    Summary

    Frank huffed, setting the mug down. “How many times are we going to have to go over this, Mel? I like listening to you talk. I’m not just being nice. We’re friends.”

    “It’s important to ask,” she said, still watching him carefully. “Because sometimes people say they want to know something but they don’t actually mean that they do. They’re just being polite. And it’s hard for me to tell that, always.”

    “I’ll tell you what,” he suggested. “Let’s make this easy. With me, you never have to ask. Consider it my… blanket approval, I guess.”

    He pointed to himself. “I, Frank Langdon, am interested in what you have to say.”

    Trinity smirked. “Personally I think you can do better, Mel.”

    “Because he’s married?”

    “Because he sucks.”

     

     

    Or, five times that Mel was honest with other people and one time someone was honest with her.

    Summary

    “Okay, Mel, twist my arm! I’ll go with you to your aunt’s wedding.”

    “What?! That’s not at all what I was—” She cut herself off when he looked at her with a very distinct Frank Langdon Sparkle in his eyes. “Oh, you’re joking. Ha ha, very funny.”

    “Well, half-joking, yeah.” He started backing into a parking spot, his body twisted towards hers so he could see behind them. “I will go to the wedding with you, though.”

    Summary

    "I want to see."

    "Wh-what?" Mel blinked at his sudden words. Langdon tilted his head down toward her and held the bear out. Mel felt dizzy with déjà vu as he gestured for her to take it.

    "I want to see what you did to him. Show me."

    Mel took the bear slowly, her mind whirling too fast to keep up with. She had never felt so confused and so turned on in all her life. "You want me to…?"

    "Yes." Langdon's gaze was dark and cool as he regarded her, but she didn't miss the rapid rise and fall of his chest as he spoke. "Show me exactly what you did last night to the prize I won you."

    The day after Langdon wins Mel a teddy bear at the county fair, which she then used for… less-than-innocent purposes, she is determined to leave her crush on the married man behind. But when Mel accidentally sends him an indecent picture involving the bear, she realizes this crush might not be one she can ever recover from.

    Summary

    Mel King was a creature of habit.

    There was a specific sort of choreography to her life beyond the chaos of the Emergency Department. A carefully controlled routine, a color-coded calendar, a rigid set of rituals that kept her grounded enough to keep showing up day after day, to keep on doing the work that was required of her to save lives.

    Everything was going fine for Mel. Her personal life was predictable, unexciting, and perfectly fulfilling, thank you very much.

    Enter Frank Langdon, agent of chaos.
