Welcome to Snippet Sunday! It’s the weekly event when authors post 8 to 10 lines of things they are writing, editing, querying, or for which they’re obsessively checking sales figures! You can find the other snippets HERE.
This week I’m continuing with my fantasy WIP. Kavi is beginning to feel better after his imprisonment.
* * * *
“Good morning.” Kavi sounded tired.
Nathan searched his face. Exhaustion and pain were evident yet his eyes were clear. “You look better today. How are you feeling?” he asked gently.
“I’m well. The Magus took the horror from me…” Kavi’s voice trailed off as the water boiled over its pot. They watched it a moment, then Kavi laughed, easing the tension between them. “Making tea, Nattie?” he asked, arching a brow. “Remember the time you let the water boil over until it put the fire out?”
“That happened one time, and it was your fault for distracting me.”
Nathan bit his lip but Kavi only laughed merrily. “You’re the one who kissed me, remember.”
“Well, you are a nice diversion,” Nathan pointed out and used a stick to remove the hot pot from the stones.
Oh I’m sure it could happen again. 😉
Most likely!
Oh, I’ve been on both sides of that coin. Great snippet, Dianne. 🙂
Thanks Siobhan. 🙂
Enjoyed the snippet! So glad Kavi is feeling better.
At least for now, Karen! I do like to torture my guys a little before the happy ending.
Nice interaction between your characters.
Thanks Jtsuruoka! I like these two.
I love this snippet — it’s nice to see the two of them interacting and to get a glimpse of their back story.
A quiet moment in the midst of it all. 🙂
These two seem nice together.
They’re good friends, Elaine. They just don’t always remember that. 🙂
Love your snippets. Always pulling me in.
That makes me smile, Cecilia! 🙂
Lovely snippet … and yes, a kiss is always a welcome distraction 😉
Yes it is, Iris! Especially since they’re few and far between for these two.
Nice dynamic between the two of them. It sounds like there’s a chance for diversion again, but at least the fire is safe. XD
Sorry for taking so long to return your comment on my story.
