“You awake?”

My eyes fluttered open at her whispered words. “Yeah.” Then I cringed, figuring she was awake because she was sleeping on my sofa, which couldn’t be comfortable. I looked over at the clock and saw it was just after midnight, and I knew she needed sleep. “It’s okay, Eve, you can go back to your room if you want. You must be uncomfortable on the sofa.”

I heard rustling sheets, and turned my head to look at her.

My room was a pretty simple configuration. There was a double bed on the back wall that looked out onto the ocean, and to the right of that window, there was a TV and the sofa facing it. The positioning meant I could see Eve, and that was why I’d kept my head turned aside. Watching her was too addictive, and I didn’t want to creep her out.

Somehow, I was her mate too. The mark on her palm was proof of that.

I bit the inside of my cheek to stop my excitement from surging to the front.

Now was definitely not the time to be thinking such things. Definitely not.

No.

More rustling sheets, then the sudden waft of her fragrance that had my gouille stirring. Ever since she’d claimed him, the gouille had been stronger than ever.

I had to wonder if she was drawing my creature out of me as she had with Dre. Although, with Dre, she’d done that before she’d received the mark.

We had no theories as to what the fuck was going down, but we knew Eve was beyond special, and that something tied us all together. Something which was priceless and in need of protection yet would be frowned upon by the faculty.

I tilted my head to the side, aware she was standing there in a pair of sleep shorts and a shirt. She wasn’t dressed provocatively in any way, but she was my Chosen. She didn’t have to do anything provocative to entice me. She did that by fucking breathing.

Licking my lips, I asked, “Eve? Are you going to your room?”

She’d been sleeping here since I’d left the sickbay, and though it was both torturous and delightful, I was kind of sad at the prospect of her leaving.

“No. C-Can I get in with you?”

My cock hardened the instant she let the words out, but my head told me to be cautious. “Are you okay?” I rasped, even as I moved to the side so she could climb in next to me—sure, she could have rounded the bed and climbed in there, but she hadn’t done that. She’d moved toward me, and the prospect of her lying on sheets that were warm from my body made everything inside me clench and release in an endless surge of emotion that was as ceaseless as the tide itself.

“No, I’m not,” she whispered as she clambered into bed beside me.

My body still ached, but I didn’t need help moving now so that was something. Shifting across the bed hadn’t hurt too badly, either, and the very lack of pain was not helping me focus when Eve was here, in bed with me.
