Alric woke up to the sweet smell of perfume and love. Next to him lay his escort for the night, a human with short blond hair and a large tiger tattoo on her back. She had gorgeous thick lips and long lashes. He gently traced the curves of her body with her finger.
"Mhm..." She was so deeply asleep that she barely noticed his touch. Alric lay there watching her breathe for a while before eventually getting up. Even though he kept forgetting her name, she was his favorite, and he often specifically requested her whenever he was on The Surface.
Going into the bathroom, Alric slipped the dreaded bracelet off his wrist. His wings reappeared, taking up half of the space. Cursing, he folded them back in tightly to ease maneuvering around. This hotel bathroom didn't seem too Winged-friendly. He crammed himself into the shower to wash the night off with hot water. Moments like these were perfect for reflecting on things.
