The soft morning rays filtered through the hotel room's curtains, painting golden lines across the walls. The warmth of the sunlight hit my skin, but it was nothing compared to the warmth I felt beside me. Afa was curled into me, her naked body perfectly molded against mine, her breathing deep and even. She looked so peaceful, her dark lashes casting shadows against her smooth cheeks. Her lips, slightly parted, invited my attention, even as she lay unaware of my gaze.
I reached over, brushing a stray strand of her hair from her face before leaning down to press a gentle kiss against her forehead. My fingers trailed lightly over her shoulder and down her arm, teasingly brushing the curve of her ass.
"Mmm," she murmured, her lips twitching into a faint smile. "Aus..tin..." My name escaped her lips in a soft, dreamy whisper, and I couldn't help the grin that spread across mine.
"Oh, so you're awake now?" I teased, my voice low and playful.
