All the werewolves at the great manor were tensed today. It was a full moon night, and they had no idea what this night would bring for them.
Edwin was with Ruth the entire day. He had her sit in his office with plenty of food around her while he worked.
She complained frequently of boredom. She wanted to go on with her daily routine. Ida had promised to teach her a few techniques today. Also, Ruth was supposed to practice the skill of using blades from Raynold.
But Edwin cancelled all her plans without her permission.
"You need all the rest that you can get Ruth. Tonight is going to be a tough one." He kept telling her that.
At some point in the afternoon, Ruth dozed off to sleep. When she opened her eyes in the evening, she found herself spooned against Edwin's form. His lips rested on her forehead, and his arms held onto her possessively.
She couldn't believe how they fitted on the small couch, but she then realised that she was sleeping on top of Edwin and not on the couch.
