She may not immediately catch someone’s eye, but the longer they looked at her, the more at ease they would feel. Eventually, standing next to her, they would feel completely at peace.

Perhaps this was her magic, which made it harder and harder for him to extricate himself from her.

The gazes of those men made him feel as if his carefully guarded treasure was being coveted.
