Chapter 117: Down to Business

Azriel

 

Fuck, she looks so peaceful. Which is saying something after last night.

 

My little girl went a thousand percent feral on me, and I loved every goddamn second. I lost track of how many times she came. Shit, I came twice myself. 

 

You’d never know it seeing her in the gentle light of morning. Nestled up next to me, tiny and serene. It’s the first time in weeks I’ve seen her without her brow furrowed. My chest hurts to think of how much she’s carrying on those smooth, delicate shoulders. I lean down to kiss one of them, wondering if the gesture will let me share some of her load.

 

She shifts slightly in her sleep, and I catch a flash of something. A glimpse of her dream. There’s a forest? Maybe it’s just a willow tree? It’s dark, so it’s kind of hard to tell. And it’s only a moment. A whiff of running water, maybe?
