"Narx..." Neveah murmured, her eyes came open to find Menarx staring down at her, a goofy smile on his lips.
A smile Neveah returned with a small, sleepy smile of her own, her eyes still heavy with sleep.
Neveah was not certain she had slept as soundly as she had the night before, perhaps it was finally opening up to Menarx and sharing a piece of her dark past, but Neveah felt so much lighter.
She had slept with no nightmares or no worries at all, only the warmth of Menarx's arms around her and now she had ended up sleeping far into the morning.
"There she is...rise and shine, my love." Menarx said, he leaned down and placed a light kiss on Neveah's forehead before he stepped back and carried on with what he had been doing.
"Oh gods... how late is it exactly? Did we have plans today? Or I was meant to report to the academy?" Neveah groaned as she made to sit up on the bed but Menarx quickly dissuaded her.
