He laughed.“I don’t need much sleep.You were wounded and can use all the rest you can get.Tomorrow, can you show me your shop?”
“Sure.Don’t let me climb out of bed, please.”
“I will keep you with me.I promise.You are going to be safe from here on out.”
Vaia sighed, pressed her forehead to his chest, and returned to sleep.

Hura jolted awake andfound red eyes far too close.She shoved at him.“Don’t be creepy.”
Kremoryn laughed.“Sorry, it’s in my DNA.”
He pinned her down with her hands above her head and kissed her.His weight came down on her, and it felt...So.Damned.Good.
She whined and arched up toward him as the kiss deepened, and he sent his energy into her mouth.She felt the tendrils moving around her thighs and under her sleep shirt.
Shadows moved between her thighs and entered her, causing her to gasp as they stroked and tickled their way into her.Kremoryn moved fast for a guy who had all the time in the world.
She moaned, and her hands formed claws, but he had her hands bound away from him as her hips twisted and undulated against him.He had a weird purr that started as she bucked and rocked under him.Clenching on the shadows was deeply unsatisfying, but as she sought more, the shadows got thicker.Soft touches on her clit lit a fire in her, and she let out quiet, panicked cries as her orgasm hit her.She gasped as her body was caught up in release and went on and on until he finally let her relax.The weird rattling purr turned into a chuckle.“Morning, Hura.”
She croaked.“Kremoryn.That is an interesting way to greet the day.”
He grinned and kissed her, keeping the kiss to his tongue instead of filling her with shadows.His shadowed tentacle was still moving slowly inside her, thick and persistent.She bent her right leg and rubbed it along his hip.
He smiled.“No objections?”
“Did you leave me hanging?”
“No.”
“Good.The day you do, I use my shadows on you and dangle you over a volcano.”
He chuckled.“Understood.So, you have no objection to a union with me?”
“I knew you the moment I saw you.Why would I object?”
Kremoryn sighed.“I don’t think I have ever had a woman who didn’t have some kind of regret in my bed.”
She held his face with her shadows.“Then, give me no reason for regret.”
He grinned and kissed her again, pausing to say, “Will you lose the sleep shirt?”
She chuckled.“Earn it.”
His eyes glowed, and he released her hands.“Challenge accepted.”
He kissed her neck, and she ran her hands over his shoulders, dragging her nails up his back.He shuddered under her touch and stroked at the edge of her sleep shirt.She smiled and allowed her sleep shirt simply to fade away.Kremoryn froze and then moved over her, lifting her from the bed with his clawed hands as he slowly turned her over.He shuddered again as he ran his hands over her shoulders, back, the narrow taper of her waist, and the wide flare of her hips.
“Beautiful.”He kissed the back of her neck, and she felt the sharp nip of his teeth.
“Hey.”
He chuckled, and she felt something in her ass as well as the thick tendril in her vagina.
She grunted and leaned forward.This was apparently what he had been hoping for.The tentacle in her sex pulled out, and Kremoryn surged in.
He wrapped his arms around her midsection and leaned against her.“You feel perfect.”
