Chapter 188
- HAZEL -
I have a grumpy face on. I woke up with it. Showered with it and even dressed up with it.
Thanks to Killian, my chin hurts but he sure as hell put me in my place last night. Right exactly where I needed to be. It was needed but I guess I didn’t realise how much needed it was. I guess I never really expected him to give me the tough love.
One thing I know for sure is that I don’t like it even though part of me knows deep down that I do. Or more like did. I was putting up an attitude I shouldn’t even have. Especially not now.
I walk out of my room and head down the stairs, following the alluring aroma that woke me up in the first place. I don’t know what it is or who it is that’s cooking but that sure smells delicious!
Part of me wonders if when the chef was cooking, I was in mind because after last night, I won’t be stunned if I wasn’t. I head to the dinning room first. The table is clear and no one is here. This is when I summon courage to go to the kitchen.
“Rise and shine, honey, have a nice sleep?” Killian asks before I made my presence obvious. I am still at the door. I make a face, walking in sluggishly. His tone is calm and warm.
Tch. I pout. “Yeah, you?” I ask, avoiding eye contact. My attention is on the meal outlined on the kitchen counter. They look yummy.
“Very nicely actually.” He says, poised. “Thank you for asking.”
