Nurth was uncomfortably warm. Eating so much often left him with this sort of flushed and glowing sensation, and he was also still recovering from his short jaunt across the cave.
Well… to be honest, it was more of an intense, see-sawing waddle, scrabbling for traction two or three paws at a time. He might have stopped to rest a couple of times.
But now, with Frissura’s body draped across his back, the summer evening’s heat seemed to be assaulting him in full force. Rivulets of sweat ran down his hide.
He’d noticed when her breathing slowed, until it became only a gentle whisper in his ear.
Worse, there were a couple of leftovers Nurth might have reached – with difficulty, admittedly – but certainly not without waking her. He forced himself not to stir. The gentle gurgling from his own gut seemed impossibly loud, but she didn’t seem to notice. Perhaps those noises factored into her dreams.
Nurth couldn’t help but smile. All those minor things: his discomfort, nagging hunger, and even the awful cramp forming in his wing...
They were nothing. Because he was a body pillow fit for a princess.
