Elias pinned her hands to the bed and stared at her, "You are my wife." Implying that this was expected.His words were factual. Lucy stopped resisting, although she was still feeling anxious, and restlessly watched him.Elias suddenly softened, "I'll be gentle."Under his spell, Lucy nodded and surrendered herself to him.The next morning, Lucy woke up due to hunger.
