"You...!" Ophelia could not speak. She put her hands over her face and lowered her head.
Nikolai's eyes reverted to their wolf-like red hue. "Shall we have our wedding night right now?"
"I..." Slowly, Ophelia took her hands off her face and muttered shyly. "Not in the cave, Lai Lai."
"You want a nice, comfortable bed, don't you?" His nose brushed hers as he whispered. "Or are you shy because we are not alone?"
Ophelia breathed softly and closed her eyes. She was becoming more and more affected by Nikolai every second. His voice, his touch, his gaze, his words... She felt exceptionally glad that this being was her husband. She wasn't letting him go. Never.
"Nik!" Suddenly, Rhaziel, who was out at the cave's entrance, shouted out.
However, Nikolai seemed to have become completely deaf because he did not respond to the demon's call.
"Lia!" Called Esmeralda. She was on the far side of the cave's entrance as well.
