Chapter 532 - 525. Jailbreak
The first thing Agni did when he opened his eyes in the morning was to check the other side of the bed.
It was still cold.
He chuckled into the sheet and lifted his sore body up, wincing at the leftover wound in his body. The healer had patched him up well, but a lot of internal wounds could only be healed with time. Taking a deep breath to quell the dull throb on his side, he snatched a shirt from the chair beside the bed, smiling as he brushed against the slightly warm backrest.
It was a challenging walk to the command office, but thankfully, the Captain’s quarters were only a floor below it. He was awarded for his effort with the view of his sulking boyfriend making a morning coffee--even though there was a perfectly functioning coffee maker in Agni’s room.
Holding back his chuckle, Agni leaned into the scout and kissed the man’s neck. "Are you still punishing me?"
"Yes."
The answer was curt, but it put a smile on Agni’s face anyway. At least, this time, Ron answered properly instead of ignoring him like the past two days. He touched the scout’s waist, and when Ron did not scoot away, he circled his arm there.
"If you want to punish me, you should sleep in my bed and elbowed me ’accidentally’ in your sleep--that’ll be pretty hurt, I think."
"I’ll consider it."
"Wouldn’t it be better than watching me sleep in that chai--ugh!" Agni grimaced and clutched his stomach, laughing when he saw the nonchalant expression on the perpetrator’s face. "Are we even now?"
Ron gripped his cup, fighting the urge to pour the content on the berserker’s head--not that it would do anything to a heat-resistant person like Agni. He sipped the coffee silently as he digested the crumbs of his anger.
