Loriel realized it must feel so awkward and embarrassing for Elise to say those words to him and asked for his help.
So, he acted as relaxed as possible and showed her that he didn't feel awkward at all. Also, it was very important that he didn't look like a pervert when he helped her get dressed.
Stop looking at her breasts, he told himself.
Loriel was a normal man after all, who had not been intimate with a woman in a long.... long time. So, even though he tried to do his best to act like nothing happened, his breath started panting.
Her skin was so smooth and tender. Her natural scent smelled sweet and made Loriel want to kiss the top of her hair to inhale it more. Gosh.. he wanted to kiss her all over and made love to her.
Loriel pinched himself for thinking about sex while Elise was feeling devastated like this. He looked away and tried to think about other things.
