Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 824

Seeing the bright sparkle in Mason's eyes, Nyla's heart softened, and she nodded. "Alright."

"Thanks, Mommy!" Mason cheered and clapped his hands with joy, his face lighting up.

After playing a bit longer, Lydia arrived to take Mason for his bath and bed.

Nyla stood to leave, but Damon reached over and pulled her back into his arms.

"Nyla, now that Buddy's off to bed, don't you think we should have a little time to ourselves?" His voice was a deep, husky murmur, laced with temptation.

Nyla nudged him away, frowning. "This is the living room. People could walk in at any time—be mindful."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Damon lifted her into his arms and carried her to the study.

"What are you doing?! You scared me!" Nyla gasped, giving him a light punch in the chest.

"You said the living room wasn't a good spot. So, let's go to the study," Damon replied matter-of-factly.

They emerged from the study.

Nyla walked ahead, her face flushed, her expression tinged with embarrassed irritation. Behind her, Damon wore a satisfied smile.

When they reached the stairs and Nyla saw that Damon was still following her, she turned and gave him an exasperated look. "Why are you still here?"

Thinking back on what had just happened in the study, she felt her cheeks burn all over again. Damon had been shamelessly over the top.

Damon looked at her, a hint of longing in his eyes. "Nyla, it's been a while since we've been back together. When can I stay in your room with you?"
