Chapter Twenty-One

Twelve hours previous

Jask had fallen asleep waiting for Sophia to do so first.

Now he’d woken to find her sleeping soundly, the glow of the descending afternoon sun warming them both. Her body was enticingly soft against his, the heat of their bodies having melded in the couple of hours they’d lay there.

He lifted his head from the pillow to look at her face, but it was too masked by her hair to see her eyes – only her delicate nose and slightly parted curvaceous lips visible.

It had been a long time since he’d woken next to a female – since he’d allowed himself that luxury. He’d almost forgotten how it felt, let alone the stirring sense of intimacy it evoked, not least from sharing his bed.

Only mates shared beds. That was an understanding amongst their kind. It prevented complications and misconstruing one intent behind a sexual act from another.

But taking the serryn to his bed had been nothing about sex, though the thoughts had irritatingly slipped into his head too many times over the few hours before. And no more so than when he’d cornered her in the bathroom, provoking his resolve to get some much-needed sleep before acting in a way he’d regret.

She was too intense, too unrelenting, too provocative for him to deal with her when his irritation levels were that high. Besides, she’d looked on the edge of exhaustion herself – getting more and more irrational in her choices. Trying to provoke both him and Corbin outside the holding room had proven that. They’d both needed downtime.

And he’d needed to calm the frustration inside.

But gazing at her sleeping only reignited the thoughts again – how he could so easily lay her beneath him, find the core of her heat, sate himself for a short while at least.

And thoughts of her submitting, of her letting him take her amidst the comfort of her hazy sleep like familiar lovers, only aroused him further. He felt himself harden as he thought of tasting every inch of her smooth skin before sinking as deep into her as he could.

But what he wanted and what he needed were two entirely different things. What he needed was to head out to Rone and Samson – to see if time in the caskets had drummed sense into them.

Because this time, he wasn’t leaving without answers.

Carefully he pulled away.

Rather than stir her, he’d enjoy the refreshing outdoor showers after his training session, after their afternoon game out on the pitch.

He pulled on his sweatpants, vest top and jacket and sent one more glance at the feminine curves that lay beneath his duvet, before heading out of his room.

Corbin was already down in the foyer when Jask nodded his head out towards the quadrant, indicating for him to follow.

‘We’ll get them out now,’ Jask said as Corbin drew level.

‘Earlier than planned?’ Corbin remarked, keeping up with Jask’s strides as they crossed the green towards the tunnel.

‘Like you said, we don’t have time to waste.’
