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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAjyrlNoX6XX
180Please respect copyright.PENANA315SHRK7Bl
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAjgRMtSUJGC
180Please respect copyright.PENANAhnupzkwQ0t
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAY1FFZP8wtg
180Please respect copyright.PENANA0AecQX61Az
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAb4gjeVxb5c
180Please respect copyright.PENANANc6mqTxWib
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAFKFLBb1zak
180Please respect copyright.PENANAG6BueS4gFl
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAB0ve5DxXHa
180Please respect copyright.PENANA2IDcTwIrMk
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA6u9pwfALHt
180Please respect copyright.PENANAfxKw2QFLoz
"We're here," Hanna said softly. "This is the address you gave me."180Please respect copyright.PENANAdPtNStF9j0
180Please respect copyright.PENANArZAjkDXJWI
He blinked at her, then took in the surroundings, still looking a bit out of it. "Good," he mumbled.180Please respect copyright.PENANAf0roDzWvox
180Please respect copyright.PENANA38AkEhAYpb
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAmpbF22oUqB
180Please respect copyright.PENANAMdTdpr8ecA
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAaO8aMsrbcV
180Please respect copyright.PENANAIGWYPTWOQO
Hanna took his arm to steady him as she looked at him with concern. "Are you okay?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAvJAMMrFYo9
180Please respect copyright.PENANA3qC6yZqy6f
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAIchad9TE2D
180Please respect copyright.PENANAyNXsiZVryw
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA0A7YvWcTfm
180Please respect copyright.PENANAXHErpIifHW
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAYzRVzYdEgm
180Please respect copyright.PENANAEJLWLcyD8y
"Are you alright?" Hanna repeated.180Please respect copyright.PENANAUaHqZnRFA2
180Please respect copyright.PENANAqn9m7WTZ5s
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAC8UEAvlqEQ
180Please respect copyright.PENANALSa0H7G0Km
"Alright, do you want help?" Hanna asked.180Please respect copyright.PENANAMJbJDe6tBg
180Please respect copyright.PENANAuiqiylnfML
Ethan nodded reluctantly.180Please respect copyright.PENANAxXtR0J4noa
180Please respect copyright.PENANAY8lfVQhPCB
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAS8j0uO3IRn
180Please respect copyright.PENANAEe0daR9QF0
Hanna gripped him tighter as he stumbled over a bump in the dirt, practically invisible under the moonlight. "We can go slower," she offered.180Please respect copyright.PENANAvFCbaHYRFr
180Please respect copyright.PENANAdGyQfw3vMu
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAiCqPL024aU
180Please respect copyright.PENANAJzCPnELY77
"Oh. Right." Hanna blushed. She hadn't realized his condition was due to the heat. "Inside, then we can do whatever you want."180Please respect copyright.PENANAt7dQldlvcb
180Please respect copyright.PENANA4StYFwYvib
"Dangerous promise," Ethan mumbled faintly.180Please respect copyright.PENANA2pktpwg61I
180Please respect copyright.PENANA4MLHJeLmeY
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAlv5rKZjIh1
180Please respect copyright.PENANATj9NfYfCjG
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAHJ8ftFu3U7
180Please respect copyright.PENANAvmvpkwEzAi
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAkOPPcbj4DN
180Please respect copyright.PENANA0Vh8Xg52v9
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAdjdixl84bc
180Please respect copyright.PENANAKlg9tLvbR6
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAsciE1U54iL
180Please respect copyright.PENANAa9X0sepx28
"Should I wear a front-clasping bra next time so it's easier for you to take off?" Hanna joked.180Please respect copyright.PENANABPCp2kvHho
180Please respect copyright.PENANAZy42VlYsvr
Ethan made a sound that was suspiciously close to a growl. "I'm trying not to break it."180Please respect copyright.PENANACnbXi24kPI
180Please respect copyright.PENANAureOFv2tHj
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAVHH0Oqh2ys
180Please respect copyright.PENANANXBmcv2sGn
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAXEbCvDdy0W
180Please respect copyright.PENANA7K7r4PSiUF
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."180Please respect copyright.PENANAENDviCkIJR
180Please respect copyright.PENANAPLBgvAALkp
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAbONSjsUozG
180Please respect copyright.PENANAFa6pogAA6b
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAP0PmAXwgFX
180Please respect copyright.PENANAgsHYaxDsgt
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAlcwOXKxTYW
180Please respect copyright.PENANA1TRiso3HMB
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA0JQxRrkLyj
180Please respect copyright.PENANApLRI3QcIDD
"Yes," Ethan managed.180Please respect copyright.PENANAEfi9o5bIZy
180Please respect copyright.PENANA1Db9z2t0de
"Good," Hanna said softly. "Tell me if that changes."180Please respect copyright.PENANARs6I5UQXR3
180Please respect copyright.PENANA1itM1lanxI
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAfv7wnCmU9i
180Please respect copyright.PENANAmTJWIM96Hz
"Can I touch you?" Hanna asked softly.180Please respect copyright.PENANA6odSpPyfpm
180Please respect copyright.PENANArxBY9nE1ai
"Yeah. Of course." Ethan didn't shift his focus from her breasts for a moment.180Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7JGhk3HxB
180Please respect copyright.PENANAXY28bD1qOC
Hanna cocked her head to the side slightly. "You said earlier..."180Please respect copyright.PENANAZfXIgLCxHz
180Please respect copyright.PENANAOe1s5sOOYo
"It's just very arousing." Ethan's skin was nearly radiating warmth now. "It was frustrating back there."180Please respect copyright.PENANAzfyYBNCmv4
180Please respect copyright.PENANA5PrEApfDpj
Hanna ran a hand along his spine, noting the shiver that went through him. "So good now then?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAzJvCvZ8wXh
180Please respect copyright.PENANAaLyqPhI3BE
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA7NKQ7VKvEE
180Please respect copyright.PENANA5rB6Ze9TO8
"It's nothing," Hanna answered dismissively as she stretched out her neck and adjusted her hair.180Please respect copyright.PENANA6p0l8WJD7L
180Please respect copyright.PENANAxZMtc1w8hp
"Tell me," Ethan insisted.180Please respect copyright.PENANAPMKL038xEj
180Please respect copyright.PENANAvgSQjRVzgW
"Just the burns," Hanna answered reluctantly.180Please respect copyright.PENANAdzICYWgOKQ
180Please respect copyright.PENANAarspJbjlb1
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA8gRb9mKJdU
180Please respect copyright.PENANAivaEMtsdje
"I'll avoid them," Ethan spoke softly, "but you need to tell me if anything hurts."180Please respect copyright.PENANADNYd2WNCJw
180Please respect copyright.PENANAnhtdAXML88
Hanna nodded then kissed his chest.180Please respect copyright.PENANAYQxSoL8FM8
180Please respect copyright.PENANADUmGl3ynhm
"I'm serious," he emphasized, looking into her deep brown eyes.180Please respect copyright.PENANAnOEQafGoIC
180Please respect copyright.PENANAmiP6A88TFB
"I will," she promised.180Please respect copyright.PENANA87t7cKJAEo
180Please respect copyright.PENANAYbKb6X99OC
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAVWX1aBM1vy
180Please respect copyright.PENANAP8AsmzULqR
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANASGDUXkH29v
180Please respect copyright.PENANAFeMY5UjH1O
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAlx40XSsIWX
180Please respect copyright.PENANAtKj0GsvXLz
"I've got you," Ethan reassured her with a grin.180Please respect copyright.PENANAAXTSx03FnG
180Please respect copyright.PENANAaw992AtBTH
"Uh." Hanna did not look very convinced, she glanced down at his ankle uncertainly.180Please respect copyright.PENANAdFQ9BXEi1g
180Please respect copyright.PENANAwr4zNpOxgI
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAaC2U2p4tfY
180Please respect copyright.PENANAUR14hnJJl3
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAl4Q6ZZOS4Y
180Please respect copyright.PENANA8bkbB80JJc
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA65Ru7oSz4x
180Please respect copyright.PENANA4KnvK4VGV6
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAcTl1BVPrgv
180Please respect copyright.PENANAeQggDRJMV0
"I want you to enjoy yourself," Ethan told her.180Please respect copyright.PENANApUYLB5uN5T
180Please respect copyright.PENANAqhWqFIgFjb
"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."180Please respect copyright.PENANA6ez4wAapkE
180Please respect copyright.PENANArvmBssu9kZ
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAb8s8uEtZPd
180Please respect copyright.PENANAjzQCTmc9jF
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAtLHweh1WTB
180Please respect copyright.PENANAiX5iodr9Ia
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."180Please respect copyright.PENANASUYq8KLgnJ
180Please respect copyright.PENANAiIjsyqmURK
"No objections," Hanna panted.180Please respect copyright.PENANAajL8H67tHs
180Please respect copyright.PENANAoe2zkiB9jO
"Good." Ethan smiled broadly.180Please respect copyright.PENANA4fINcD1GtN
180Please respect copyright.PENANALjEkylqBlK
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANABbxPU8ZwNt
180Please respect copyright.PENANAdvQ4vpDOgj
"I'm ready," Hanna said, breathing heavy. She lifted herself above him.180Please respect copyright.PENANApjlISNJABl
180Please respect copyright.PENANAkvqEzEMKfb
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA3baJDgBF1t
180Please respect copyright.PENANA3sI4ChlCFd
She held as still as could, moaning softly at the new sensation.180Please respect copyright.PENANAhr9mG64KgQ
180Please respect copyright.PENANAWrLig9utMU
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAw2dzPsDAGW
180Please respect copyright.PENANA2Gd85i4OS8
"Please!" Hanna moaned.180Please respect copyright.PENANAm9yhPAv3qi
180Please respect copyright.PENANAU5eC4z0gnI
Ethan grinned. "Please what?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAnlbePHHEN9
180Please respect copyright.PENANAY2WQH47WXd
"Please make love to me," Hanna whispered, looking down at him with lust-filled eyes.180Please respect copyright.PENANAQ453Q1MSrE
180Please respect copyright.PENANAGUIiVYK9Dt
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANASbzPYNHSDk
180Please respect copyright.PENANA4SjVzEZZ8X
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAEpblja1ODa
180Please respect copyright.PENANAHTof08AYi1
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAZfBBeYw5Xq
180Please respect copyright.PENANAyM9TWVVP86
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAWjO028AZZa
180Please respect copyright.PENANAxNtAQCEsGH
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA8kafrhzPpV
180Please respect copyright.PENANAnGuZbRMGSH
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAVtXvt4dNKm
180Please respect copyright.PENANAG0PJGHKhrH
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAKWsLDcpIvL
180Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q7PgXW46u
"How is it?" Hanna asked breathlessly.180Please respect copyright.PENANAkxaOdSkXqK
180Please respect copyright.PENANAMNWph5JC40
"What do you mean?" Ethan asked, confused as he paused for a moment.180Please respect copyright.PENANA2h1YCfw29b
180Please respect copyright.PENANATh91q1Hvko
Hanna bit her lower lip. "Is it enough?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAnOkXv04bgC
180Please respect copyright.PENANA0PPb4ib3PR
Ethan almost laughed at her but only grinned. "You're perfect. All of you." He squeezed both sides of her waist.180Please respect copyright.PENANAkSEB8TdCwG
180Please respect copyright.PENANA7TLGCT1JBk
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAasS4KhaqC7
180Please respect copyright.PENANAEK8mu4XftZ
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAUGe7hLpyxo
180Please respect copyright.PENANAbo4YpLDj9B
"Let me take you there," Hanna said softly. She lowered her face to his and kissed him deeply.180Please respect copyright.PENANAGaUSq2wTj4
180Please respect copyright.PENANAad5CGIwq94
His irritation vanished in an instant.180Please respect copyright.PENANA3yhJyav3M7
180Please respect copyright.PENANAShUM40Bivc
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAQ24RWFWRzZ
180Please respect copyright.PENANADagfgM9eb5
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA616MICZTme
180Please respect copyright.PENANAoKAJ5D3ghz
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANALvgmPvxYWE
180Please respect copyright.PENANAoo94FA373I
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANArlXpa376ZT
180Please respect copyright.PENANAzDYW4MCma4
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAJN48ndxYlX
180Please respect copyright.PENANAOM24VAv7Yz
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAnHqUR812lX
180Please respect copyright.PENANAGe1Pbsjd1h
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAGoHfbxBEA5
180Please respect copyright.PENANAH3NZzFbWbY
"How are you doing?" Hanna asked softly, hoping he'd be able to talk.180Please respect copyright.PENANAqfRtDbU5fE
180Please respect copyright.PENANAvHUoPqOTs1
"Need a minute," Ethan mumbled, still panting.180Please respect copyright.PENANAy5CGUQKaRB
180Please respect copyright.PENANACppesF3dsO
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAHEIEuJcmtW
180Please respect copyright.PENANAvIsnWzws9X
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2bC8tgVAr
180Please respect copyright.PENANA6s1N87HuO8
She returned a few minutes later. "Can you walk?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5Jtvcr7PS
180Please respect copyright.PENANAWXZ2RNIoM0
"Yes, I think so." Ethan was only panting lightly now. "I don't feel as dizzy as last time."180Please respect copyright.PENANA4KVTKVmcJE
180Please respect copyright.PENANAnc6hkG4pv5
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANABKok30PCGY
180Please respect copyright.PENANA67JIbRERoi
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAHiJGzh6vCp
180Please respect copyright.PENANAhBrjyoVTu2
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAH2JA4Fn2OL
180Please respect copyright.PENANAmQSrDsMPVV
"How much blood did they take?" Hanna asked.180Please respect copyright.PENANAdxYpZxIl26
180Please respect copyright.PENANAxGIMNYEi5l
"I saw a bag," Ethan answered uncertainly.180Please respect copyright.PENANAO1RpDlUuBM
180Please respect copyright.PENANAA7m89WWJGl
"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."180Please respect copyright.PENANAqpH19pMR3a
180Please respect copyright.PENANABsMTkCFBRe
Ethan's face reddened with embarrassment. "I swear I don't usually faint in the middle." He started to drink.180Please respect copyright.PENANAsxNVCi8sdr
180Please respect copyright.PENANA30RWR4m9F2
"Or you could just pretend I was so good you passed out," Hanna teased him mercilessly.180Please respect copyright.PENANAiYb5Pst8sU
180Please respect copyright.PENANARbbnQNOaaK
Ethan let out a muffled coughed, trying his hardest not to laugh with a mouth full of water. He swallowed then coughed again.180Please respect copyright.PENANArV9N2o0Bso
180Please respect copyright.PENANArpdLOnkAtW
Hanna frowned slightly. "Alright, no more jokes."180Please respect copyright.PENANAXJpumKlTZD
180Please respect copyright.PENANAeAUP7sra8a
"I'm fine," Ethan replied before finishing off the bottle.180Please respect copyright.PENANAhXuZX9LNV0
180Please respect copyright.PENANArbINWxJaTr
Hanna grabbed the first aid kit and set it on the bed. "I want to check your ankle, okay?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAt4GplKVR9M
180Please respect copyright.PENANA9ofYXrgpPL
"Yeah." Ethan moved his leg up on to the bed.180Please respect copyright.PENANAXs6zzRkj1p
180Please respect copyright.PENANAaVEnujYLOU
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAvVjOnkDQIh
180Please respect copyright.PENANA6fQFtgNbZc
"I'll need to clean this," Hanna concluded.180Please respect copyright.PENANA7LSbIw2wsQ
180Please respect copyright.PENANAiWXLw8j5ZH
"I already did that," Ethan grumbled.180Please respect copyright.PENANAriggd2OR6g
180Please respect copyright.PENANAEMzI33Bqqp
"You didn't do a good enough job," Hanna responded. "I'll be right back." Ethan only nodded in response.180Please respect copyright.PENANAV5wFV76LNV
180Please respect copyright.PENANA04MlEKNCJb
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?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAW1UDVonUL2
180Please respect copyright.PENANAo3z0556LkK
"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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAZs2Nz0NlY9
180Please respect copyright.PENANAsYsOS58RuI
"Do you want more?" Hanna asked.180Please respect copyright.PENANABbwCAGwsUT
180Please respect copyright.PENANAfssBreaB1B
"No, just get it over with," Ethan said, readjusting his leg.180Please respect copyright.PENANAfZWF3ITw6x
180Please respect copyright.PENANAiToqEpLcxf
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANA0tfqHbbK8Y
180Please respect copyright.PENANAS5W1S5wSSs
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAfeTN98QGN1
180Please respect copyright.PENANAHloR4q7uel
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAy0C9nobSaq
180Please respect copyright.PENANA299O8M8AFe
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAdaZKA9BxAt
180Please respect copyright.PENANACC0os4z7uT
"My burns are gone," Hanna stated.180Please respect copyright.PENANAyFHjIs9kbk
180Please respect copyright.PENANAGfFZXInkLO
"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?"180Please respect copyright.PENANApmwlbEEO0H
180Please respect copyright.PENANAMCpri8RppL
Hanna eyed him curiously. "You tell me."180Please respect copyright.PENANA9KL3d2YumP
180Please respect copyright.PENANAl6bX3A6TRk
Ethan stared at the area in disbelief, brushing his fingers along her neck. Then he yawned. "Let me sleep on this."180Please respect copyright.PENANAqmNEoG5YBF
180Please respect copyright.PENANAIHO13TamB7
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."180Please respect copyright.PENANAfvNQizV0nD
180Please respect copyright.PENANAjGDOLJe8Jl
"I'm not doing anything. I'm exhausted for a whole bunch of other reasons," Ethan explained. "Like having my blood stolen," he emphasized.180Please respect copyright.PENANAVusaJvocTK
180Please respect copyright.PENANAijTG6cxtTr
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?"180Please respect copyright.PENANAX7PpRFMtFK
180Please respect copyright.PENANAcBbgN1dV6a
"I need to know you're okay," Ethan mumbled, half-asleep.180Please respect copyright.PENANAUMMgS1LEHH
180Please respect copyright.PENANAVmRT6yCe6B
Hanna smiled at his request. "I'm much better than okay."180Please respect copyright.PENANAr9UtWdhfce
180Please respect copyright.PENANAIpALsfHRad
She saw a slight smile grace his tired face.180Please respect copyright.PENANA8zFR6jdryU
180Please respect copyright.PENANA7j5alin1g3
"If you're going to leave, you should do it before I wake up," Ethan mumbled, quieter than before.180Please respect copyright.PENANAGLta0bC1xM
180Please respect copyright.PENANAblUkA8DeTV
Hanna had a puzzled look on her face. "I'm not going to leave."180Please respect copyright.PENANAuZ2IGX7Vgf
180Please respect copyright.PENANAwYLeTfVFK4
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.180Please respect copyright.PENANAK1tQC4QjOp
