Chapter 6 - Lily Describes the Man in Anonymous Tuxedo Again
The morning sun filtered through the heavy velvet drapes of the west wing suite, casting golden light across the floor.
Lily woke up early, padding across the plush carpet in her pink pajama pants to find me in the sitting room.
“Mommy, I'm hungry,” she announced softly, rubbing her sleepy eyes with both hands.
Before I could answer, the door opened quietly, and Dominic walked in carrying a silver breakfast tray.
He had already changed into a fresh charcoal-gray suit, looking as imposing and sharp as ever.
“Good morning, Lily,” Dominic said, setting the tray down on the low coffee table with practiced ease.
Lily climbed onto the sofa, eyeing the fresh pancakes and sliced strawberries with instant approval.
“Did you catch the bad man yet?” Lily asked between bites of maple-syrup-drenched pastry.

Dominic knelt beside the sofa, his expression darkening slightly at her innocent question.
“Not yet, sweetheart, but I need you to tell me one more thing about him,” Dominic urged gently.
