Damon could only smile in response. "Don't worry, and don't look at me like that. Just give me a few days, and I will take care of this."
In a force of habit, he raised his hand and patted her head. He realized what he had done and was about to take his hand back when he saw the shy smile on the elf's face. Clearly, she enjoyed it.
"Thank you for trying to heal me and thank you for that… cough…" Damon ruffled his hair awkwardly and added. "Kiss."
Lirae's cheeks started turning pink. Damon did not know what to do. She was standing so close to him, and her reactions, coupled with the smell of her sweet blood, were making him slightly lose control.
However, he immediately clenched his fists and controlled himself, stopping with a small kiss on her cheeks. "Thank you." He said again. "I will handle this soul injury on my own. I do need your help for something else if you don't mind."
Hmmm? Lirae looked up at him with a puzzled expression.
