"Hm…" I mumbled, turning slightly as I tried to fight the drowsiness still clinging to me. The light poked stubbornly through my eyelids, forcing me to blink awake.
"Good morning, little birdie…"
The low voice brushed against my ear, followed by a warm breath that tickled the back of my neck. I froze instantly. My eyes snapped open, and I turned so fast that the blanket nearly tangled around me.
And there he was. That damn handsome dragon.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, somehow managing to sound calm even though my heart had just attempted an Olympic jump out of my chest. I didn't remember him being here when I fell asleep. After our talk about that colorful glowing unicorn thing, he'd said he needed to finish something in his study. So how?
Wait.
Did he just… sleep here beside me the whole night?
