Chapter 15 - Violet

Nothing about last night’s tryst in the garden with Nile had been planned or expected, but this morning it was all I could think about. I woke up in my own room, alone, and wished that I had been waking up with him instead. The sex had been phenomenal but short-lived. I wished I had given myself more time to look into his emerald eyes or feel the powerful muscles of his arms. In the harsh light of day I wasn’t sure I would get that chance without feeling embarrassed by my gawking.

I hadn’t been with another man since Nile had left me six years ago, and I was shocked that even with the passage of time and the quickness of our meeting, the sex had been even better this time around. Every place he had touched me had made me feel more alive and desirable than I thought humanly possible. Just the thought of it made it hard for me to breathe properly.

But even with the obvious chemistry between us, I felt barely able to face him in the light of day. I waited until I heard Penny go downstairs for breakfast before I followed so that I wouldn’t be forced to have a conversation with Nile about last night. At least with Penny awake, we wouldn’t have to talk about what passed between us. I wasn’t ready to acknowledge to my mate that our connection had grown deeper than I’d intended.

“Good morning,” Nile said as I came into the kitchen. “You look hungry. Can I get you some breakfast?”

He was smiling knowingly at me, and I wondered if he was going to say something about last night. Hopefully, not in front of his daughter.

“Maybe just some coffee,” I replied.

“Of course. Nothing better than some caffeine after a late night,” he said with a wink.

I narrowed my eyes at him as he poured my coffee and added a splash of cream. He passed the cup to me and went back to mixing the pancakes for Penny’s breakfast.

“Did you need some help making the bacon?” I asked in a bid to be helpful.

“I would love your help sticking the meat in,” Nile said cheekily.

“Nile!” I said, horrified that he was using a double entendre in front of his daughter.

“What?” he said sheepishly. “I just want you to put the bacon in the oven. It makes it easier to clean up than if you cook it in the skillet, and it bakes it evenly.”

I rolled my eyes at him but placed the pieces of bacon on a baking sheet and turned the oven on. Soon, the smell of bacon and pancakes wafted through the air.

“Here you go, Penelope,” I said, plating some food for the little girl.

“Aren’t you guys gonna eat?” she asked, taking a large bite of syrup-covered pancakes.

I shook my head and took another sip of my coffee before beginning to clean up the kitchen. Nile had started loading the dirty dishes into the washer when I realized I needed the dishcloth that was still in the sink behind him.
