Setting aside the fact that in her past life, Cassian had been the only one to extend a helping hand to her…

In this life, since marrying him, she had often benefited from his influence, and he had helped her countless times.

Truthfully, she felt deep gratitude toward him. She believed him to be a good man.

Now, when he was in distress, how could she stand idly by?

Besides, she was his wife.

It was just a kiss!

“My lord…” Elowen clenched her fingers.

“Hmm?” Cassian’s gaze returned to her face.

“If… if you kiss me, will you feel a little better?”

“Yes.”

Elowen took a deep breath and finally made her decision. “Then… kiss me.”

With that, she closed her eyes, lifted her chin slightly, and pursed her lips.

From Cassian’s perspective, she looked more like a soldier marching bravely to her fate than a bride awaiting a kiss.

Cassian was not a man of a gentle nature at his core. Having feigned weakness this far, he saw

no reason to stop now.

His voice was low. “The wine’s effects are too strong. I don’t have the strength.”

Elowen opened her eyes a fraction. “What should we do then?”

He looked at her. “Ella, you kiss me.”

Elowen’s eyes flew wide open.

Flushed crimson, her words tumbled out in a flustered jumble. “I don’t know… I… how do I kiss? I don’t know how…”

Cassian’s large hand settled on the small of her back. “I’ll teach you. First, sit properly.”

Elowen obediently adjusted her posture. “Like this?”

At that moment, Cassian suddenly felt his wheelchair was a bit too small.

It had always sufficed for him alone, but with Elowen added, the space felt decidedly cramped.

Yet, the lack of space had its advantages.

When space is limited, one must draw exceedingly close.

“Hold me,” Cassian instructed softly.

Blushing, Elowen complied.

“Now, you may kiss.”

Elowen gave herself a fierce mental pep talk. Gritting her teeth, she leaned down and pressed her lips to his, mimicking what he had done earlier, thinking that was all there was to it.

What happened next took her by surprise.

Cassian’s lips captured hers.

Before she could process it, he gently parted her lips and deepened the kiss.

She instinctively tried to pull back, but his hand was already cradling the back of her head, leaving her nowhere to retreat.

A bizarrely practical thought flashed through Elowen’s mind. So this is what it’s like. Maybe I can write about this in my next tale.

But soon, coherent thought dissolved entirely. Lost in the sensations Cassian evoked, she lost all sense of place and purpose.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when Cassian finally released her, just as she felt. she might faint from lack of air.

Elowen was left utterly boneless, slumped against his shoulder, her breathing shallow. “My lord… are you feeling better?”

Cassian’s voice was husky. “A little better.”

Relief washed over Elowen.

A little better was good. Her effort hadn’t been in vain.

“But not completely.” Cassian added.

Elowen blinked.

“Once more,” he encouraged.

And so, Elowen found herself enlisted again.

Her eyes were misty. “How long this time?”

Cassian’s voice was a rough whisper. “Quickly.”

She sniffled. “Truly?”

“Truly.”

Before his lips met hers again, Cassian offered a considerate reminder. “Ella, remember to breathe.”

When Alaric entered the west wing courtyard, the others had long since dispersed.

He couldn’t find anyone to ask where his uncle and Elowen were, so he began searching on his own.

After circling the area, he found only one chamber with its door closed.

Curiosity drew him closer. Outside the door, he faintly heard a soft, pleading voice. The tone was unmistakable-Elowen.

He had known Elowen for years. She was a girl who knew how to plead sweetly, and he had heard her do so many times.
