Sleep

Alec was out. She stared at him through the small crack in his bedroom door, surprised she was getting away with this. His distress was clear; he didn't even sense another presence.

And an unwelcome one, at that.

But he was asleep. And she was glad. He even looked relaxed—she'd go as far as to say languid. His entire body was stretched out, his back arched lightly, and his limbs were scattered loosely around him. He grunted lowly, and one of his hands twitched.

It was a wonder they couldn't tell what he was just by watching him sleep.
