The room was dark. She knew she wasn’t in her own room because she was warmer than she’s ever been in a long time. She opened her eyes slowly, making sure not to move. She didn’t want to wake him up. She wasn’t ready to talk about what happened last night. She just wanted to stay there in his arms for a little while. She didn’t realize how much she missed being in his arms and how much she got used to being held by him. Sky closed her eyes. All of her fear melted away as she sank into him. He was so strong, holding her tight in his arms.
It felt so good.
My mate, she thought to herself.
She breathed in his scent. She loved it. She lay there for another hour or so, but she knew that everyone will be waking up soon. She needed to go.
She bit her bottom lip, not wanting to leave him.
