With surprised emotion across his face, Nicklaus slowly took the glass of water away from her lips when she backed off the glass.
What have I done? He thought, his eyes darted between the glass of water he was holding and the woman before him.
He wasn't able to accept he just fed a lady with no feeling of loathing running through his veins. His heartbeat fastened. It was so loud that he doubt it if Arissa haven't heard it.
The sweet smile that was on Arissa's face dropped and she forgot how to breathe seeing him so pale. "Nick," she immediately called him. His frozen expression scared her and the fact he kept on staring between her and the glass of water confused her.
Has he perhaps given her a liquid that wasn't water? But that was water I had just drank, she thought.
Her hand stretched to take the glass from him but Nicklaus beat her to it first. He dropped the glass of water back on the table.
