The rays of the morning sun seeped through the windows of the house. Aric's eye twitched and then opened. He felt a weight on his body. He looked down and saw Ariel lying on his arm.
He recalled all that had happened last night—the fiery moment of passion they had that only lasted for hours despite it being their first.
Her naked body lay on his own on the bed without any care in the world. His ear twitched, and he heard the sound of people moving. That meant the others were waking up.
"Shit, we need to get dressed," he said quickly and opened the system interface, went to the shop, and searched for a gown for Ariel. He got one that seemed simple.
The clothes appeared, and he started tapping her to wake her up. She let out a groan but didn't wake up. Aric leaned in closer and spoke into her ear.
"You know, if you don't wake up, someone that isn't me might see you naked," Aric said. Her eyes twitched and opened. She pouted at Aric, but he gave her a smile in response.
