She blushed, ducking her head at his question about her health. “I...was nursing a friend and ended up forgetting about my own health,” she said softly. She moved with him after pausing long enough to grab her cane, collapsing it since she could lean against him rather then the cane, which kept up their pace.
:”Thank you, for helping me, Christian,” she said, looking at him, before her eyes darted away. She couldn't afford to deal with her attraction to him. She couldn't accept it, not with Erik around, not with her heart his.
No matter how wonderful it would be to five in and persue something with this sweet, tender man. Though...she wasn't going to say no to something more...physical. Everyone needed a release, and she was getting more and more frustrated as she held herself away from everyone, waiting for Erik.
