Your Skin Is Soft

For her, I was alive today. Was it not enough reason for me to like her and make her mine? 

The feast ended with satisfied faces. I warned others not to make Cassie feel uncomfortable in any way. That's why the female werewolves kept themselves away from her. 

She had calmed down after a long time- I could not afford to frighten her again with anything. 

"You both shall return to your room now," Mother announced. 

Cassie turned bright red like a ruby instantly. She glanced down on her lap, avoiding everyone's gaze. Evelyn was shaking with laughter. 

I gave her a death glance to shut her stupid laughter. It was making Cassie uncomfortable... though I wanted to tease her as well. 

"Let's go now, my wife," I said into her ear. 

"Everyone is looking at us, Ash," she mumbled. "It's embarrassing..."

Ash- did she just call me Ash? Why did it feel so special? And before I knew it, I had started to grin like a fool.
