Chapter 17: Comfort in Your Arms

When my eyes opened, I found myself wrapped into a warm embrace. I tried to recall what had happened. I looked around and saw I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting back here all by myself. Who had put me in my bed? How long had I been sleeping for?

Hopefully it hadn’t been that long. That’s when it all came flooding back to me. I had been very lightheaded and weak before I had fainted. But that wasn’t everything that had occurred.

A realization hit me when I looked over. Dax laid beside me in my bed and was sleeping soundly.

What was he doing here? He could have left me without feeling the urge to stay. It made me a bit flustered that he was in the same bed as me and held me against him like this.

This was very cozy and kind of romantic for us. We weren’t a couple but his closeness affected my every nerve.
