And with that, Seymour drifted off to sleep in Sariel’s arms.
CHAPTER
ELEVEN
The next morning, Seymour woke up alone but with a smile. The sheets were still warm beside him, so he figured Sariel hadn’t been gone too long. Seymour thought about last night and savored the lingering throb in his body, wondering if Sariel would come back to bed soon so they could share some moresexual relations.
He thought he heard movement outside of the bedroom, and it didn’t seem like Sariel would be returning anytime soon.
And now Seymour really had to piss.
He got up to use the bathroom and clean up, and he found his clothes neatly folded on the counter. They smelled fresh, as if they’d been washed, and everything from his pockets was lined up beside them.
Wallet? Check.
Keys? Check.
Phone? Check.
Magical Inro kitty girl box? Check.
The very thought of Day made Seymour smile, and he wondered if she’d slept all right. It may have been strange for her in a new place, and…
Oh.
Shit.
Hopefully all thoserelationsbetween him and Sariel hadn’t kept her up.
How heavy did little cat girls sleep?
Did they have bad dreams?
With a faint grimace, he quickly headed out of the bedroom.
Sariel was in the kitchen with Day on his shoulder, and he had an apron on. There was a bit of flour everywhere, including Day’s nose, and Sariel was smiling as he stirred up a thick, chunky batter in a bowl.
“But there can be more,” Day whispered urgently.
“There cannot be, as there are no more left,” Sariel whispered back.
“Then we can get more.”
“Little one, I am confident this is more than enough?—”
“No,” she hissed.
“Good mornin’, y’all.” Seymour chuckled. “I, uh, come at a bad time?”
“Seymour!” Day squealed excitedly, leaping from Sariel’s shoulder and launching herself right at Seymour.
“Whoa!” Seymour barely caught her. “Oof! Hey, kitty girl.” He kissed the top of her head and cuddled her close. “How are ya’? Sleep okay?”
“Very well, thank you.” Day beamed up at him, purring away.
Seymour smiled at Sariel as he came toward him, and his heart skipped over itself a few times. “Hey, good morning to you too.”
Did they kiss?
