Yula did something with her fingers, and in response, a small mirror with a wooden handle came flying from one of the drawers of Ember’s dresser.
The mirror that was floating in the air stopped in front of Ember. The human girl looked at the item with a puzzled gaze before redirecting her gaze at Yula.
“Miss, I want you to see what I am seeing,” she heard Yula say. “Take a good look at yourself in this mirror.”
With her hands shivering a little for some unknown reason, Ember held the handle of that mirror floating in front of her and stared at the reflection of her image.
Her face!
There was nothing wrong with it, though she found her expression unfamiliar due to her pink color on her cheeks that seemed to be spreading to the rest of her face. Her gaze followed her neck where she saw that crimson blossom tattoo but…there was more. Her neck had some reddish marks that looked like small fading bruises and those surprised her.
She touched them with cold fingers. “This…”.
“I believe Miss knows exactly why those appeared,” she heard Yula again.
Ember looked at Yula in a daze for a moment, but then, a sudden thought struck her mind. Before the King bit her…
She remembered back when she was in bed with the red-eyed man. Before she passed out, the feel of his mouth on her skin…
Ember gulped and her face turned redder than ever.
Draven was doing something and she still remembered how much she liked it. Instead of resisting, she clutched on his clothes, her hands pulling and tugging to keep him close. She didn’t know what was happening but she wanted him to continue. That strange feeling in her body, she liked it. Every time she was close to the King, she felt an influx of complicated emotions that she liked despite not understanding them.
‘Why am I feeling hot…?’
For some odd reason, she felt shy seeing her reflection in the mirror. She put it down but kept a grip on it as she cupped her cheek with her other hand, chanting that she needed to calm down. Instead, she felt her face grow hotter the more she denied her unnamed feelings.
She looked at Yula for help. The entire time, the elf merely watched her while sitting calmly in her chair, her expression still the same polite one she had since she came in.
Ember felt more embarrassed seeing the calm elf. She didn’t know why she was even like this. However, she belatedly realized this was why Reya and Clio were smiling earlier while sharing teasing glances among themselves.
“I…know…how… I got it.”
Yula let out a nod like she completely understood what Ember was going through. “Like I mentioned earlier, scents are important for mates in order to complete the consummation. What’s happening to you, Miss, what you are experiencing, this is how scent affects the mated pair. Attraction is how the consummation starts. Both mates spend intimate times with each other and then by giving in to your desires, consummate the bond–or you can say, consummate the wedding.”
