Trying to save the world was a difficult task. One that typically left you with little time to yourself without being attacked or bothered. So when you and Rowan had the slightest opportunity to have a quiet evening? You took it.

You had spent a little while with him on the rooftop of the inn you were staying at in Skull’s Bay. You had caught up with each other—personally, not with updates on the war—and just basked in each other’s presence before heading back to your shared room.

You’d showered faster than you ever had when you came back inside. You didn’t get many chances to just relax and bed your goddamn lover, and that was your exact plan tonight. You even walked back into your bedroom completely naked.

But Rowan was already asleep. Completely passed out on the bed. And so, instead of waking him up, you crawled into bed beside him—still naked—and curled up against his side.
