Hanna pulled up to a small cabin in the absolute middle of nowhere. She double checked the address Ethan had given her. This was the place. They had finally made it someplace out of the way. She was sure it was just the blackness of the night making the whole place a little spooky.78Please respect copyright.PENANAFphmsAYUPV
78Please respect copyright.PENANA44rzwb7U7y
It was difficult to see under the light of the waxing moon, but the ground and trees were still damp with last night's rainfall. The evergreens gave the area a subtle enclosed feeling, as if the place was hidden from the sky and everything else around it. The area around the building looked a bit overgrown and unkempt, like no one had been up here after the winter yet. Not only did the property appear to be quite large but, given the weather, there were likely less people around than usual which was a plus. At first glance, it seemed like a good spot to Hanna.78Please respect copyright.PENANAKTqtaTRnmX
78Please respect copyright.PENANABC3GikMbRS
Hanna could tell that Ethan was still fast asleep. She decided to scout out the place out before trying to wake him up, it seemed like he could use the rest. She left the headlights on, locked the car doors and walked up the gravel road to the front door. Then, she tried the number Ethan had scribbled down in the combination lock and it clicked open quietly.78Please respect copyright.PENANA3vv7FXYlGU
78Please respect copyright.PENANAoUapqXyCGn
Through the front door, she found the living room, with the kitchen behind it. There were also two bedrooms and a bathroom. At least there's a hot water heater, Hanna thought, continuing her inventory. She found a first aid kit and stuck it in the bedroom, knowing they'd make use of it later.78Please respect copyright.PENANAym5UXA1bZo
78Please respect copyright.PENANAJIVS73RsrN
It didn't take her long to figure out how to turn the power and water on. Then found the light switches. She went to search the small, cozy kitchen. A fair amount of canned food here, Hanna noted approvingly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAWB4WZw7cQG
78Please respect copyright.PENANAhX3cwTv3Nl
She realized this was meant to be a safe house. Probably where he would have gone if she'd told him his cover had been blown in the first place. It seemed well-stocked, secure and isolated. She was satisfied it was safe, at least for now.78Please respect copyright.PENANAKJzhhaEixu
78Please respect copyright.PENANAdpQLZGbykt
Her scouting completed, Hanna went back out to the car. She opened the passenger door and gently shook Ethan awake. Despite the drugs he'd taken earlier, he woke up quickly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAuZpnDjgQSN
78Please respect copyright.PENANAIl73c61TBg
"We're here," Hanna said softly. "This is the address you gave me."78Please respect copyright.PENANAMNFz5B4X4p
78Please respect copyright.PENANAIQJWLqEo2G
He blinked at her, then took in the surroundings, still looking a bit out of it. "Good," he mumbled.78Please respect copyright.PENANA37VrjUj0aG
78Please respect copyright.PENANA0ex2zRkF9N
"I didn't call anyone but are you sure there's no one you want me to contact? What about your family?" Hanna asked again, still confused as to why he was insistent on handling this on his own.78Please respect copyright.PENANAO6Wh4ks94B
78Please respect copyright.PENANAKQ5tLHCBAr
Ethan shook his head. "No, we should be safe here now." He got out of the car and wobbled on his feet, he felt the gravel underneath his shoes shifting.78Please respect copyright.PENANAIgqt44kKWD
78Please respect copyright.PENANAPaY1RrKgwE
Hanna took his arm to steady him as she looked at him with concern. "Are you okay?"78Please respect copyright.PENANAzifPoQihg1
78Please respect copyright.PENANABNo08kWL4g
Even such a simple touch was starting to arouse him, but he needed her support more than he wanted to admit. He leaned against the vehicle and she let go of him. The combined effects of the pills and heat were hitting him now, making his body feel like a battleground.78Please respect copyright.PENANAm1NEXbrFBr
78Please respect copyright.PENANADjw1SoRba8
Ethan took deep breaths of fresh air. No matter how much he wanted to, throwing her down on the ground here and having her right now would probably not be very pleasant. At the moment, he needed to focus on getting someplace more suitable. Preferably with many soft surfaces he could throw her down on. He tried to not distract himself further.78Please respect copyright.PENANAEPXp3tFF9e
78Please respect copyright.PENANAu8h2To9wv9
"We should go inside," Ethan mumbled. The fire growing inside him was starting to counteract the effects of the drugs. Making him feel more awake and aware.78Please respect copyright.PENANAoXYosHJbMB
78Please respect copyright.PENANAky1QNanA5r
"Are you alright?" Hanna repeated.78Please respect copyright.PENANA9nHvSDWHdk
78Please respect copyright.PENANAngJ87tmeQ4
Ethan made a frustrated sound. "No. We need to get inside," he repeated more urgently. Despite his tone, he wasn't moving, he was still leaning against the car.78Please respect copyright.PENANAU3HIhJhIFY
78Please respect copyright.PENANASTPo3SYfRe
"Alright, do you want help?" Hanna asked.78Please respect copyright.PENANALtSkrlMG0M
78Please respect copyright.PENANAF1u8KkirCW
Ethan nodded reluctantly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAqUeWS8NAcz
78Please respect copyright.PENANAl6tuyOYFNo
Hanna draped his arm over her shoulder. "Okay, let's go." She took only some of his weight, helping him keep his balance more than anything else. She noticed how he was clearly in a rush, despite his current state.78Please respect copyright.PENANAM98Nj9V7ir
78Please respect copyright.PENANAHxkUL2ffo4
Hanna gripped him tighter as he stumbled over a bump in the dirt, practically invisible under the moonlight. "We can go slower," she offered.78Please respect copyright.PENANAryE15Q5EOn
78Please respect copyright.PENANAPZrignoD7W
"Not unless you want me to rip your clothes off out here," Ethan grumbled, eyes laser focused on the front door. He was trying desperately not to think about her touch.78Please respect copyright.PENANAYQy9t02mVX
78Please respect copyright.PENANA7TYAO8OorD
"Oh. Right." Hanna blushed. She hadn't realized his condition was due to the heat. "Inside, then we can do whatever you want."78Please respect copyright.PENANAlKpknm0qDX
78Please respect copyright.PENANAMfi5KTq8Qe
"Dangerous promise," Ethan mumbled faintly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAfrFtGUGDcp
78Please respect copyright.PENANAKhQYGE2e9C
Hanna blushed harder. She continued walking with him towards the cabin. On the way, she started to mentally catalogue Ethan's symptoms out of habit. The quick and shallow breathing. How the pink tint in his cheeks seemed to be making it's way down his neck. The tension in his jaw.78Please respect copyright.PENANA6SXA5z04oY
78Please respect copyright.PENANAGMIQWkZIiG
They were nearly at the front door. He didn't need her support anymore. He lowered his arm to her waist, pressing her onwards now. Hanna felt herself getting wet with anticipation as Ethan opened the door in a rush.78Please respect copyright.PENANAMIx9SgzTGO
78Please respect copyright.PENANA4pGWZyySM8
Ethan let his control slip as soon as they crossed the threshold. They were barely inside when he grabbed her and started kissing her. Every kiss, every touch on her skin, was intoxicating. It all made him just want her more.78Please respect copyright.PENANAO83sE16wCt
78Please respect copyright.PENANAFvRSxPJFAp
Everything about her, every part of her, was so damn hot. Ethan wasn't sure if it was the heat making him feel this way but he didn't care. He wanted her now. Nothing was going to get in his way.78Please respect copyright.PENANAawrIo5w8YT
78Please respect copyright.PENANAglRaUq39VA
Hanna slyly closed the door behind them. She rushed to take off her clothes, before he started ripping them off, but he was already ahead of her. He pulled her shirt over her head then started fumbling with her bra's clasp. She found that kind of funny and let him play with it for a minute.78Please respect copyright.PENANAwk0cjO8VKm
78Please respect copyright.PENANAo3D49kWmKR
"Should I wear a front-clasping bra next time so it's easier for you to take off?" Hanna joked.78Please respect copyright.PENANAthbkQaMdmo
78Please respect copyright.PENANAT3xkhVxJLL
Ethan made a sound that was suspiciously close to a growl. "I'm trying not to break it."78Please respect copyright.PENANAhd2a7PA5AF
78Please respect copyright.PENANAj6u9I6mivh
She could feel his hot breath on her cheek, fast and inconsistent. She felt him grind against her, already hard. So this is what the heat's really like, she thought to herself. It looks like some things weren't an exaggeration.78Please respect copyright.PENANARmbkcf5NDs
78Please respect copyright.PENANAzdjWOV0dvy
Hanna saw a feral look in his eyes that was so damn sexy she nearly dismissed the idea that it might be a bad sign. Feeling his frustration and figuring she'd move things along, she guided his hands to push her bra together and it came undone. Just like that, the garment was gone.78Please respect copyright.PENANAVR7ivfnoER
78Please respect copyright.PENANAk8ito75t8s
She noted he didn't even slow down at the success. He tried to take off her pants so frantically she nearly fell over. "I've got it," she said, shooing his hands away for the instant. "You've got your own things to deal with."78Please respect copyright.PENANAiJ59CMd1JM
78Please respect copyright.PENANAZeGamIPS3O
She'd been warned Charax could be almost animalistic when it came to sex but this was the first time she saw how accurate that could be. He seemed so focused and driven but clumsy and impatient all at once.78Please respect copyright.PENANAwsbQxenX5I
78Please respect copyright.PENANAUjG444F954
He seemed to finally realize he'd take to take off his own clothes as well, not simply hers. He pulled his shirt up over his head and nearly hit her with it. He seemed to fumble around with his own belt buckle. She took his hands in hers to still them and get his attention. She looked into his eyes, they were bordering on desperate. "Calm down," she ordered.78Please respect copyright.PENANADWibTeYExw
78Please respect copyright.PENANA02iFxhgAsL
Ethan closed his eyes and attempted to steady his breathing. Hanna took the chance to undo his belt buckle for him. Then she held his hand lightly. He gripped her hand in return, using the feel of her skin to ground himself as the waves of arousal washed over him.78Please respect copyright.PENANAUnhQ6a38ie
78Please respect copyright.PENANAKtt9kkJdhY
"Better?" She asked, all she got was a nod in return. She wasn't satisfied with that, she held his jaw, gently encouraging him to face her. He opened his eyes, now clear and focused. "Better?" She repeated.78Please respect copyright.PENANAPzfDXrb3fE
78Please respect copyright.PENANAkJKFHI4YWj
"Yes," Ethan managed.78Please respect copyright.PENANAwV5fnk1avm
78Please respect copyright.PENANAEEqUtHm7xV
"Good," Hanna said softly. "Tell me if that changes."78Please respect copyright.PENANAQhLJYrFn1T
78Please respect copyright.PENANALJvkeDtSfU
Ethan nodded, getting right back into the flow. He ran his hands all over her skin, feeling her in places she didn't know she enjoyed. That just made her want to touch him more.78Please respect copyright.PENANAKkUZcT3faw
78Please respect copyright.PENANAV0ila7VXIM
"Can I touch you?" Hanna asked softly.78Please respect copyright.PENANABmXbyO9Iij
78Please respect copyright.PENANArNxpNp6jEP
"Yeah. Of course." Ethan didn't shift his focus from her breasts for a moment.78Please respect copyright.PENANACLTriiQwjr
78Please respect copyright.PENANAB8BHi12Hx9
Hanna cocked her head to the side slightly. "You said earlier..."78Please respect copyright.PENANAkBl0gki1Pa
78Please respect copyright.PENANA2nX2fP1oTY
"It's just very arousing." Ethan's skin was nearly radiating warmth now. "It was frustrating back there."78Please respect copyright.PENANAXIPV390k3i
78Please respect copyright.PENANApmkM3PMZU6
Hanna ran a hand along his spine, noting the shiver that went through him. "So good now then?"78Please respect copyright.PENANA2dmnNzF3Vw
78Please respect copyright.PENANAKC6wXijNcS
"Yes." Ethan kissed her breast. "Very." He planted another kiss on her collarbone. He kissed her again, accidentally putting his hand on her neck, partially on the burned skin. She winced at the painful sensation. He felt her reaction and pulled back immediately to get a good look at her.
"What is it?" Ethan asked with concern in his eyes.78Please respect copyright.PENANAQx9PiZgwDC
78Please respect copyright.PENANAY60xLkiq9c
"It's nothing," Hanna answered dismissively as she stretched out her neck and adjusted her hair.78Please respect copyright.PENANAMCUfoaPqgT
78Please respect copyright.PENANAs0qfyxX2R6
"Tell me," Ethan insisted.78Please respect copyright.PENANA2sI7hZARii
78Please respect copyright.PENANABEhjTHsXDa
"Just the burns," Hanna answered reluctantly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAlHR1IQ4dg5
78Please respect copyright.PENANApgYIG3JDjs
Ethan pushed back her hair to take another look at them. They looked worst, small blisters had formed and the skin around them looked red and inflamed. He wished they'd just go away. He hated what they represented.78Please respect copyright.PENANABPI0C6KZmP
78Please respect copyright.PENANAbrjgFCH2SQ
"I'll avoid them," Ethan spoke softly, "but you need to tell me if anything hurts."78Please respect copyright.PENANAFx7PtIrhpL
78Please respect copyright.PENANASEnI3LpH9d
Hanna nodded then kissed his chest.78Please respect copyright.PENANAo7OAx0kJXP
78Please respect copyright.PENANAMHMpcOLvGd
"I'm serious," he emphasized, looking into her deep brown eyes.78Please respect copyright.PENANA44hBNNiNjZ
78Please respect copyright.PENANAvx2G2ySE9o
"I will," she promised.78Please respect copyright.PENANApSWUZtHvyH
78Please respect copyright.PENANADhoKPmmLBl
He tilted her chin upwards slightly, there being little difference in their height, and kissed her deeply, pushing his tongue into her mouth. He kept her there for a moment, before breaking away. She stood there, breathless and dazed, afterwards.78Please respect copyright.PENANA3l2UgdPrTX
78Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ocw640rGR
Ethan managed to get the rest of his clothes off on his own. She was almost undressed. He took a second to orient himself in the room. She had just slipped off her panties.78Please respect copyright.PENANAutGTnXt0DK
78Please respect copyright.PENANACv8RG1ahPo
Seeing the sofa behind him, he decided he wanted her on top of him. Just in case. He bent down and picked her up by her armpits and she instinctively wrapped her legs around him, letting out a small yelp in surprise. His hard cock was sandwiched between them as he held her.78Please respect copyright.PENANARdd16hqTdV
78Please respect copyright.PENANAmEfeHqTUOm
"I've got you," Ethan reassured her with a grin.78Please respect copyright.PENANAopHjXBI4cm
78Please respect copyright.PENANAepUve232X5
"Uh." Hanna did not look very convinced, she glanced down at his ankle uncertainly.78Please respect copyright.PENANA9QUYlrsU72
78Please respect copyright.PENANAgM96v7yMHK
He then sat himself down on to the soft, worn cushions of the sofa, leaning backwards. Straddling him with her knees on the cushions, she had to throw her hands out onto his shoulders to keep from falling on top of him unexpectedly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAbshMLkTPHS
78Please respect copyright.PENANA4hobUJSBN2
She readjusted herself so could sit on his thighs without worrying about falling over. His fingers started racing over her skin, moving downwards then playing around her centre. He found her folds, investigating them with his fingers as his searched for what he wanted. She trembled slightly, enjoying that sensation.78Please respect copyright.PENANAf35wDPArp2
78Please respect copyright.PENANAsFBzwlcv6T
"We could find the bedroom before-" she was cut off mid-sentence by her own gasp of pleasure, he had managed to find her clit. He smiled, enjoying his success and continued to stimulate the area.78Please respect copyright.PENANApXPcpfhW2I
78Please respect copyright.PENANAJDPuh8CWOA
It seems he wasn't trying to race through things like last time or not as much as last time at least. She wasn't going to be walking anywhere as long as he was doing that.78Please respect copyright.PENANACSWUrEgBth
78Please respect copyright.PENANAyDY3MxXs0n
"I want you to enjoy yourself," Ethan told her.78Please respect copyright.PENANAQ95zQ9dFDw
78Please respect copyright.PENANA0CViu80uIR
"Oh, I am." She threw her head back and let out another gasp between breaths as he continued to tease her. "Believe me," she responded. "Don't worry." She moaned. "It's your heat, take what you need."78Please respect copyright.PENANAQMzC7ZFR5B
78Please respect copyright.PENANAEqDI7QJDpF
Ethan considered that, not stopping his motion. Maybe he wasn't thinking straight, maybe this was another part of the heat. Some biological imperative to convince her to become his mate and bear his children. That idea seemed a bit far fetched to him.78Please respect copyright.PENANAWp8YAruLNJ
78Please respect copyright.PENANAzNGwliFJcd
Last time had been a rush, a band-aid solution, now he was starting to feel a deeper connection to her. He could take his time with her now and he wanted to. Maybe he shouldn't risk getting so attached to someone he was going to have to leave anyways.78Please respect copyright.PENANAThgzhXIM5q
78Please respect copyright.PENANAdZuBoUyrnE
Ethan decided he didn't care. He knew he loved the sounds escaping her lips and he wanted to hear more. It was that simple. "Okay, it's my heat and this is what I want to do."78Please respect copyright.PENANAiwLENdvWbQ
78Please respect copyright.PENANA2X341MWxDP
"No objections," Hanna panted.78Please respect copyright.PENANACOsNbRXUqR
78Please respect copyright.PENANAOrSVwDKGGq
"Good." Ethan smiled broadly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAk29rGyou3S
78Please respect copyright.PENANAXGrEGnhP1E
He was surprised at how vocal she was. She must have been holding back previously but there was no one to overhear them out here. He was glad she felt safe enough to be that loud, he enjoyed hearing her. He rubbed circles into her sensitive spot and delighted in watching her throw her head back.78Please respect copyright.PENANAEsA7qBuaPU
78Please respect copyright.PENANAoUlu57YBDl
"I'm ready," Hanna said, breathing heavy. She lifted herself above him.78Please respect copyright.PENANAGokRih0Eoc
78Please respect copyright.PENANAGf30VPfdAQ
"I'll be the judge of that," Ethan said, pulling his fingers back from her clit. "Stay still." He traced his finger along her skin until he found her entrance, then stuck a finger in her pussy to feel how wet she was.78Please respect copyright.PENANAqXulmYQ6Q6
78Please respect copyright.PENANA6AnWqRSxIU
She held as still as could, moaning softly at the new sensation.78Please respect copyright.PENANAfSBfXZSDRc
78Please respect copyright.PENANAh5reMAmNLP
"Hold still for me." He felt her tense up inside and his finger came away slick. He was in agreement, she was more than wet enough for what he wanted.78Please respect copyright.PENANAUQ5U8RwuKa
78Please respect copyright.PENANAj9Simau0D3
"Please!" Hanna moaned.78Please respect copyright.PENANAtf68mtsodk
78Please respect copyright.PENANAfL05h85GyY
Ethan grinned. "Please what?"78Please respect copyright.PENANAEZPRSulHBJ
78Please respect copyright.PENANAREkNInEYms
"Please make love to me," Hanna whispered, looking down at him with lust-filled eyes.78Please respect copyright.PENANAas0X44w3x8
78Please respect copyright.PENANA2j7Ue0nvb1
Ethan couldn't keep the delight off his face. He put his arms around her waist and gently pulled her closer so they'd be lined up. He thrust up towards her, lifting his hips off the sofa.78Please respect copyright.PENANA6u8epbkt1Q
78Please respect copyright.PENANATVv4JasNaj
As he pushed the head in, he felt her clamp down on him. She was so warm, so good. He exhaled softly. For a moment, he felt like his body was torn between climaxing right there and wanting this to go on forever. He watched her chest rise and fall with her face looking up at the ceiling.78Please respect copyright.PENANA5WAV48xEL0
78Please respect copyright.PENANAEj0Q89nIPl
He paused there, waiting a moment to see if she'd open up to him. Not willing to force himself in, he simply spoke to her softly. "Relax." She shuddered and let out a breath, twisting to look at him again with happiness in her eyes.78Please respect copyright.PENANAaRShucxbWS
78Please respect copyright.PENANACNu5ii9ugy
He then found he had room to move deeper inside her. He sighed as he went further, feeling the pressure buildup within him starting to decrease now that he was in the moment.78Please respect copyright.PENANA6L7i08R02l
78Please respect copyright.PENANAm4jHncoLtv
Hanna gasped as he made his first thrust into her. She seemed to inadvertently lower herself more than planned. Her body reacted by throwing her head back and arching her back, fully exposing her bronze breasts beautifully.78Please respect copyright.PENANAvK407gIzBx
78Please respect copyright.PENANApL2xXmW5A1
Her walls were wrapping around him, squeezing him and awakening areas of his mind that he didn't even know existed. This was so unlike any time before, any time he'd had sex before the heat. Even last time hadn't felt like this, but he'd been too stressed and too concerned to properly enjoy it.78Please respect copyright.PENANA4ythjDJF3B
78Please respect copyright.PENANALha77y9LPl
He hadn't had a chance to savour it before, to savour being inside her. It didn't just feel good, it felt right, and while he relished the feeling of his cock finally deep inside her, those bouncing petite breasts were just begging for his attention. He kissed them both before letting his hips settle back down so he could thrust up again.78Please respect copyright.PENANAl32L5tncTa
78Please respect copyright.PENANAV7f7HMsPyL
"How is it?" Hanna asked breathlessly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAcnVjnd07zz
78Please respect copyright.PENANAGpgcoOdwAk
"What do you mean?" Ethan asked, confused as he paused for a moment.78Please respect copyright.PENANAynCfLMELJB
78Please respect copyright.PENANAe2G1sKVay3
Hanna bit her lower lip. "Is it enough?"78Please respect copyright.PENANACuoX4h2SMb
78Please respect copyright.PENANApUHZR1qjWv
Ethan almost laughed at her but only grinned. "You're perfect. All of you." He squeezed both sides of her waist.78Please respect copyright.PENANA4PVKrfvdB1
78Please respect copyright.PENANAwmyKpcXfGC
Hanna blushed generously at the compliment. He started to thrust back into her at a slow pace. He was planning to take his time with her, go slow and shallow. She didn't have the same plan.78Please respect copyright.PENANA186nGK4qD7
78Please respect copyright.PENANAYIwxZ5MedS
She lowered herself down slightly, sliding further down his cock. He gasped at the feeling of her engulfing him more. She smirked at him as he thrust deeper now. She ended up lowering herself all the way, pushing him down with her weight and nearly damping his moments entirely. He was mildly irritated at the control being taken away from him.78Please respect copyright.PENANATGNGWz1WOj
78Please respect copyright.PENANAl4IMoRlDGp
"Let me take you there," Hanna said softly. She lowered her face to his and kissed him deeply.78Please respect copyright.PENANAaHMc39fsNx
78Please respect copyright.PENANAkt6dgW0OPY
His irritation vanished in an instant.78Please respect copyright.PENANABqQabN6kGG
78Please respect copyright.PENANAPWWMtYMUeb
Then she started riding him, setting the pace. She soon had him panting and grunting under her. So damn sexy, she thought, I could watch this all day.78Please respect copyright.PENANAZoq2nBxqOZ
78Please respect copyright.PENANANedlxzk3GZ
He was so close now. He'd prefer to last a little while longer, he could see how much she was enjoying it, but he was reaching his limit. He couldn't hold back any longer, then was rewarded with ecstasy and release flooding his senses.78Please respect copyright.PENANAuMxbPhmhvP
78Please respect copyright.PENANAD0ZsqUxLri
Hanna heard a deep, low groan from deep within him but she kept going, drawing him out as much as she could. She watched him carefully, eyes peeled for any signs he was going to faint. She smiled slyly as she saw the expression on his face.78Please respect copyright.PENANAvVyst0BeJD
78Please respect copyright.PENANAZtZR2RPff2
Suddenly, he gripped her hips tightly against him, stopping her movements with his cock as deep as it could go. He closed his eyes, trying to forget everything except this moment. He wanted to feel her, wanted to just sit there in the afterglow without the pressure, or the drive of the heat, just to sit there with her in satisfaction. This time felt so much better than the last. He was tired without being exhausted. Dizzy but not lightheaded, and he didn't feel like he was going to faint this time.78Please respect copyright.PENANADgYid70HZx
78Please respect copyright.PENANAEyozPcT3PL
Hanna squirmed a bit but he held his grip and she tried her best to stay still. She could feel his cock just sitting there, deep inside her and it was driving her a bit crazy. She tried not to think about it, instead opting to watch him closely, remembering what had happened previously. She couldn't see his face now, as he rested his forehead against her chest.78Please respect copyright.PENANAz3mGdULBn8
78Please respect copyright.PENANA6Wq12jsjxl
He was panting heavily but she didn't think he'd lose consciousness. He still appeared to have a bit of trouble catching his breath. His hair was sweaty and pasted to his forehead. When she went to brush it aside, he leaned into her touch.78Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4z6Cclmeg
78Please respect copyright.PENANAtkeM8vVE6x
He felt her start squirming again and couldn't resist a smirk. He found that incredibly cute. He'd have to see how long she could take it before begging another time, as he could feel himself start to soften. As soon as she started to move, he loosened his arms, releasing her. He rested his head back against the cushions, eyes closed.78Please respect copyright.PENANAK4IWg8sdDx
78Please respect copyright.PENANAxXWKraI5ha
"How are you doing?" Hanna asked softly, hoping he'd be able to talk.78Please respect copyright.PENANAyzgsHjt3WB
78Please respect copyright.PENANAQQDeKSSmue
"Need a minute," Ethan mumbled, still panting.78Please respect copyright.PENANA16mQTTqYnd
78Please respect copyright.PENANAd1lU4yCdIm
Hanna got off of him carefully and went to clean herself up in the washroom. She checked on the burns, wanting to make the blisters weren't broken, to find them completely gone. The bruises might have been a mistake but these burns had healed unnaturally fast, it was impressive. She wondered if Ethan knew what he was doing and if this was related to his level of exhaustion.78Please respect copyright.PENANAxJ90LBWD03
78Please respect copyright.PENANAPQUV4Aozya
Ethan regretted letting her leave almost immediately. His desire to touch her, to be close to her, was still strong. He suppressed a growl of displeasure, he knew he couldn't keep her next to him constantly and he wasn't going to whine about her leaving for a few moments. He'd just have to get used to this feeling of emptiness, it was just another Charax urge to suppress.78Please respect copyright.PENANAJySRoqQZpT
78Please respect copyright.PENANAV0NAoVrwP3
She returned a few minutes later. "Can you walk?"78Please respect copyright.PENANAcfWZ7TKNm2
78Please respect copyright.PENANAoKJKyeJXVF
"Yes, I think so." Ethan was only panting lightly now. "I don't feel as dizzy as last time."78Please respect copyright.PENANA8S7sItugwG
78Please respect copyright.PENANAlBN0tTZoxY
Hanna helped him up, noticing how unsteady he was, then she nudged him towards the bedroom. When that didn't work, she took his arm and led him over. Once in the main bedroom, she got him to sit down on the king-sized bed so she could check him over again.78Please respect copyright.PENANANMuFhFvo3s
78Please respect copyright.PENANAcfkexW2pLE
Hanna could tell that he was already starting to get better, even if it was only slowly. At least his temperature is back to normal, Hanna thought, I'm not going to pretend I understand what's going on there. Pretty sure sex doesn't cure fevers in Terrans.78Please respect copyright.PENANABOoObYvsaC
78Please respect copyright.PENANA2GblSzfbLl
She could tell he was still exhausted, despite the nap on the way here and fluctuating energy levels. She wondered if he had slept there at all. Probably not, she figured, unless they knocked him out. He might be a bit dehydrated but she concluded he was going to be fine.78Please respect copyright.PENANAwdOGLkLy3h
78Please respect copyright.PENANA3Bd9XCZQOC
"How much blood did they take?" Hanna asked.78Please respect copyright.PENANAAeLOnORSug
78Please respect copyright.PENANAq0Qm2mL2T3
"I saw a bag," Ethan answered uncertainly.78Please respect copyright.PENANAQaMDXXQeTo
78Please respect copyright.PENANA79Ej5913AD
"Probably more. That might be the reason behind some of these problems," Hanna reasoned. "Drink some more water, that'll help." She passed him a water bottle. "I'm really glad you didn't faint this time, it's a good sign."78Please respect copyright.PENANAt2Keqhxmiw
78Please respect copyright.PENANAvzGN6tKT2W
Ethan's face reddened with embarrassment. "I swear I don't usually faint in the middle." He started to drink.78Please respect copyright.PENANA4BJTLyqNRk
78Please respect copyright.PENANAPahUAAkxQM
"Or you could just pretend I was so good you passed out," Hanna teased him mercilessly.78Please respect copyright.PENANA6JoLIkNBOy
78Please respect copyright.PENANAPImJkZOvpu
Ethan let out a muffled coughed, trying his hardest not to laugh with a mouth full of water. He swallowed then coughed again.78Please respect copyright.PENANADmhUlzq0M5
78Please respect copyright.PENANAlDG05JyUmD
Hanna frowned slightly. "Alright, no more jokes."78Please respect copyright.PENANAqL9xN0qYXD
78Please respect copyright.PENANAGVL7Hwqj4i
"I'm fine," Ethan replied before finishing off the bottle.78Please respect copyright.PENANAQngjYmJw8h
78Please respect copyright.PENANA2eRMXgRWcj
Hanna grabbed the first aid kit and set it on the bed. "I want to check your ankle, okay?"78Please respect copyright.PENANACKqdmkYhCk
78Please respect copyright.PENANAG9d3oqDdd3
"Yeah." Ethan moved his leg up on to the bed.78Please respect copyright.PENANAPHqwIYrO94
78Please respect copyright.PENANAIHpTZWxrbK
Hanna peeled off the poorly applied bandage carefully. The good news was it didn't look infected. The bad news was that it was still bleeding. She noted the wound was healing at the rate she'd expect from a normal Terran, definitely lacking the healing boost that her injuries had gotten.78Please respect copyright.PENANAc7NSs03Unc
78Please respect copyright.PENANARWm2alCJ1x
"I'll need to clean this," Hanna concluded.78Please respect copyright.PENANAo1Ru6BAfzC
78Please respect copyright.PENANAYHB9pnpEkT
"I already did that," Ethan grumbled.78Please respect copyright.PENANA97vLusGv8l
78Please respect copyright.PENANAAtQKWJWBiw
"You didn't do a good enough job," Hanna responded. "I'll be right back." Ethan only nodded in response.78Please respect copyright.PENANALjkBdz6kfd
78Please respect copyright.PENANAnICdyaSuq9
Hanna got a wet cloth and fresh bandages. She dabbed at the wound, trying to get the dirt out. He jerked his leg back with a grimace and she stopped. "Sorry. Did you take some of the painkillers?"78Please respect copyright.PENANAofYEa4kZKy
78Please respect copyright.PENANAmU8lnNZEZN
"Yes," he lied. He didn't want any. The pain was the only other thing keeping the full force of the heat out of his head. It could already feel overwhelming as it was and he didn't want to find out how much stronger it could get.78Please respect copyright.PENANA7NIOTy32Rd
78Please respect copyright.PENANALLk8aOPNOF
"Do you want more?" Hanna asked.78Please respect copyright.PENANAMYEp3PgtUq
78Please respect copyright.PENANAHRdwef192Y
"No, just get it over with," Ethan said, readjusting his leg.78Please respect copyright.PENANAqsHQvxUlz7
78Please respect copyright.PENANAE0VEXpqmO3
Hanna finished cleaning the wound. She taped it back together with fresh bandages, hoping it would stop bleeding once he stopped using it. She handed Ethan the cloth so he could wipe off some of the other dirt off his skin before heading to the kitchen for a glass of water. By the time she got back, he was already in the bed and from the look of him, half asleep too. She set the glass on the table, next to the empty water bottle, and sat down on the bed.78Please respect copyright.PENANAPF1fmDe3JB
78Please respect copyright.PENANA8U1Hb3TGHb
Hanna started thinking about her next move when Ethan started pulling her into the bed. She was easily persuaded into getting under the warm covers with him. When she did, he immediately pulled her in close to him.78Please respect copyright.PENANAmv23XXc9R1
78Please respect copyright.PENANA7dO4EiPYrS
Hanna was a bit startled. Sex, she'd been expecting that, everyone knew Charax men got extremely horny in heat. Cuddles, not so expected. She didn't mind, even though it wasn't usually her thing.78Please respect copyright.PENANAr0pwXt74HT
78Please respect copyright.PENANAT0hpfb6cW4
It's not like I got a brochure about Charax, she thought in amusement. This day had been nothing but surprising to her, she figured she should almost start expecting the unexpected. She wondered what else she didn't know about heat. Maybe the rapid healing was a part of that. While she was here and he was still awake, she might as well ask him. She twisted around to face him.78Please respect copyright.PENANA8gtNMSQbU8
78Please respect copyright.PENANAKYVqlyZeXh
"My burns are gone," Hanna stated.78Please respect copyright.PENANApV77soT01f
78Please respect copyright.PENANAaBiJpguebE
"What?" Ethan said groggily, moving her hair aside to check her neck. He repeatedly ran his fingers along the smooth skin where the collar had burned her, as if he couldn't believe what he was feeling. "How?"78Please respect copyright.PENANAKGT6kQOucu
78Please respect copyright.PENANADpyZL5YkSH
Hanna eyed him curiously. "You tell me."78Please respect copyright.PENANArIZcewcMPr
78Please respect copyright.PENANABXiQVysxc1
Ethan stared at the area in disbelief, brushing his fingers along her neck. Then he yawned. "Let me sleep on this."78Please respect copyright.PENANAJA72ZssSSA
78Please respect copyright.PENANAvo0fIlDP1I
Hanna gripped his hand. "If you're doing something and it's exhausting you then you need to stop. I can deal with some burns and bruises. You're in worse shape."78Please respect copyright.PENANA7yUdZlpR6U
78Please respect copyright.PENANAY5d0smKHpC
"I'm not doing anything. I'm exhausted for a whole bunch of other reasons," Ethan explained. "Like having my blood stolen," he emphasized.78Please respect copyright.PENANA5WDKQHrNX7
78Please respect copyright.PENANAIsVbUxUxiI
Hanna looked at him skeptically but didn't want to push the issue, seeing as his eyelids were already drooping. "Okay. Before you fall asleep, do you need anything else?"78Please respect copyright.PENANAvks3VcIVes
78Please respect copyright.PENANAgZ2C2GL4SH
"I need to know you're okay," Ethan mumbled, half-asleep.78Please respect copyright.PENANA96wZqBRcfj
78Please respect copyright.PENANAr0KlwLumhb
Hanna smiled at his request. "I'm much better than okay."78Please respect copyright.PENANAOjNrSHbUVd
78Please respect copyright.PENANAR0FcZb55i8
She saw a slight smile grace his tired face.78Please respect copyright.PENANAlWV6hwO1o9
78Please respect copyright.PENANAt39vgBYZMX
"If you're going to leave, you should do it before I wake up," Ethan mumbled, quieter than before.78Please respect copyright.PENANA0IhkJdi5ul
78Please respect copyright.PENANAGrMja5jPl5
Hanna had a puzzled look on her face. "I'm not going to leave."78Please respect copyright.PENANAceXD10Z8MZ
78Please respect copyright.PENANAcYNAvkzFPc
Ethan didn't respond, already asleep. Hanna relaxed next to him, watching him for a bit. Before long, she began to feel drowsy herself. It wasn't late in her mind but some sleep wouldn't hurt, it had been a long drive anyways. She yawned and let herself drift off in his arms.78Please respect copyright.PENANAZRInpumB6A
