He cut the epidermis neatly, exposing the heart of the frog. After that, he pointed at other internal o**n*s and explained everything to me.

We finished much before the rest of the class and as soon as we submitted my work, Kael requested the teacher if we could leave, taking me by surprise.

tearing my gaze from him. Chiseled from marble, his muscles rippled under the sun like streams of molten bronze. His movements, and each stride, were filled with power and grace.
