Bab 210: More Than Just Biting

"My Queen, do you know why your heart is beating like this?"

A soft smile lingered on Drayce's devilishly handsome face as he asked the question towards the young woman with a blushing face. Because he had pressed her cold hands against his cheeks, their bodies had closed the little distance there was initially between them. It allowed him to appreciate her veiled appearance up close, especially those beautiful jewel-like purple eyes. 

The young queen could only stare into his red eyes in bewilderment. It was as if her head was in a fog. She was confused by her body's reaction, and she was even more confused by his action. She wanted to pull her hands away from his face, but his hands would not let go of hers; his strength was something she could never compete with.

Drayce continued to look at his flustered wife, waiting to get her answer. Her entire face, even her ears, were pink under his intense gaze.
