"Stop tempting me. I am already in heat like this –" Gideon groaned out as he squeezed his eyes shut, trying his best not to jump Vera right there and then.
Vera's eyes suddenly widened. The word 'heat' finally reminded her again about Gideon's condition. He was having something like a fever! She had totally forgotten about it!
"R-right! Heat! Your abnormal temperature, we still need to do something about that first!" Vera placed her palm over his head, panicking again when she felt how hot he had gotten since earlier. Even though he had told her that dark faes do not get fevers, she still could not ignore this. She had never felt him this hot before so she could only deduce even to the dark faes, this was not something normal and harmless as he had implied it was!
"I think I should go ask for help. Evie… she can definitely –" Vera muttered as much to herself as to Gideon.
