LADESSA.

I wiped the drool from the corner of my lips and scooted my body closer to the warmth I was hugging. I was already being pulled back to sleep when I realized I was leaning on a hard torso. I didn't mind it at first, as I was so used to this position until it dawned on me that I

didn't have the privilege to do this anymore.

My eyes snapped open, and I tilted my head up only to meet Kael's gaze. He was already looking at me.

Did he see me wipe my drool? Or worse, did my saliva drip onto his chest?

"Hi..." I mumbled, but my hand quickly covered my mouth. I didn't want him to smell my morning breath, but he was not even bothered at all by the looks of it.

He smiled broadly at me before he winked, making my forehead crease.

What was the wink for?

Kael didn't move and remained looking at me, the wide smile still plastered on his face.

Until it slowly sank into me why he was smiling too much.

Half of my body was almost on top of him. My arms were wrapped around him, and one leg was coiled around his hips, resting on top of his crotch, which I was certain was hard. He had a hard-on.

But then, it was natural for men to have a morning wood when they woke up, so I was the one who made this position awkward.

I smiled sheepishly at him, scrunching my nose as I removed my legs and arms away from him. "I'm sorry... I got too comfortable."

"No, harm done. You're not that heavy. I can still breathe." He said before placing both arms under his head while I lay completely on my back and stared at the ceiling.
