THE ALPHA WAS BEING OVERLY PROTECTIVE

Zuri curled herself against Khaos's chest with one of her legs tangled with his under the blanket and the other poked out. Her long, black hair spread on the pillow and her lips were slightly ajar, as she snored softly.

After their meeting, Zuri was too exhausted to stay awake and fall asleep almost immediately. She made an excellent plan to get the golden stamp and right now, she deserved all the rest she needed.

Khaos put his hand on her hips and could feel a little bit of meat there. She was still skinny, he was still able to feel her protruding bones, but at the very least, she put on a little bit weight, instead of losing it.

[Khaos, I need you to come out for a while,] Bryden mindlinked him and the alpha carefully entangled himself from her.

But, Zuri was startled, she was awake and looked at him sleepily.
