I had apparently already been asleep for a while, but I had felt the need to go back to sleep for the rest of the night. I guess when you almost die your body needs its rest.

I don't know what time it was when I fell back to sleep with Dietrich, but I slept soundly all night, held tightly in my mate's arms. Dietrich was already awake when I woke up sometime after noon, but he hadn't left the bed. He said he didn't want to leave my side. Now isn't that just an awesome mate?

"How did you sleep?" He asked me after I had questioned why he was still holding me if he had been awake.

"Peacefully." I smiled at him, knowing it was because of him that I was alive and able to be sleeping and talking and doing anything ever again.

"Then I am glad I kept holding you close. I would have hated to have ruined your sleep."

"You spoil me, you know that?" I grinned at him.

"I try to, but you keep trying to stop me." He chuckled.
