Hickey

Eva's brows furrowed in confusion as she followed Akuna's gaze to her neck. 

She reached up to touch the area where Akuna was looking, feeling the tenderness of the bruise beneath her fingertips.

"Why are you looking at my neck?" Eva asked, her voice laced with curiosity. 

She couldn't recall any recent incident that would have caused such a mark, and Akuna's concern only added to her confusion.

Akuna's surprise grew as she realized that Eva seemed oblivious to the significance of the mark.

 Typically, Eva would shrink away at the mere mention of anything intimate, yet here she was, nonchalant about a prominent bruise on her neck. 

It dawned on Akuna that Eva might not even know what the mark was.

"Eva, do you... do you know what that mark is?" Akuna asked cautiously, her voice tinged with concern.

Eva's confusion deepened as Akuna's question hung in the air.
