Chapter 25: A Podium Just Makes This Official
Gabriel POV
Gabriel woke early, sipping on coffee in his kitchen and watching the sun rise over the red rocks in the distance. Where his section on the compound was, he could see nature for miles. He was pondering about the research notes he had taken for Lucy on nymph lore.
Supposedly nymphs were fairies in a sense; a nature deity that had different personifications of different habitats. Mermaids could even be associated with nymphs. They were usually beautiful, enticing maidens who could seduce men.
Perhaps that's another reason why he was so attracted to Lucy. He stretched as he thought about it more. He wondered about her recent discovery and had been thinking of her all night long.
From what he gathered in helping his beloved with her research, nymphs were often viewed as sexually attractive women, nature guardians, and kindly disposed toward men. Nymphs could also be male but there were differences for them as well.
