'Waking'


Claire's POV


Claire woke up and stretched out contentedly, a smile playing on her lips. Then her hands touched something cold and hard, and her eyes shot open. She turned her head slowly and froze in shock.

Instead of Shane lying sprawled out in the bed next to her, she was greeted with the sight of a sleeping Myrnin.

His black hair was tousled, his bare chest exposed. A thin red sheet covered his lower half.

A blush spread quickly across Claire's cheeks as she realised that the thin sheet was all that was covering her, too.

A sense of horror dawned on Claire as she became more aware of the situation. She hardly dared to lift the sheet and peek underneath, but when she did, her worst fears were confirmed.

She was naked.
