Chapter 71 

 

Aleera POV 

Pain radiated through my stomach, so I rolled only for me to be invaded by Lycus’s scent. A hand moves across my stomach, heat radiating out of it, and I sigh as the pain eases and glance over my shoulder to see Darius pressed against me. Darius kisses my shoulder while his thumb brushes my stomach gently where it lay. He tugs me closer, so I am flush against him, his entire body heating like my very own personal hot water bottle.

 

“It’s late; you should try to go back to sleep,” Darius murmurs. However, with him this close, I wasn’t sure I could sleep knowing he was lying beside me. It kind of put me on edge, but I was reluctant to move away at the same time.

“What happened to the hellhounds?” I asked, confused. I had no memory of returning here or of anything, in fact, since I passed out.

“Nothing, Tobias and Lycus got to us in time,” Darius says. The memory of teeth and claws trying to get to us made me cringe. Shivering, I jam my feet between Lycus’ legs in an attempt to warm them. Lycus hisses at how cold they were when I realized I had no pants on. I lift the blanket peering under it. To find I only had underwear on and one of their shirts on.

 

“I changed you; you bled through your pants,” Darius whispered behind me. My face heats at that thought before shaking it off. I had literally bled on his lap in the shower, and he didn’t seem fazed.
