Giovanni’s Angel. Each week I will post approximately 100 – 150 words from this
installment of the series. Please visit the

Eternal
Curse: Giovanni’s Angel chapter 5
As she stepped out onto the deck, there stood
Giovanni looking taller and grander than he had the day before. He was holding
out a steaming mug towards her with a handsomely subtle smirk on his face.
“Warm green tea cocoa for you?” he asked, placing the warm mug in her hand.
Giovanni tried to shield the warmth of the mug and the touch of his hand with a
thin cloth beneath it, but he still managed to send yet another jolt of energy
through her body, as he brushed the edge of her finger.
“Green tea cocoa,” Mira inquired with a
giggle, “how does that work exactly?”
“Just try it,” replied Giovanni. “It’s very
chocolaty and amazingly refreshing and rejuvenating.” Mira took a sip and
smiled, it was truly delicious. The steamy chocolate mixture soothed her
throat, warmed her tummy, and perked up all her senses.
