Epilogue

Anna grabbed a mug from her kitchen cabinet. It was nice to be back home, in her regular routine. She checked her cell phone after hearing it beep.

Miss you already. –O

Anna smiled at the message as she poured herself a cup of coffee. She grabbed her newspaper and sat at her kitchen table. The murders in Westchester had been covered up. They were chalking the murder up to some heinous animal mauling. It was believable enough to put the people in the town at ease. There was picture of a large brown bear shot dead with the local police chief. Anna shook her head in disgust. Anna once again turned her attention to her phone beeping.

Morning gorgeous. Debriefing with Brookes. 9 AM sharp.

"Damon flirts even in texts, huh?" Remy said from behind, kissing Anna good morning on her neck. His touch sent chills all over her skin.

"Remind you of anyone?" Anna replied, kissing him in return. "Ah'm surprised you're up. You were awake all night."

"Well," Remy sighed, "someone kept me up all night."

"Ah don't remember ya complaining last night?" Anna replied.

"Who said I was complain'," Remy smiled. "Y' headin' out?"

"Yeah. It's already 8:30. Brookes will kill me if Ah'm late," Anna gulped down her coffee. "Still on for dinner?"

"Definitely," Remy answered. "I'll pick you up around 8."

"See you then," Anna smiled in return. She smiled inwardly at how well her life was turning out. She had a good job, a great apartment, great friends, and a wonderful boyfriend. Everything was normal. Normal. This was never a word Anna thought she would use to describe her life. But, surprisingly enough, it was exactly that. And, as she shut the door to her apartment, she knew that she wouldn't have it any other way.

So folks, that's it for Tangled Lines. I have decided to continue this reality and write about more adventures of Anna, Remy, and Damon. What do you think?

And, thanks to my wonderful reviewers. Although few, I really do appreciate the support!
