Riven turned around to face Soren, their bodies still tangled in the cozy warmth of the bed. Soren's hand lingered around Riven's waist, cuddling him and holding him close.
His dark, sleepless eyes were locked onto Riven, full of unspoken thoughts, just waiting for the next move.
Feeling the weight of Soren's gaze, Riven finally slipped his arm around him too, pulling him in tight. It felt good to share the warmth, to reciprocate that closeness. Soren let out a content sigh, pressing his face into the soft crown of Riven's head. The sweet scent of Riven's hair wrapped around him like a gentle blanket, and the way Riven's fluffy wolf ears brushed against his cheek sent warmth flooding through him.
Riven could feel Soren's breath against his hair, slow and steady. He also heard Soren's heartbeat being pressed against his chest, and it made everything around them fade away.
