Chapter 555: Dawn Light
The dawn light peeked through the curtains but did little to brighten the bedroom. The Gale manor’s windows had been enchanted to filter sunlight to a minimum. A vampire’s skin burned easily. Without the proper gear, a mere half hour in direct sunlight could leave their skin a blistering red.
Sunlight always bothered Stryg’s eyes, but he had never experienced a sunburn. He glanced curiously at the beam of light shining through the curtains as lay in bed. He stretched out his hand and tried to grasp it, to no avail.
“What are you doing?” asked Feli through panted breaths. She was sprawled on top of him, her beautiful olive skin bare and slick with sweat.
He looked her over, tracing his other hand down her back and finding her soft bottom cheeks. “Just enjoying the moment.”
Feli smirked and kissed his chest before rolling off him. She exhaled deeply in satisfaction, “I waited too long for that.”
“You and me both.”
She cocked her eyebrow. “Are you telling me you didn’t find a goblin wench to bury your desires in the last few months? Or perhaps a drow barmaid from Undergrowth?”
“Um… no.”
“Stryg, you’re a terrible liar.”
