Deleted Scene: Khyff and Fawni Dine with Family #SciFi #Romance #Excerpt For Her Only by Kayelle Allen

For Her Only by Kayelle Allen #SciFi #Romance

This was deleted from For Her Only. I always liked the scene, but it didn't add to the story, so it ended up on the cutting room floor. I saved it for a rainy day, and decided it would work on my blog.

Setting up the Scene

Here's a peek at Khyff and Mehfawni on her homeworld as they're getting ready for dinner with her family. Unknown to Fawni, her grandmother has threatened to kill Khyff, which is the real reason he is afraid of the woman.

He can't tell her or he'll blow his cover. Tight situation for him.

"Fair warning, Khyffy." Mehfawni fastened his shirt and slid her hands across his chest. "My grandmama will be there when we go to dinner."

The sharp spark of his fear pierced the air. He quelled it immediately, but she could not miss the sensation. "Um, Fawni? Will I have to sit next to her?"

"No. I'll put you between me and my father. Tovar will be across from you. But we don't eat at a table the way humans do."

"I've been to a Kin restaurant back on Tarth. They had a pit under a low table where you put your feet." He cocked his head. "Is it like that?"

"Yes."

A hint of pleasure wafted from him as he smiled.

"Our utensils are like yours. Sharp knife, spoon, a piercer. Like a fork but with two tines. Napkin. But we're not as dainty as humans. We burp after we eat. It means the food was good."

"You burp?" He scoffed. "You're such a lady. I can't imagine that."

"Me?" Mehfawni covered her mouth and giggled. "I'm a warrior, Khyffy. Oh, I burp. I thought you were too polite for such things."

"Trust me." He rubbed his nose against hers. "I manage an awesome burp now and then. Usually when I'm around other guys."

"Fawni." Her father's voice sounded through the door. "Dinner time."

Khyff offered a faltering smile. "I'm ready."

She took his hand and smiled back. "Let's eat."

Nice scene…I think it is cool to see the stuff that gets deleted.

Thanks, Savannah. I like DVDs that have the deleted scenes – studying those and hearing the commentary on why the director deleted them has helped me be a better writer. And feel better about cutting lines that I really liked. 😉
