Kai hadn't meant to lose himself like a beast, but the moment she begged for more, all restraint shattered. After four intense rounds of making her unravel beneath him, her body finally gave in to exhaustion, and sleep claimed her swiftly. His own monster finally soothed.
With tender care, he cleaned her gently, wiping away every trace of their intensely passionate lovemaking to ensure she would rest undisturbed. Then, wrapping his arms around her from behind, he kissed the crown of her head, breathing in the delicate scent of her hair, and offering her his warmth to enjoy.
When she turned in her sleep, resting on her hand, he simply watched her exquisite face, silent, still, guarding her until dawn.
