My Eve: Chapter 17

I told master that I wanted a mate. I told him that "[he] must create a female for me"(Shelley 106). I spent some time explaining it to him and at first he refused. He was afraid that with two creatures as me, human race would be under great devastation. I took some time to assure him that if he granted my wishes, then I would flee with her to some uninhabited place and leave the human race alone. After a few moments he agreed. He said, after some treats on my behalf, that he would begin to build me a woman. I was very happy when he changed his mind. Even though I live an unhappy existence it glorified my heart that I would soon have someone to call my own. She will love me in a way that mankind would never, and together we will live happily ever after.
