The next morning, Nina woke up in Odian's arms.
"You're awake, Nina? Did you sleep well? Do you want to rest a little longer?" Odian asked softly.
Nestled against his chest, Nina rubbed lightly against him and shook her head. The soft, alluring way she moved made Odian's restraint crumble. Unable to resist, he pressed her back onto the bed again and tangled with her for a while longer.
Only after quite some time did Nina finally push him away, her voice slightly hoarse.
"Stop it… we should probably head back now."
She had a feeling it was already quite late.
Odian kissed her reluctantly. "Alright."
He knew they had to return—otherwise those other males would surely start losing their patience.
Taking out a clean set of clothes, he prepared to help Nina get dressed.
Nina felt a little embarrassed. "I can do it myself."
Odian chuckled softly but continued dressing her with calm, deliberate movements.
"Nina, this is something a mate should do. You'll have to get used to it."
