Artemis

Fur brushes my face, making me flinch. The quick movement brings a groan to my mouth, feeling my wound strain. My eyes flutter open and I am staring into pure blackness. My eyes travel up, up, and up until I see the milky white skull of the monster. His eyes are closed—I think—because the red lasers are gone. His body is leaning against the bed frame, which looks like he can spread across the bed, and his body would engulf it.

I sit up lightly, careful not to wake him. He let me sleep on him… and he let me grab at his fur while he fixed my leg. He went out of his way to get me medicine and cook me food. He saved me… again.

No one has ever done that before.

The countless beatings that went on in the community, not a single person would come to my aid. Even when Warren beat me until I almost died at the age of seven. From then, he never hit another person again, probably scarred and scared from that experience.

I was more scared.

My fingers run into the fur of his bare chest, and I feel his body below it. His skin is warm and the further my fingers go up, the more I feel the indents of each one of his muscles. Were these abs? My thighs tighten together as I touch his hard wide chest and-

A hand grabs my wrist, making me jolt.

Looking up, I see the pin red eyes, staring down at me. “Can I help you, little mouse?”

“I—I… I just was…” What was I doing?

He leans forward and his chest fur basically swallows me. “Go ahead. Say it.”

I swallow the lump in my throat. “Huh?” The monster wants me to tell him… what? That there’s heat between my legs especially when I feel his warmth. The same heat I get when I listen to Warren’s growls as he shoves his manhood into Willow. I can’t tell him that. I can’t admit that because then it’d make it real.

“Say thank you, little mouse.”

I blink, straightening. Oh… That does make sense to do. “Thank you, little mouse.” A smirk runs across my lips as he rolls his eyes.

“No. You’re the little mouse. Just say a simple thank you.”

A giggle escapes my throat. “A simp-simple thank you.”

He sighs. “Little mouse.”

“Sunshine…” I try to mock his serious tone.

He growls heavily, chest rattling against mine. My nipples harden as my breath catches in my throat. Heat pools between my legs again. With widen eyes, I look up. I doubt he knows what he just did to me.

But his eyes look down at me, seemingly knowing. There’s no way that Sunshine knows that his growl turned me on.

My eyes move from his body as my face grows ten times hotter. “Uh… I have to use the bathroom.”

His head nods as he slowly untangles his body from mine. Before I can even think, I’m in his arms. I cling to his chest, hissing in pain, and it makes him cease his movement. “I will get you more medicine after you go to the bathroom, okay?”

I nod.

He carries me carefully and sets me on the toilet before leaving the room and closing the door.

I luckily haven’t been wearing any pants so all I must do is lift the shirt that is ten times bigger than me. I haven’t been wearing any bra or underwear… The monster could have touched me at any point.

I finish up and call Sunshine in. He helps me take meds before starting the water in the bath again and setting me inside of it.

“Take your time. I’m going to start breakfast. Just say my name and I’ll hear it and came back up to help you,” he says, leaving again.

“Just Sunshine?”

He hums approval before closing the door.

Maybe one day when he’s more comfortable I’ll get his real name. One day… But how long do I plan on being here?
