Aeloria was too embarrassed to meet his eyes. Her cheeks burned as she anxiously muttered in her mind.
"Oh no, I thought I made sure to cover it with some fabric"
When she had woken up that morning, she realized her period had started. In a rush, she had taken a bath and cleaned herself thoroughly.
Afterward, she searched through the closet and found an unused piece of white fabric. Without thinking twice, she folded and wrapped it around her lower part, hoping it would be enough to hold for the time being.
She was too embarrassed to look at Alexander, her eyes fixed on the floor as silence hung between them, she was so vulnerable at this moment.
Alexander watched her quietly. When she said nothing, he let out a soft sigh, walked over to the stove, and turned the heat down.
Without a word, he gently lifted her into his arms.
Aeloria gasped softly, her body tensing as she suddenly found herself lifted off the ground, she was weightless in his arms.
