Awakening with a groan, I rolled over in our large bed, only to frown and jolt up as I felt...
Nothing beside me.
Opening my eyes, I gazed around the room and scanned every inch of it, looking for Jahi.
Not seeing any lights in the bathroom, nor any in the kitchen, I frowned more as I got up, letting out another groan as pain flared in my muscles.
My eyes fell on the whip that lay on the bed, the long, black leather strips all too familiar to me at this point.
Smiling slightly as I recalled the feeling of it on my skin, I shivered before raising a hand, my palm shimmering blue.
A deep blue light cascaded over my battered and bruised body, healing any visible wounds and mending all the internal damage from last night, making me moan in pleasure.
Once my body was back in tip top shape, I sat back down and closed my eyes, focusing the entirety of my being on the bond that connected Jahi and I.
