Secret Keeper

Phoebe sighed when Remi assured her she hadn’t sounded like she had come around asking him to take her to bed. She wasn’t bold enough to do that with a man who would want to take a woman to bed, let alone a man who didn’t appreciate her lady parts. He would have no trouble pulling her hands away from her face, the blush on her cheeks obvious against her pale skin. But she was frowning, brows furrowed in concern. If her eyes had been glassy she might have been mistaken for being on the verge of tears. ”I’m sorry.” she said as a knee-jerk reaction, just a throw away phrase to fill the silence. She stayed still as he watched her, examining her face. Wide brown eyes, voluminous blonde hair, delicate feminine features – she was a pretty thing that had a tendency to look younger than she was. But his statement…well the face she made in response would do nothing to make her look more mature. Her brows knitted together and her cheeks puffed a little with air. ”If that were so then how come no one has ever shown interest in me before, huh?” she said a bit indignantly. Frey had also said there was nothing wrong with her, that there was every reason for a man to want her. But where were these men who wanted to be with her? Not at her doorstep certainly! But he asked the more serious question and she was brought back to reality, not one to stay in a huffy mood for long anyways. ”I am. I said I would and I don’t know what would happen if I don’t…At least they didn’t give me a specific timeframe in which to…you know…” Her whole face turned red again. Ugh! She couldn’t even really talk about it without getting bashful! ”Though I don’t think I should wait for too long.” Frey didn’t seem one with a lot of patience. That wasn’t her only worry though. ”I can’t just…find the first man that will do it with me though just for the sake of it… I think that would actually make the god or goddess mad. That isn’t…well they made it clear that both parties have to want it…but I don’t think I would unless I felt a little something for them…” She had never had an emotional connection to a man, and she had never felt particularly aroused…ever either. The two had to be linked for her in some way. Remi Phoebe In a gentle way, you can shake the world
