Ellis had his gaze linger on Silas's exquisite figure, as she quietly climbed onto his bed… a bed far too large for someone as small as him.
Then, as she laid down in silence.
Ellis, only then, snapped out of his trance.
He walked slowly to her side, and couldn't stop himself from stealing another glance, and admire her beauty.
Then, he climbed onto the bed and sat beside her.
He closed his eyes for a brief moment, calming himself, and sweeping away any lingering, distracting thoughts that tried to rise.
Then, taking a deep breath, he slowly reached out his small hand…
And gently placed it on her bare stomach.
His palm met her warm skin, soft, smooth, and trembling faintly beneath his touch.
The sensation lingered, tempting him to pause longer than necessary.
But Ellis knew. Now wasn't the time to dwell on such things.
So, he focused his mind, and activated his Mana Sense skill.
