The Lady Machinist (Curiosity Chronicles Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
She brought a hand to her mouth, where her lips remained tender from Rhys’ kiss. She thought of him for a long time last night before sleep finally overcame her. Lydia didn’t know what made her more unsettled, the way Rhys so easily took command of her emotions and body, or the fact that she could not experience that closeness again with him so long as he remained secretive. She turned on her side, drawing the blanket around her shoulders. Daylight grew stronger, coloring the navigation room in dusty grays and blues. Finley would soon be in to check the instruments. She needed to be up and out of his way. Lydia went outside and found the cask of water Rhys left by the door. She retreated into the room to wash and dress. Finley arrived just as she carted her belongings outside. He barely made eye contact with her before he shut himself inside the room. Lydia saw the sun peeking behind a filmy veil of clouds. At least there would be little chance of storms today. “There you are.”
