Bab 79: 79: A shaking truth [pt2]

"How is your body feeling now? What about the wound on your back? Do you want me to check it for you-"

Elysia's hand was brushed off even before it could touch Adam's back. It would have been an insulting gesture if not for Adam's flushed cheeks and his inability to look at Elysia.

And with that expression came the memory of what happened back in the cave and Adam's sudden confession.

"Leave it be. It's thought enough for me to resist without you touching me. I won't be responsible for my actions if you made a foolish move now."

It was taking everything in Adam to admit that. Elysia could see his hands shaking with effort and she instantly backed off.

She did feel sorry for Adam but now was not the time for it. Even more so because Eve was not here with them to discuss things.

Even if Adam and Eve assured Elysia that there was nothing between them, Elysia's brain refused to believe that fact.
