NYQXEE’S POV
We spend the entire day tucked away in the suite, completely absorbed in one another. Whatever is happening outside doesn’t matter. In here, it feels like nothing else exists. The only sounds around us are our steady breathing, the quiet shift of the sheets when we move, and the soft hum of the heater. We don’t talk much, but the silence between us is never uncomfortable. It’s calming and reassuring, filled with an unspoken connection that says everything we need to hear.
Quen holds me with care, as if I’m something fragile and precious. His embrace is both strong and tender, and his scent a comforting blend of warm cedar and the subtle spice that comes with his Lycan nature grounds me. With my head resting on his chest, I listen to the slow, steady rhythm of his heartbeat.
