Her Stallion

Ravina felt like her face was falling off again. She had tried her best not to remember the incident but never in her life had she been through something so embarrassing. She had grasped a man in his most private area. What else was left to touch now? And not only that, she had grasped so hard she had actually caused him pain. Ugh. She wished the ground could open up and swallow her. 

She went to her room, in rush looking for better shoes to go out with while still burning. While wearing her shoes, she recalled his desperate hold on her hand. Even when he fell asleep, he didn't let her go. 

He was scared, she noticed. Scared she would leave. It was the first time she had seen him truly vulnerable. Not even in the cave with all the torture did he show any hint of vulnerability. Not this kind anyway.
