Chapter Six

Auri woke to sunlight pooling in his eyes, making him groan and cover them with one hand. The moment he moved, he wished he had not, for his head began to pound with the most hideous rhythm.

He lay there limply, simply too worn and tired to think, but gradually the events of the previous evening came back to him and he began to remember uncomfortable reality.

As memory flowed over him, he began to tense, wondering how in the worlds he was supposed to gracefully remove himself from this situation. What had been needed the night before now became an embarrassment on his part. He could clearly smell sex in the room and on him, and he blushed vividly as hot images paraded through his mind, his shaft trying desperately to harden in response. He carefully rolled away from the sun, managing to sit up, clutching warm covers to his body in belated modesty.

To his relief, no one was in the room; Kanar’s side of the bed was cold. By the position of the sun, it was late morning and Auri groaned aloud with

mortification. Now everyone would know he had given up on his former attitude and fallen headlong into the Felin leader’s bed.

He rested his aching head in his hands. There was no one to blame but himself. Kanar would have let him leave last night. It had been Auri who had initiated things. Good things.

He thrust the thought away. Not good things! He glared down at the bed as though it was at fault. With growing anger, he thought of what Kanar had said about spending time with each of his mates. So now Auri was one of the four. A number. Was he just the current favorite until the next came along?

He felt ill at the very thought. He could not imagine being at peace with the thought of his lover bedding another. How in the worlds did they do it? Did they just not care enough for Kanar, or were their natures less possessive?

He only knew his own heart was not so generous.

When he finally exited the bedroom, once more dressed, it was to find a guard waiting for him, a note in hand. He gave it to Auri with a slight bow. Auri accepted it, but did not open it until the guard had safely returned him to his room.

There, once he was private, he took it to the window, seating himself in one of the massive armchairs there before opening it, reading the beautiful cursive script.

My Little Tiger…

It was so very hard to leave you this morning. You slept twined around me and it made me sleep deeply and well as I have not for a very long time. If duty had not called, I could have happily spent the day in your arms. Do not believe this gift you have given me is accepted lightly. I know what it will cost you when you wake and begin to think too much. Know only that I love you, for you.
