Chapter 35: Continuous Thing

Selene opened her eyes to notice that instead of the soft pillow, she was enjoying the feel of Carter's skin against her cheek, her head on his chest, and his hand swung over her upper back and shoulder. The man's breath was still even and quiet, clearly indicating that he was yet to greet the morning.

Not that Selene wanted to move anywhere. They hardly thought about closing the blinds, yet it was definitely the best mistake — now the bartender could enjoy Carter's face in the deep morning light. She was so used to seeing him in artificial light, so what a surprise it was for her to finally see some color on his face.

He no longer looked as pale as a ghost, with several marks adoring his neck and even a faint blush, probably connected with Selene's body heat.
