His voice came out hoarse and broken. "Stand up," Ardenia spoke at last. Tobias shrank back and muttered, stubborn to the core, "No." There was no chance she was hauling him off for dissolution. Adorable. He's learned how to snap back. Alright. I should stop joking with him. Ardenia approached and lowered herself into a crouch. She flicked her fingers toward the flame in the corner, and the entire cave blazed with light. After reaching Level 2, she really was formidable. From Tobias' low vantage point, a slender, elegant calf moved before him, paired with white embroidered shoes.

Ardenia replied, "Of course.

Once you've laid eyes on a gem, everyone else just looks like plain stones." "You're lying!" "I swear I'm not lying. Honestly, you don't leave any hope for other males at all. Who exactly are you trying to lure with your pretty face?". She kept talking while her hands slid behind him, but she couldn't quite reach. So she bent lower and his firm backside a squeeze.

"Tobias, does it hurt?" Her tone was gentle. She leaned against his arm, green light pulsing from her palm. Tobias never admitted pain; he always acted like nothing mattered.
