Calm Before The Storm

"Eris!" I jerk awake, startling Kian who was still sleeping next to me. He tightens his arms around me and pulls me close before asking "What's wrong? Did you have a bad dream?" I find comfort in his arms as I try to blink away my sleep infused confusion.

I could have sworn I heard someone calling me... Kian trails his fingers down my bare back, making my skin tingle and warm at his touch. I relax against his bare chest as I say "As much as I'd like to stay in bed with you all day, I need to start working on a way to find my father and brother."

Kian groans a little before placing a kiss on my bare shoulder and saying "Let's work together to find them and put a stop to the hooded demon. Now that Enzo is dead, we have one less thing to worry about."

I crawl out of his arms and sit up. I slip on my shirt with a frown and say "I'm not completely sure Enzo's dead... The Dragon did attack him and if it was anyone else, they'd be dead but this is Enzo we're talking about."
