More than eight hours later...
"Haaah..."
I exhaled deeply.
Glancing to my right, I saw Eleonora sleeping peacefully. Her breath was slow and even, her face relaxed in a way I hadn't seen before.
Her eyelids fluttered a little as she shifted, adjusting to find a more comfortable position.
"I need a cigarette."
The words slipped out before I could stop them.
I hadn't smoked since I got here, but after everything that had happened today...
Yeah, I really wanted one. It was like a part of me missed the habit, the moment of peace it gave me after intense situations like this.
What time is it?
I turned my head to glance at the clock on the wall.
11:21.
"She was really in heat, damn."
I couldn't help but chuckle softly, my gaze drifting back to Eleonora, who was still lost in her dreams. I guess the lust of older women is something else, huh?
Still, I couldn't stay here forever.
I could spend the night here, sure, but I knew Alaine and Chaerin would be missing me by now.
