Andreas kept his teeth clenched, hissing when Asalia applied the patch with the medicine on it. There were several kinds of pain he enjoyed; having large chunks of his flesh bitten away wasn’t one of them. He tried to focus on the maid’s words to distract himself. Surprisingly, he didn’t hate it when she stitched up the wounds that were narrow enough to do so. Apparently, having a needle pushed through his skin and his flesh pulled and sewn tightly together was one of the pains he sort of enjoyed.<br/><br/>“I hope this isn’t going to scar,” he joked, trying to keep his mind off the pain. Some kind of unnaturally tidy albino or not, Andreas preferred his human guise to his Demon form. It was more attractive… And less terrifying. Asalia had seen his true form maybe a handful of times. It got difficult to maintain human form after a while, so he’d usually just let loose on full moons. Any strange things the humans saw wandering around on a full moon was… easily explained.<br/><br/>If he could help it, Andreas wanted to keep Koda from ever seeing what he really looked like. As far as the pup was concerned, the Demon’s human form would be his only form.
