Jaxen POV
“I don't spend every waking moment with you because I thought you hated that kind of attention. I was trying to give you enough space to feel comfortable around me.”
I'd finally realized what Scarlett had been complaining about.
She thought I'd spent too much of the day ignoring her.
I stopped kneading the dough and leaned over to kiss her forehead.
“I didn't realize you'd rather have my attention on you every second than have room to breathe.”
“Who said that?”
Scarlett pressed her forehead firmly, giving the impression that I had completely lost whatever sanity I had left.
“I want to go home as soon as possible! I only agreed to stay here because you promised me half your assets. What makes you think I want your attention every second of the day?”
“Sorry.”
I apologized
