When I wake up and open my eyes, I freeze in place. Somehow, I've rolled on the bed while sleeping, and now I'm clinging on Leo.
To be more precise, I tried to climb on him during slumber. My leg is latched around his. One of his arms is folded behind the head like it was when I fell asleep, but the other supports my head. He's looking at the ceiling, blinking from time to time.
He must have endless patience if he lets me sleep like this.
When he turns towards me, I use all my concentration to not wince. If I retreat now, he'll think that I'm embarrassed and start teasing me for that. And he's surprisingly warm after drinking blood.
«Good morning,» I whisper with the most natural tone I can summon.
He continues to stare at me, so I just move an inch further. This way, he can get up when he wants.
«Staying here will become complicated,» he starts. «I'll find you a room not too far from here.»
