Jenn bit back a retort and left, unable to shake the sense he'd told her something he didn't mean for her to know. She strode to her room, irritated by another thought. She'd felt a connection to Darian early on, as soon as she met him, but she'd never allowed herself to dwell on it, even when he sought her out almost daily to spar.

After her conversation with Xander, she couldn't help wondering if there was something more that made Darian seek her out or made her willing to humor him.
