The early sunlight of the Midnight Dominion bathed the room in a soft, golden glow, casting long shadows over the bed where Pyris lay.
The night had been intense, filled with connection and passion, and as dawn filtered through the thick atmosphere of the city, Pyris found comfort in the warmth of the women surrounding him. Ammit, Alexa, and Aurelia lay peacefully, their bodies bathed in the morning light, their ranks strengthened after the events of the night before.
Carefully slipping out of bed so as not to wake them, Pyris refreshed himself and made his way to the living room.
There, seated cross-legged in the couch, was Elsa, her bright eyes glued to the technology news channel on the television.
The screen flashed with stories of new inventions, the latest advancements, and the pending launch of ARGO VRMMORPG—the very game his company was preparing to release.
