As Santiago was having a tour of the mansion by his Red, Persephone's phone rang. She excused for a moment before going away to take the call.
Only when he noticed that no one was in sight, did he let himself lean against the wall and study her once again. Her previous straight dark hair was curly and red now. Her face had an otherworldly shine. The freckles trailing on the bridge of her nose were as beautiful as before.
The green of her body-hugging dress was popping the green of her eyes. Those green eyes which had been haunting his dreams for the last two months. The green eyes which didn't let him sleep.
He noticed that her body changed in these months. Her breast seemed more fuller and her hips rounder. But she still was as thin as before, if not more. He wondered if all of his food went to her boobs and ass only.
"I don't think your fiance would like you talking to another man," Santiago said when she returned.
