Chapter 68 – Ethan Stands up for Jane
3rd Person
Ethan glanced at Jane out of the corner of his eye. She’ been incredibly tense all evening, even with the pups. They were currently preparing dinner together, and every time Ethan came near her her little body wound up as tight as a spring. He couldn’t keep quiet anymore after she jumpec three feet in the air from a light touch on the waist, simply be cause he’d wanted to nudge her out of the way of the silver ware drawer.
“Janey, what’s going on? You’re being as skittish as a star tled rabbit.” He asked, turning her to face him.
“Nothing.” She uttered, averting her gaze.
“Eyes.” He ordered, noting the way she squirmed against him rather than obey. “Now, little wolf.” He ordered. Jane gradually peeked up at him from beneath her lashes, sulking as she caved to his authority. “Tell me the truth.”
“Nothing’s wrong,” She repeated, “I’m just tired.”
Ethan growled, but before he could ask her anything more, a knock sounded at the door. “This isn’t over.” He in formed her sternly, going to answer the knock. When the door swung open, he found the murder investigator waiting on the other side.
“Detective, come in.” The sound of a glass breaking filled the air, and Ethan turned to see Jane staring at the door with wide eyes, the wine glass she’d been holding a moment ago now smashed at her feet. “Are you okay?” He asked, worriedly, trying to recall whether or not she was wearing anything on

She recovered quickly, turning to grab a broom, “I’m fine, sorry.”
“Just give us a sec.” Ethan told the investigator going to help Jane. Rounding the counter he saw a pair of house slip pers on her feet, and she held up a hand to him. “I’ve got it, Ethan. Go talk to the investigator.”
“Actually I’m here to speak with you, Ms Blackwell.” The detective replied.
Ethan was so distracted by the way Jane’s shoulders slumped in defeat, that he almost didn’t notice the officer call ing her by the correct name – almost. “What’s this about?”
“Well I came to follow up on our conversation at the funer al.” He explained, baffling Ethan and making Jane deflate even

“Oh really?” The detective questioned slyly, eyeing Jane in a way Ethan didn’t like one bit. “I suppose I shouldn’t make anything of that, should I?” He gloats. “Now, I know you want ed to have a lawyer for our next meeting, but -”
