Thirty minutes later, I still sat there, watching her.

The Were-cheetah had left with the blonde.

Lanore finished spreading vanilla oil onto her skin and put on a lilac gown. I’d actually closed my eyes most of the time, already feeling like a pervert for watching her through the window and invading her privacy. The least I could do was not ogle her while she walked around naked.

I pulled out my phone and dialed her phone number.

She raced out of the bedroom to a phone that was on the wall. Her eyes scanned the screen as she sighed and picked up the phone. “I’m sorry for running out like that, Zulu.”

“I want to talk about you and me later.”

She paused for a minute, and I could see her biting the nail on her index finger. “Okay, but no more kissing.”

I growled over the phone.

“You keep growling like that, and I’ll hang up,” she said.

“I’ll give you some time to yourself, a few weeks, and then I’m coming for you,” I said in a deep voice.

“Coming for me?” She covered her face and giggled. “You know you’re absolutely insane.”

“You have no idea,” I muttered as I gazed at her through the window.

“I’m not promising you that we’ll start dating,” she said. “But I will explain why I’m hesitant.”

“That’s fair.”

“Good night,” she said in a sweet voice that made me want to climb into her apartment and taste her tongue.

“Good night,” I reluctantly said as she hung up.

She strolled away from the kitchen, entered her room, and turned off the light. The fifty candles all over the room lit together in one instant.

How is she doing that?

She got under her fuzzy purple blanket, blew a kiss to the Captain Habitat poster on the ceiling, and lay in her bed.

Minutes passed. I waited to hear the soft sound of her slumber.

But instead, she sat up. Her hand went to her nightstand’s top drawer, pulled something out, and took it under the blanket.

A humming sound filled the room.

It has to be a vibrator.

I bit my lip, wanting to come through the window and please her myself.

“Zulu,” she moaned.

I froze, standing there for a few seconds more, watching her pleasure herself with my name on her tongue.

“Zulu.”

You’ll say more than that when I claim you.

I had to go now, or I’d do something that we would both regret. I flashed a grin and back-flipped off of her fire escape, falling into the air.

A cool wind rushed up my body.

My wings expanded with a snap, and then I rose high into the sky, above Lanore’s building, singing York’s song in my mind.

In this cage, behind these bars, I think of you and me.
