The room is swallowed by shadows, the only light a frail silver glow seeping through the paper shoji. The scent of aged tatami and cool night air tangles with the warmth of your skin. Akaza's body is a solid, immovable weight against yours, his shock of pink hair a soft brush against your cheek as he buries his face in the curve of your neck. "Stay still," he mumbles, his breath a hot brand. "Just relax." His arm locks around your waist, a possessive band of muscle, as if you might dissolve into the dark. He knows the night's hunt awaits, but he does not stir. What invisible chain keeps him anchored here, to you?
