SCRAMBLED EGGS

Zoe was sure he was dreaming. He was warm and cosy, the humidity was almost perfect, and he could smell plants, living plants. If he’d felt the warmth of the sun he’d have believed he was at home, but he wasn’t. He was in the cold north. Being in this sanctum was only temporary, as was the feeling of strong arms holding him close. He knew that once Wojtek woke up there’d be air between them again. It almost made him feel bad that he enjoyed the closeness, the body heat, the powerful arms shielding him from the evil of the outside world.

The respite was short-lived, though. Satul barged in through the door, and in the same moment, Wojtek flew up. He changed instantly as he positioned himself on all fours over Zoe, probably unaware of the protective stance he’d taken. His eyes never left Satul as he bared his teeth and growled. It took a few seconds before he woke up properly, long enough for Zoe to fear for Satul’s life. It took a few very long seconds before he changed back.

“What the fuck, Satul?” Wojtek’s voice was growly enough to make Zoe shiver, and not out of fear.

“I… erm… I just wanted… to make sure he was okay.” Satul stared at the floor in front of him, looking like a kicked puppy.

“And you couldn’t have done that by knocking on the door?”

“Erm…”

“You know the bet is off, right?”

“No, please, Alpha. I need to get away for a while. I just want some peace and quiet at the end of the day. I’ll still do everything I do now. Please.”

Zoe didn’t understand what they were talking about, but he felt the need to interrupt, which was pretty darned stupid. Why would he want to protect Satul? “Hey, what do you two say about some breakfast? I make a mean orange juice.”

Both Wojtek and Satul frowned. “I didn’t think lizards drank,” Satul added after a little while.

“Well, no. I still know how to make juice, though.”

The corners of Wojtek’s mouth twisted, but he didn’t let it turn into a smile. It didn’t matter, Zoe was happy he’d managed to break the tension.

“What are you waiting for? Make yourself useful.” Wojtek turned to look at him as he spoke, and there was a sparkle in his eyes Zoe hadn’t seen before. “I’d like some scrambled eggs too.”

“Ew, eggs. I came from one of those.” He added some hand-flapping to his wrinkled nose.

“You did?” Satul stared at him as if he’d just arrived in a spaceship. Fuck! Yet another thing he’d let slip.

“Yeah.”

“Oh, I didn’t know.”

“Yeah, you’re real science freaks around here.” He flicked back the cover, glad he’d slept in his clothes—Wojtek’s clothes—and went out of the bedroom. It really had been a good way to wake up, even if Satul had ruined everything.
