When Alice makes a strange request, Jasper's not really sure how to handle it other than by vehemently denying her it. And he's not used to denying his wife anything. He'd give her whatever she wanted within reason, whatever made her happy.
Hurting her would not make her happy. Hurting her surpasses reason and borders and skirts around the absurd.
At least, that is what he tries to remember as he replays the conversation in his head, his unfinished Trig homework forgotten in front of him.
Maybe he is being unreasonable. Maybe he is being the bad guy, not letting her do what she wants to her body. He just -
He sighs, and rips a handful of pages from his textbook. He's not sure why he does (though it is better than the dark option of sucking someone dry of their blood and the problem he'd been working on was annoying anyway), but it makes him feel better. If all too briefly.
