-Sapphire-


I was engulfed in warmth when I woke up.

Stretching, I felt arms tightening around me, and I had all the events of last night. Acheron made my demon happy, satisfied our beasts, and completed the bond. The safety I felt in his arms wouldn't have been natural for a Human...

But I was no Human. I was a Dragon and a Demon... And I was proud to be one.

"Morning." Acheron murmured, making me look up at him. He looked extraordinarily hot with his Just-Woken face. I let my lips perk up at the corners of my mouth.

"Good morning." He pressed a soft kiss to my forehead. I hummed, the tingles making my mood instantly brighten.

"Saffron made breakfast for us, by the way." I sniffed the air. Aside from his suffocating scent, I smelled-

"Stuffed French toast!" I leapt out of bed, only to remember. "Shit!" I covered myself up with the comforter once again, hiding my embarrassment. Acheron chortled, then grabbed his sweats off the floor, pulling them on.

"Careful, mate... Or I'll be having you for breakfast." He winked, then went into the bathroom, starting the shower. I cooled my cheeks off before going to the dresser, and searching for one of his plain T-shirts. I found what I was looking for, thankful it hung off me like a dress. I turned back to see the bed made and a new pair of clothes on the comforter. It was probably Saffron at work.

If you need anything, just whisper my name three times. -Irsia

His second Djinn... She picked out a blue sweater, a striped tank top, and some dark blue denim jeans.

I waited until Acheron came out, freshly dressed, before I ran into the bathroom. He stopped me halfway as I was through the door.

"I must say, I like you in my clothes..." I chewed on my lip, peering up from my messy hair. "Go, shower... Takes my mind off of what I'd like on the table."

"Acheron!" I smacked his arm making him get out of the doorway. "Mind out of the gutter!" I shut the door, hearing him laugh. I looked around, seeing the luxury breathing around me.

I went to the huge shower, looking up at the rainfall shower head

I went to the huge shower, looking up at the rainfall shower head. I looked at the wall, finding my favorite peachy body wash and some very expensive purple shampoo, something that Blondes used as a neutralizer, and made their hair vibrant. Next to that was some Eos shaving lotion and a Venus razor. If I've learned anything so far... Dragons are rich.

I set my clothes down on the counter, finding clean towels in the cabinet below. I threw that over the glass door, stepping into the shower. I turned on the water about two-thirds of the way on hot, and it was tepid. Usually, that was too hot for me. Then, I remembered, I was a dragon. I probably had some heat resistance. All the way to the right was actually perfect and I indulged in the endless hot water.
