Gwyn could feel the warmth of the sun on her skin, but she could also feel Azriel's skin next to hers. She slightly smiles to herself, still quite not believing she's actually in Azriel's bed... naked. 

She wasn't expecting it to happen, but the second his lips touched hers last night, she was ready to be his in every way.

She slightly moves her head, adjusting her position on Azriel's chest. She can feel his mouth on her head as he leaves a kiss. 

"Good morning, sleepy head," his raspy voice immediately awakens something inside of her. 

"Mornin'." She yawns, burying her head in his chest. 

"I would've had breakfast ready, but you were sleeping on my chest, and I didn't want to wake you." He leaves another kiss on her head. 

"Good, now we can make it together." She smiles, and finally opens her eyes as she lifts her head towards him. 

"Cauldron, you are even more beautiful early in the morning," she whispers as she looks at his messy hair flying in all directions. 

A blush creeps up in Azriel's cheeks, and that makes Gwyn chuckle. She couldn't believe her simple comment made The Spymaster, The Shadowsinger, blush. It was adorable. 

A swirl of shadows comes rushing towards them, entangling themselves in Gwyn's hair. 

"You fools, leave her alone," Azriel's annoyed voice wasn't enough to make them stop.

They loved her. They adored her. He could see how much they liked being in her presence, she has a soothing presence. They know it, and he knows it. 

He never slept this long without any nightmares or waking up. He usually sleeps for an hour or maybe two if he's lucky. But never through the whole night. She is his safe place, his home. He was pissed at himself that it took him this long to figure out how he feels about her. Now that he finally did, he's never letting her go unless she asks him to.

"Az, you okay?" Her concerned voice brings him back from his thoughts. 

He looks down at her and smiles, "Yes, everything is great. I was just thinking how I've never slept through the night."

He couldn't believe how easy it was for him to open up to her. She just asked a simple question, but he was ready to lay out his whole heart in front of her. He knew she would love him anyway. 

"I'm glad I could help." She smirks and bites her bottom lip.

"I think breakfast can wait, there are far more important matters to be taken care of," Azriel says matching her smirk.

She chuckles, "Oh, really? Like what?" 

She loved to mess with him. If he tried to play her, she would pay him back with the same amount of wickedness. he loved that about her. She was quite stubborn, but in a way, you can't do anything else but stare in awe. 

"Like, me pleasuring you until whole Velaris can hear the screams of my name from your lips," he whispers in her ear. 

"Then you better get to it." She props herself on her elbows, spreading her legs for him. 

"As you command, my lady," Azriel smirks as he dives between her legs.
