Edwin was getting ready in his chamber for the blood bond ceremony of Thea and Rees. And no matter what, he could not take out the image of Ruth walking down the aisle in her blue dress.
He remembered how his heart skipped a beat as soon as his eyes caught her image. He remembered what emotions surged through him as she walked slowly and shyly.
The natural pink blush that tinted her cheeks was so adorable that he regretted not walking to her and pinching her cheeks till she got annoyed.
He took out the brown piece of cloth from the box. Since Ruth had started working in 'the great manor', he had kept it safely in his chamber. Because now, he need it only when she was not around. The other times, whenever he missed her, he would just meltdown in the shadows and follow her everywhere she went.
