Chapter 49: Cooling Her Down
William gently laid Ava on his bed, her breath was hollow and her features held beams of sweat, could this be that his cold aura wasn’t working? How come? He checked her pulse, her skin alone was burning, this wasn’t about what happened that caused her to faint out of embarrassment... This was something more.
So he aimed to find the source of the heat taking over her body, he held her firm in his arms and placed a hand on her back, the upper part of it, and that was when he felt it... the source of the heat taking over Ava’s body... if he had just been any other magical being his hand would have burnt off in the heat, but this was nothing he couldn’t handle.
He pulled the sleeve of her shirt down and his green orbs fell on her mark, it was redder than the rest of her skin like it was a burnt imprint. He was familiar with the mark of a fairy. A vermillion red tattoo, tiny and well crafted, a birthmark she was born with and consist of a butterfly, but the craft was different from the normal one you usually see, the wings were like a craft curl design down to the last detail, like it took so much time being forged on her skin.
That was what caught William’s undying attention, for he knew what a fairy tattoo should look like but this was completely different, it looked alien to him, or was this a pattern he was yet to know about?
Her sudden groan in pain caught his attention, and the tattoo made a hissing sound as it continued to burn through her skin.
"Fuck!" he cursed silently to himself, if he doesn’t act this will definitely burn her skin off or worse. So he did the only thing he could without a second thought, he ripped her clothes off.
"Forgive me Ava" he mumbled to himself. He was doing something unrefined but he had no choice, it wasn’t like it was a big deal for him for all parts of her body belong to him but she was yet to grasp that fact and what he had done would be invading her privacy without permission, whatever in hells that meant. But he knew he had to do this... there was no other choice, a spell can’t stop this only his aura can.
He covered her up the moment he laid her bare and proceeded to take off his waistcoat and his long sleeve shirt and then until he was in his birthday suit just as he left her.
He climbed into the bed with her and slipped into the covers and held her tightly against his large frame, it felt like he was holding a doll but he just tried to be gentle in his grip so that he doesn’t snap her, he knew when it comes to physique he was quite bigger than a normal male, one of the traits of being a god.
