It All Started With Hatred-Chapter 131: Always do things like this

The next morning was Sunday and Petal was glad that it was the weekend. The events of yesterday were still fresh in her head and feeling a pair of strong arms warped around her waist didn’t help to make her forget about her embarrassment.

Petal felt that what happened yesterday was a sin. A sweet pleasurable one sin. Slowly removing his arms from around her. She got off the bed. Heading to the bathroom before he wakes up.

After taking a shower. Petal felt refreshed. Wearing a new set of clothes. She stepped out of the bathroom.

Petal noticed how the house was warm despite the cold weather and the snow that was covering everything. Ethan made sure to add new logs before he went to bed. She noticed that since she told him about how it’s hard for her to keep her hands warm during the winter, He took extra care of the house being warm and he always brought a blanket with him when she was in his car.

To think that their relationship will turn out to be like this a year ago. She would have thought that it was impossible. Both she and him had lived a difficult life. He had to bear the responsibility of his family name as a mafia man and she had to put up with her father’s greed for money and power.

But they had put all this behind them now and started a new page. A clean, fresh one. Ethan has proved that he’s serious towards her and wants their relationship to progress. Petal loved the fact that they are taking slow steady steps, not rushing things. They are still getting to know each other.

Walking towards the kitchen. Petal started to make breakfast. She was Surprised that Ethan had not woken up until now. He’s always up early before her. Opening the fridge. She picked up the ingredients that she needed to prepare the breakfast.

She didn’t know why. But this morning her appetite was very open and she wanted to eat. Petal had developed the habit of skipping meals when she was twelve years old. At that age, she started to notice how her father was looking at her. She started to understand that he doesn’t love her and views her as a burden, a mistake in his life.

Now, these memories don’t bother her. But she always wondered why her parents didn’t try to have another child. She guessed maybe because they feared that the child would be born like her. Thinking about this. PetaI wondered if in the future she had a child. Will it be like her?.

"Petal." Ethan called her name when he entered the kitchen.

Petal turned to look at him but she wasn’t given the chance to look at him poorly as he walked towards her in five long strides and pulled her in her arms. Hugging her tightly.

Petal’s body froze for a moment before she relaxed. She was completely shocked by what just happened. Petal realized that his heart was beating fast. She could feel it. But what made him wake up like this?

Warping her arms around him. She tried to comfort him by rubbing his back soothingly but he was too big for her to hold him with her hands. But she tried anyway.

Ethan’s grip on Petal tightened. He wanted to make sure that this wasn’t a dream because he just had a bad one. His big hands easily enveloped her small form. His head was buried in her neck. Smelling her beautiful roses sent. Her hair was a little dumb and he realized that she just left the bed to shower and eat her breakfast.

Petal tapped on Ethan’s back telling him that he was holding her tightly and he immediately pulled away. "I’m sorry. Did I hurt you?" He asked worriedly.

Petal smiled at him and shook her head no. She brought her hands to his face cupping it and he leaned into his touch. He seemed afraid. restless for some reason. Standing on her toes. Petal pressed her lips on his forehead before she pulled away looking at him shyly.

"This made me feel good. Always do things like this." Ethan said feeling less restless with her kiss.

"What happened?" Petal asked. signaling.

Ethan didn’t answer. instead. He picked the toast and started to eat it. PetaI had prepared this one for her. She put extra butter and jam on it and it tasted so good."This is good." He said after he finished eating it.

Petal glared at him and picked up another toast to make another one. While she wasn’t looking at him. Ethan sighed in relief. He thought that she left him. It was ridiculous of him. But the dream felt too real and when opened his eyes to find the bed empty, he felt a hole in his chest at the thought of her leaving him.

"Go sit on the table. The breakfast is almost ready." Petal signaled to him before pushing towards the table.

"No. I will help ..." Ethan wanted to finish his words but Petal shut him up by placing her hand on his mouth.

Petal pointed at the table telling him to sit down and let her prepare the breakfast and he did. Ethan was fascinated by the bossy side of her. He liked it to the point that it turned him on. Actually. Everything she does turns him on. He thought to himself.

Petal finished putting the breakfast on the table and was about to sit down when Ethan grabbed her wrist and said."No. Sit beside me."

Petal didn’t object and sat beside him. She was about to pick up the butter spreader when Ethan grabbed it before her."I will do it for you." He said.

Petal nodded her head and picked up her fresh orange juice sipping from it as she watched him spread the butter on the beard and then the strawberry jam before he handed it to her.

Ethan had been keeping an eye on the food that Pedal was eating3. He noticed that eats healthy and drinks a lot of water. When he first met her he didn’t think that she is the kind of girl who knows her way around the kitchen. But here she is impressing him every day.
