At that moment, Komer's consciousness seemed to clear up a lot. He lifted Grace's body and had her stand on the bed he used for meditation. The bewildered Grace didn't even know where to place her hands and feet, and out of sheer embarrassment, she could only hold her burning cheeks with both hands, presenting herself before Komer with an elegant poise.

The quiet room was so silent that Grace, overwhelmed with shyness, peeked through the gaps between her fingers and saw Komer even take two steps back, standing before her, silently appraising her. His cool gaze held no lust at that moment, only admiration and infatuation, as if he were admiring a perfect piece of artwork.
