Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

“We are in a relationship. So, sleeping in the same room shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

Elspeth saw a hint of slyness in Callum’s gaze.

Callum still had the same appearance, but the coldness and dignity in his soul had vanished. The Callum before her was a big ferocious wolf dressed in sheep’s clothing.

“Can we sleep separately, Callum? I’m not quite ready yet.”

Not so much prepared as not prepared at all.

Callum’s eyelids did not flutter. A smile gradually crept to his lips as he noticed a flash of dread on Elspeth’s face.

“It’s fine. Everyone has their first time.”

How dirty-minded!

Elspeth shivered as she cuddled up on the bed.

Kneeling beside her, Callum put his hand beside her to take away the quilt.

The next thing Elspeth knew, Callum, who was usually dignified, was lying on the sofa in a suit, leaving the bed for her alone.

“Let’s sleep.”

Elspeth was unable to react in time. She expected Callum to impose himself on her.

“Callum, you’re the epitome of a gentleman.”

Elspeth’s eyes were welling up with tears. The impression he left on her became even more positive.

He calmly closed his eyes and said, “I’m not. I’ll come back to bed immediately if you say anything else.”

“Don’t! I’ll sleep now.”

Elspeth was terrified and hastily closed her eyes.

Elspeth couldn’t sleep after some time. And the consistent breathing sound by her side surprised her.
