The sun raised on the horizon as the alpha slowly opened his eyes. He was in his cabin, on his bed but it felt different today. Feeling the weight of something on his chest, he looked down to find the sleepy face of the professor lying peacefully on his vast expanse, her left leg draped over him.
Last night, it took a lot of restraint from his side but he had refrained himself from touching the girl and there she was leaching to his side like a baby koala hugging his mother. She was the same girl who did not share the blanket with him. Now, wrapped in the white cover like a burrito, she was sticking to him.
A satisfying yet weird type of feeling settled in his stomach seeing the girl in his arms as his hand lifted to touch the morning skin but before that happened, he pulled it back, putting the girl's face on the pillow so carefully that it would not have her awake. Getting on his feet, he walked over to the bathroom and splashed cold water on his face.
