“Do you need more blankets,sha’len?” he asks, and I moan as his deep voice ripples through me.

“Yes. All of them. Do you have more?”

“Of course.” One by one, Zabriel drapes more blankets over me and tucks them in around me.

Bliss. Pure bliss.

When he’s finished, Zabriel sinks his teeth into his lower lip and makes an appreciative noise in the back of his throat. When he realizes I’m watching him, he smiles. His tongue plays with the sharp tooth at the corner of his mouth, and his voice is heavy with lust as he murmurs, “Beautiful, my sweet Omega.”

My core blazes in response to his praise and calling me Omega. I rub my cheek against the blankets and then pull some of them between my legs so I can clench my thighs around them. “Why are you smiling?”

Zabriel is adrift in his thoughts, and it takes him a moment to answer me. “Hm? Oh, nothing. I’m pleased you’re comfortable. Can I…” He hesitates and then shakes his head. With a smile bordering on suggestive, he closes the curtains around me. Another log falls into the fire, and then the door closes behind him.

I’ll get up and continue my work for the Temple Mothers.

Soon.

A moment later, I fall back into a doze.

Some unknown amount of time later, I awake to a deep voice murmuring in the dark, “Do you want more blankets,sha’len.”

“Please,” I moan, dragging myself up to sit. More blankets. More weight. More heat. More cozy darkness.

When I gaze around with blurry eyes, I see that my bed is already piled high with a ridiculous number of blankets. I stroke them like they’re sleeping cats, pleased with each and every one of them. But I still want more.

Why, though?

I watch Zabriel as he spreads a burgundy wool blanket across my feet. My mind feels sluggish and uncooperative, and all it can tell me is something about this is strange, but it refuses to come up with a reason why.

I tuck the blankets around me, forming them into pleasing shapes that I can cuddle my body around. Zabriel watches me fuss and fiddle with a hungry look in his eyes.

My hands stop moving. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“No reason, little Omega.” He rubs the back of his neck as he watches me and takes a ragged breath.

Alpha is pleased I’m cozy and warm.

The silly, breathy voice has commandeered my mind, but I can hear a more sensible voice muttering,No reason? What a pile of wyvern shit. Something fishy is going on here.

I glance down at the bed and back up at him. I’m fully clothed within a mountain of wool. This doesn’t seem suggestive to me, but maybe there’s something I’m not grasping. “Is there something sexy about blankets?”

He runs his tongue over his teeth and grasps one of the bed posts. “I don’t know. Maybe. How do you feel?”

“Cozy. Comfortable.”

“Mm. Lovely.” His gaze is unfocused as he watches me, his head on one side. “Anything else?”

“Warm. Safe.”

He groans a little and curses in Maledinni under his breath. “Do you want me to…come in there with you?”

“Why? Are you cold too?”

He smiles at me. “I’m fine, Omega. I thought you might like some company.”

Zabriel’s pupils are blown and there’s the same hungry look in his eyes as when he realized my slick was all over him. Come to think of it, there’s slick on my thighs now. “Wait. Is this a sex thing?”

“That depends on you. I was thinking I could find the places that are aching on your body and rub them for you. I’m always happy to touch you,sha’len.” A heated smile slides across his face.
