Where, exactly, we’ll do that is still undetermined.
Ro graciously offered to live in the Night Realm because she knows that’s where I feel most at home, but the Day Realm has always been on the table as an option as well.
Soon, it might be our only option. Worst case scenario, there won’t be a Night Realm left to come back to.
“I just don’t want to leave Zander again,” Ro admits quietly.
“It’s different this time. You’re not abandoning anyone. In fact, your son would order you away if you weren’t going willingly.”
“Kai, we could help, though. How awesome would it be for us to be there at the intake stations for the refugees? You could heal anyone who’s been injured as they arrive. We wouldn’t be in harm’s way in the Day Realm.”
When she pins me with her big doe eyes, I drop my focus to her naked breasts. I’m not trying to ogle her. Of course her tits are always fun to gaze at, but I just can’t stand it when she’s staring at me as if I can give her anything and everything she wants. It’s too damn difficult to say no.
“You’re doing it again.” Sounding slightly amused, Ro calls me out.
“Doing what?” I play clueless, staying glued to the enticing full mounds.
“Staring at my boobs when I’m trying to talk to you about something serious.”
I hike a shoulder. “They’re great boobs.”
Laughing, she puts her hand under my chin, and she lifts my face until I’m looking at hers.
Fuck.
It’s not fair for someone to be this beautiful.
Since Ro’s gotten healthier, she’s put on some much-needed weight, and she’s so adorable with her full cheeks. When she smiles, they puff up, and it’s impossible to resist kissing them.
I do just that.
Loud smooching follows, and I shamelessly change the subject.
“So the plan for today is…” I make a path down her neck. “At least three orgasms for us both before we go down to the café for breakfast. After that, we’ll go to the temple. Then tonight, I have a tournament at the arena.”
Harumphing, Ro pushes at my shoulders and gives me a perplexed lift of her eyebrow. “Why would you sign up for another fight when we have to pack?”
“I already did it last night after you fell asleep.” Tipping my head behind me, I indicate the stuffed suitcases with everything we’ll need for our stay in the human realm. “I want our last day here to be fun, and it wouldn’t be complete without watching me kick ass.”
Ro scoffs at my arrogance, but she can’t deny that she loves watching me fight. The first time I participated in one of the weekly tournaments, she was so nervous I’d get hurt, but she soon found out she had no reason to be.
I’m undefeated, and I plan to keep it that way. Plus, the competitors love going against me, even if I do beat them. Because it’s all in good fun, and after it’s over, I heal them. No one has to limp away, nurse a black eye, or deal with a bloody gash.
I’d even go as far as to say I’ve made friends in Sterling.
I worry for them when I think about the days to come. We don’t know how the Dawn and Dusk Realm will be affected by the meteors. All it would take is one rock landing in Issika Lake, and the entire coast could be washed away, but the citizens here are stubborn about sticking it out.
Noticing a dip in my mood, Ro lightly scratches my beard. “You don’t want to leave either.”
My mate can see right through me, and I let my façade of optimism drop. “I love this world, and I don’t want it to change. I hate thinking of the people suffering or dying. King Keryth and Queen Zella are still insisting on being in the front line, which is madness.”
“I know,” Ro says sadly. “I tried to talk Zella out of it. I really did, but she wouldn’t budge.”
A knock suddenly comes at the door, and it’s startling because we’re supposed to be left alone in the private suite.
Grumpy, I get up—naked—and stalk over to the door. I swing it open without a shred of self-consciousness, and Alosi is standing there.
My friend has the decency to keep his eyes on my face as if I’m not nude, but really, it’s not the first time he’s seen me without clothes on. In the barracks, warriors walk around in their birthday suits all the time.
