Dava, Day 17 (7)
Seeing that he was being ignored, Sur Elai could not take it anymore and directly grabbed hold of her wrist.
Usually, this would be enough to cause a scandal amongst the upper class, however, Verinia had learned from her mishap a few weeks before and was wearing handskins again.
Even though the handskins were to block her from any mishaps, they did not do anything to conceal the abnormal temperature of her skin.
She was not longer sparkling as usual, but her body was still very cold, almost like a corpse that was freezing to death.
Sur Elai was not prepared for the shock that came from grabbing her wrist and instantly released it. In his eyes, a flash of confusion and panic.
He looked at the Su'Adrit with bewilderment.
He had never in his life felt the skin of a living being who was so cold.
