Gabriel asked sardonically, although some of the weight of grief and worry lifted at his father's confident pronouncement. \"I daresay I've seen enough illness and injuries in my time, stabbings included, to predict the outcome accurately. Besides, I know the spirit of this girl. She'll recover.\" \"I agree,\" Evie said firmly. Letting out a shuddering sigh, Gabriel tightened his arms around her. After a long moment, he heard his mother say ruefully, \"Sometimes I miss the days when I could solve any of my children's problems with a nap and a biscuit.\" \"A nap and a biscuit wouldn't hurt this one at the moment,\" Sebastian commented dryly. \"Gabriel, go find a proper bed and rest for a few hours. We'll watch over your little fox cub.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Lisa Kleypas" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/lisa-kleypas/as-the-third-evening-approached-gabriel-looked-up-blearily-as-two/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/06c/lisa-kleypas-111_awwwwwwwwwwww_as-the-third-evening-approached-gabriel_2376664.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/06c/lisa-kleypas-111_awwwwwwwwwwww_as-the-third-evening-approached-gabriel_2376664.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/06c/lisa-kleypas-111_awwwwwwwwwwww_as-the-third-evening-approached-gabriel_2376664.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“As the third evening approached, Gabriel looked up blearily as two people entered the room.
