A Graduation Gift

Of course she knew Rufus would still have a bit of self control. However he was already halfway induced.

This drug was particularly strong. It could make people dizzy and hallucinate. Rufus wouldn't be able to resist it much longer. Rufus's vision was slowly blurring. He was growing dizzier and dizzier, as he tried to snap out his thoughts.

Why was he suddenly so dizzy? Was it because of the heat? No. It must have been something he drank.

He stilled his thoughts until he finally came to the conclusion that there must've been something in his wine.

Amanda laughed darkly, her lips shining against the dim light as she leaned in to unbotton his shirt.

"Rufus, I've only had eyes for you. But you never, ever reciprocate my love. But with the marvellous drug you just ingested, I can now have you all to myself. You won't even complain!"

Amanda said, voice growing darker as she let her hunger and desire take over her.

"I love you, Rufus. I love you so much,"

Whenever Cassandra said those words, it was always so careful and gentle.
