Chapter 209 – Fries
–LIA’S POV–
I wanted to tell him I loved him.
But before the words would leave my mouth, my stomach roared like a dinosaur, cutting me off.
I blinked, the heat of my eyes dying down.
Zane grinned, mischief glinting in his eye.
The way my heart warmed at that look on his face.
I’d missed it more than words could express.

“Someone’s hungry,” he poked my tummy, making me squeal.
“Don’t do that,” I scolded, smiling.
“What do you wanna eat?” he asked, wrapping his arms around my waist.
“You, honestly,” I replied.
Zane cocked up a brow. “I’m supposed to say that, not you.”
I laughed. “Why? Do I not have feelings?”
“I don’t know, you tell me. You’re a goddess, after all. Aren’t you above human emotions like feelings?”

My stomach grumbled again, ruining yet another moment of quiet fondness.
Zane laughed, shaking his head. “We need to leave. You can’t stay hungry for longer. You’re starving.”
“I’m fine,” I cried, shaking with giggles. “God, my body is trying to embarrass me.”
“Let’s go,” he said, climbing off the bed.
I did the same, taking his hand and linking our fingers together. “What if we take the Hounds too?” I asked.
Zane frowned. “Am I not enough for you anymore, high and mighty Goddess Lia?”
I shot him a look. “I just want some normalcy. Like the last time we hit that burger spot.”
Zane snorted. “Nothing was normal about that outing. And you’re right, we actually pretty much ‘hit‘ it. That poor joint was left in shambles after we left.”
I laughed, covering my face. “That’s not what I meant.”
“That’s exactly what you meant, love. Don’t try to cover it up now. You just wanna go there and scare some humans with your new powers.”
