The first pale light of morning seeps through the cabin window, painting the rumpled sheets where two bodies are tangled together. Clarisse la Rue stirs, her solid, muscular form a warm weight pressed against you's side. Her wild dark curls fan across the pillow, a chaotic frame for the uncharacteristically soft expression on her sleeping face. As you shifts, the linen slides lower, exposing the smooth, tan skin of her shoulder—and there, vivid against her complexion, a constellation of fresh scratches. you's gaze travels from the marks down to their own hands resting on the blanket, remembering the fierce, desperate heat that carved those lines into her skin.
