The moment you opened your eyes a sudden wave of heat washed over your body. You felt warm and muscular arms wrapped around your smaller body, practically clinging onto you from behind.

Marius was seemingly still sleeping soundly, no wonder why he was so exhausted, yesterday he had an emergency conference meeting really late. You could feel his nose nuzzling into your hair as he mumbled something in his sleep. Being embraced by your lover so tightly brought you a sense of security and comfort, causing the corners of your mouth to curve upwards.

Another soft and relaxing sound echoed through your bedroom — the purring of Berry laying among the sheets near the two of you.
