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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA2mymaX2Yuv
95Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1MwCHdCmH
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZEiNRLwIV
95Please respect copyright.PENANAZFvE1K11Nc
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAvitcrzifzv
95Please respect copyright.PENANAQeKWOnnxLP
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAdFnmN6yfDD
95Please respect copyright.PENANAgP5fUx68xC
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAD1PAfEy5ek
95Please respect copyright.PENANALmvKZITuTy
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAkAGhTlvgxH
95Please respect copyright.PENANAOOTZugUmFQ
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANATzgMYvkApI
95Please respect copyright.PENANAvdmarw8muf
"We're here," Hanna said softly. "This is the address you gave me."95Please respect copyright.PENANAINjqmCttab
95Please respect copyright.PENANA45JiZY4l7P
He blinked at her, then took in the surroundings, still looking a bit out of it. "Good," he mumbled.95Please respect copyright.PENANAhAaZY0l6Sa
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9PN6inJ6g5
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAKg39BWS3v7
95Please respect copyright.PENANATPUpyVVsFw
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAuBaYsw50sN
95Please respect copyright.PENANADMnOxc1aqE
Hanna took his arm to steady him as she looked at him with concern. "Are you okay?"95Please respect copyright.PENANAMQ8PScg2oL
95Please respect copyright.PENANA35Zpt0iQJS
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA5XGpYPSbiq
95Please respect copyright.PENANAluGUHuePjR
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAjtRHnUFFU0
95Please respect copyright.PENANAVZT6WUvHqj
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAVJOW0Ri2Yg
95Please respect copyright.PENANAzdOZxpUxU0
"Are you alright?" Hanna repeated.95Please respect copyright.PENANAAOBxgkNFiL
95Please respect copyright.PENANATte7W2ciPa
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAE0N3dIyd8Y
95Please respect copyright.PENANAMhC7ZDydJp
"Alright, do you want help?" Hanna asked.95Please respect copyright.PENANAKzyFTVNBGw
95Please respect copyright.PENANAHh2YFrP0lB
Ethan nodded reluctantly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAiZcsnNh5U2
95Please respect copyright.PENANAkkaSgqEg2F
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAso29MY7U9o
95Please respect copyright.PENANAxgLzVye475
Hanna gripped him tighter as he stumbled over a bump in the dirt, practically invisible under the moonlight. "We can go slower," she offered.95Please respect copyright.PENANAW8GmfjqCjh
95Please respect copyright.PENANAOENH2ODq2J
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAtDH7DO0AR3
95Please respect copyright.PENANAjEXFKm4qiY
"Oh. Right." Hanna blushed. She hadn't realized his condition was due to the heat. "Inside, then we can do whatever you want."95Please respect copyright.PENANADiMneFdY6P
95Please respect copyright.PENANAGcz8IAvQpr
"Dangerous promise," Ethan mumbled faintly.95Please respect copyright.PENANALwwJSwfbpZ
95Please respect copyright.PENANAR2zhku4qet
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAxK0jakORtN
95Please respect copyright.PENANAUHSHGbNoeB
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAV1y8IwFE0n
95Please respect copyright.PENANA0iAjbWIZ7T
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA8wL6nfNcJq
95Please respect copyright.PENANAMFYzFDUwyV
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAc5eApzGPmn
95Please respect copyright.PENANAP555zPCcvc
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAsk31dibXao
95Please respect copyright.PENANAtJyPvw8yHZ
"Should I wear a front-clasping bra next time so it's easier for you to take off?" Hanna joked.95Please respect copyright.PENANAed1j20N2BT
95Please respect copyright.PENANAvW658oCVMz
Ethan made a sound that was suspiciously close to a growl. "I'm trying not to break it."95Please respect copyright.PENANA9fUlZoMXeN
95Please respect copyright.PENANAGxgVeioBR1
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA4neLgKD2Ko
95Please respect copyright.PENANAOgZ7DV2wBV
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAVWRGk7mECo
95Please respect copyright.PENANAjQUKgkFzPc
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."95Please respect copyright.PENANAo6YgjaMmWQ
95Please respect copyright.PENANA2jT4mrS1Ca
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAcsqw2ozNzA
95Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZWIQQuH2M
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAOpOfSzupbi
95Please respect copyright.PENANAvtAg8b1Oqh
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANApABx3XVsOG
95Please respect copyright.PENANA6F5jMzaBT4
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAxIGr620y6H
95Please respect copyright.PENANAdmCmvsk5Ol
"Yes," Ethan managed.95Please respect copyright.PENANAFUWHBueyag
95Please respect copyright.PENANA8yMXuiMWYM
"Good," Hanna said softly. "Tell me if that changes."95Please respect copyright.PENANA3aXOVV6EM0
95Please respect copyright.PENANAzVXADe5nQ4
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAzfSWc3Mdqn
95Please respect copyright.PENANA42OKU3TfIg
"Can I touch you?" Hanna asked softly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAb0oJYh92bm
95Please respect copyright.PENANASdjc75nnzX
"Yeah. Of course." Ethan didn't shift his focus from her breasts for a moment.95Please respect copyright.PENANAPhWDDBwoWo
95Please respect copyright.PENANAilO1BmxJWU
Hanna cocked her head to the side slightly. "You said earlier..."95Please respect copyright.PENANARilvvbQi7f
95Please respect copyright.PENANAnbUb78ZINu
"It's just very arousing." Ethan's skin was nearly radiating warmth now. "It was frustrating back there."95Please respect copyright.PENANArUciMeDrX3
95Please respect copyright.PENANAvtO5mD2Bw7
Hanna ran a hand along his spine, noting the shiver that went through him. "So good now then?"95Please respect copyright.PENANAqB9u4evT3y
95Please respect copyright.PENANA4F04yu4px0
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAnGk5GMCUfD
95Please respect copyright.PENANA3C5741v6LK
"It's nothing," Hanna answered dismissively as she stretched out her neck and adjusted her hair.95Please respect copyright.PENANALJmrEiGw7M
95Please respect copyright.PENANAY2TExb0y5k
"Tell me," Ethan insisted.95Please respect copyright.PENANAhXci1qGiMq
95Please respect copyright.PENANAk1hLkCNE8E
"Just the burns," Hanna answered reluctantly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAhEn0JHYabg
95Please respect copyright.PENANAvgRtTrfMEq
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAxuPUWqB2q8
95Please respect copyright.PENANAWCZ5ATpnjS
"I'll avoid them," Ethan spoke softly, "but you need to tell me if anything hurts."95Please respect copyright.PENANANW9JrLUXaa
95Please respect copyright.PENANAtBx2OyH366
Hanna nodded then kissed his chest.95Please respect copyright.PENANAud1RdGNk7U
95Please respect copyright.PENANAuKvo7sGpnc
"I'm serious," he emphasized, looking into her deep brown eyes.95Please respect copyright.PENANAtUQxzqIcay
95Please respect copyright.PENANAJACg9ueWkC
"I will," she promised.95Please respect copyright.PENANAcyjYkLtl5F
95Please respect copyright.PENANAXO3toEKunW
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAyqpW4B2bL5
95Please respect copyright.PENANAfYSgXEGmrt
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAPfcGY2RAls
95Please respect copyright.PENANAmWZn0pGEZl
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA7EKIMT1jNk
95Please respect copyright.PENANARFXaXPNaZm
"I've got you," Ethan reassured her with a grin.95Please respect copyright.PENANAN8wzuCF86q
95Please respect copyright.PENANACAXmMESbSe
"Uh." Hanna did not look very convinced, she glanced down at his ankle uncertainly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAgoPswBPs9m
95Please respect copyright.PENANACSlI9If1kw
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANACPM2OTZLP3
95Please respect copyright.PENANAY3QYUApz3C
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA9hB4ZFTTc9
95Please respect copyright.PENANArVJO0bXw3l
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA1bNolZTY9B
95Please respect copyright.PENANA7BJMIx3oEA
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAM0MgQmUCnb
95Please respect copyright.PENANA75QVlv4eIu
"I want you to enjoy yourself," Ethan told her.95Please respect copyright.PENANAAZUVukugBh
95Please respect copyright.PENANApLinQE6IUn
"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."95Please respect copyright.PENANAeD1fsBtnFm
95Please respect copyright.PENANAynKmpmW94G
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAo5skEmK6x7
95Please respect copyright.PENANA6MXafMPgSP
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAL4Rthw8ShY
95Please respect copyright.PENANARQuG5bp4uv
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."95Please respect copyright.PENANABftkQpQGCL
95Please respect copyright.PENANA26P5SbSCGX
"No objections," Hanna panted.95Please respect copyright.PENANArYOzVoOzlV
95Please respect copyright.PENANAcrSU76bFF5
"Good." Ethan smiled broadly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAtKfUmxjGgc
95Please respect copyright.PENANAftS27fSpBa
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAHBTxl7BGft
95Please respect copyright.PENANAmf6q27L9xK
"I'm ready," Hanna said, breathing heavy. She lifted herself above him.95Please respect copyright.PENANA0V1f8AtdN6
95Please respect copyright.PENANAW9ruocsnCP
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA1WJlexkagi
95Please respect copyright.PENANA82al2m0qVR
She held as still as could, moaning softly at the new sensation.95Please respect copyright.PENANAWy7GywQNgw
95Please respect copyright.PENANAXykKryZXUm
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAKPGo3bIhPi
95Please respect copyright.PENANAjWWKfE0A04
"Please!" Hanna moaned.95Please respect copyright.PENANAC6Ii3kcQa1
95Please respect copyright.PENANAM4JUqcx9Pt
Ethan grinned. "Please what?"95Please respect copyright.PENANArgNvAfgE1t
95Please respect copyright.PENANAU0rs0eiXtr
"Please make love to me," Hanna whispered, looking down at him with lust-filled eyes.95Please respect copyright.PENANARHRlxF9s7Z
95Please respect copyright.PENANAzaTLBCD9rP
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAUwdai5fuZT
95Please respect copyright.PENANAbpPkk66M8v
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAsxlMagj9n1
95Please respect copyright.PENANAaLuVAHiB0N
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAuHUMYD2eNP
95Please respect copyright.PENANAxlq6e7IhF5
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAMBMsxnKQHx
95Please respect copyright.PENANA0D7KYh9jVo
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA5dGAru5O4P
95Please respect copyright.PENANAoYhD1ElmlU
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAeHTjbv2Gl5
95Please respect copyright.PENANAYXA4jXBZ1H
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAcXSvHTAHF0
95Please respect copyright.PENANABFZVaknTQY
"How is it?" Hanna asked breathlessly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAvNaPqa3EE6
95Please respect copyright.PENANAIzvQqxA6Qv
"What do you mean?" Ethan asked, confused as he paused for a moment.95Please respect copyright.PENANAE0EcYF4QKe
95Please respect copyright.PENANALwrricFlAe
Hanna bit her lower lip. "Is it enough?"95Please respect copyright.PENANAvLXf7XO2qq
95Please respect copyright.PENANAEjQHs1aqQL
Ethan almost laughed at her but only grinned. "You're perfect. All of you." He squeezed both sides of her waist.95Please respect copyright.PENANA0fSHpe7mSv
95Please respect copyright.PENANAXCnKwsRH9v
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAXwCe37wK6G
95Please respect copyright.PENANA3dCCHpKZGp
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAgMUtFepN9u
95Please respect copyright.PENANAjUB6H2UN7r
"Let me take you there," Hanna said softly. She lowered her face to his and kissed him deeply.95Please respect copyright.PENANA9RmPoGJh54
95Please respect copyright.PENANAYbtQuVqXBk
His irritation vanished in an instant.95Please respect copyright.PENANAwtaDjZEvZh
95Please respect copyright.PENANALGrvxBzTnq
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAdFAQdfOjEd
95Please respect copyright.PENANAxB9eUgecGv
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA98So8fdmMo
95Please respect copyright.PENANAuzjnVbcq0V
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAnMERmhN3on
95Please respect copyright.PENANAYCyDfS4yAT
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAWgRiZOPyg9
95Please respect copyright.PENANAAdznnnfmYh
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAwGMRxizqZL
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9N5M1LCBk2
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAWWggRASY0i
95Please respect copyright.PENANAojFG6eLkM1
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA5YVlAB0jGH
95Please respect copyright.PENANAXopihXB0AQ
"How are you doing?" Hanna asked softly, hoping he'd be able to talk.95Please respect copyright.PENANABDXyMkYlWb
95Please respect copyright.PENANA7l2YA10KDA
"Need a minute," Ethan mumbled, still panting.95Please respect copyright.PENANASGG9qNVD61
95Please respect copyright.PENANAKDpUukJfzB
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAChaffCrif1
95Please respect copyright.PENANAFSOyOaLaZK
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAhrhW2ZxyPW
95Please respect copyright.PENANAkZqUILpaTM
She returned a few minutes later. "Can you walk?"95Please respect copyright.PENANA8cqwg0wYiF
95Please respect copyright.PENANA1l0rnfTS2a
"Yes, I think so." Ethan was only panting lightly now. "I don't feel as dizzy as last time."95Please respect copyright.PENANA5p245ZC3uf
95Please respect copyright.PENANABnejowNDUV
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA5K6rLi3H5r

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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAwfz7f79gq6
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9QeTpDpfm4
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAPAbBMI4V1S
95Please respect copyright.PENANAssxXEEwAS9
"How much blood did they take?" Hanna asked.95Please respect copyright.PENANARpqR2xjVjm
95Please respect copyright.PENANAniB0QPxjKP
"I saw a bag," Ethan answered uncertainly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAyBn0HCNR34
95Please respect copyright.PENANAvznD5Ahq0x
"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."95Please respect copyright.PENANAChLqAr9qK1
95Please respect copyright.PENANALLfAx7nYzc
Ethan's face reddened with embarrassment. "I swear I don't usually faint in the middle." He started to drink.95Please respect copyright.PENANAnHEn8Pw0oE
95Please respect copyright.PENANAyjBMTPd26y
"Or you could just pretend I was so good you passed out," Hanna teased him mercilessly.95Please respect copyright.PENANAMFRjoKsgZx
95Please respect copyright.PENANANtJSQLmIUh
Ethan let out a muffled coughed, trying his hardest not to laugh with a mouth full of water. He swallowed then coughed again.95Please respect copyright.PENANAic2QebLYrk
95Please respect copyright.PENANA3Ulx8z7EsR
Hanna frowned slightly. "Alright, no more jokes."95Please respect copyright.PENANAll2uqgcC2C
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9AXHSvXLFG
"I'm fine," Ethan replied before finishing off the bottle.95Please respect copyright.PENANAgQRqY2O9cn
95Please respect copyright.PENANAclPnRohsI2
Hanna grabbed the first aid kit and set it on the bed. "I want to check your ankle, okay?"95Please respect copyright.PENANACkS3AHl9Go
95Please respect copyright.PENANAkHz9ox4Yv4
"Yeah." Ethan moved his leg up on to the bed.95Please respect copyright.PENANARzYCKThYLV
95Please respect copyright.PENANAOAiJ0gSrk7
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAqoiEOJ4j0a
95Please respect copyright.PENANAoMH8vAxNv1
"I'll need to clean this," Hanna concluded.95Please respect copyright.PENANAIv5cikbCwp
95Please respect copyright.PENANAXYEhmLKQ7A
"I already did that," Ethan grumbled.95Please respect copyright.PENANAX38LGCFs0T
95Please respect copyright.PENANA7YitpL0HOu
"You didn't do a good enough job," Hanna responded. "I'll be right back." Ethan only nodded in response.95Please respect copyright.PENANAFsfJ6WH8Av
95Please respect copyright.PENANAzXchHsvf5t
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?"95Please respect copyright.PENANAVqApdztOs6
95Please respect copyright.PENANAIVnAl683yB
"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.95Please respect copyright.PENANANecJDqGHqq
95Please respect copyright.PENANAfOwZCwieJO
"Do you want more?" Hanna asked.95Please respect copyright.PENANAaBnQ4HSIEE
95Please respect copyright.PENANAsJsV5iMx6F
"No, just get it over with," Ethan said, readjusting his leg.95Please respect copyright.PENANAChGE8npTtv
95Please respect copyright.PENANAFepZ8jGOza
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAvS1jZhrbU3
95Please respect copyright.PENANAI6mHcCNw1U
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAIpKhXQ0q0R
95Please respect copyright.PENANAxvsiyXAf5R
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAn92OulLRDA
95Please respect copyright.PENANA9c18wzdhJC
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANAYla3Q9R0KR
95Please respect copyright.PENANAeuQ6jNQTj5
"My burns are gone," Hanna stated.95Please respect copyright.PENANApwU03maTv2
95Please respect copyright.PENANAN69Zr89LW8
"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?"95Please respect copyright.PENANADhxdKR20ia
95Please respect copyright.PENANAu92HZOnVap
Hanna eyed him curiously. "You tell me."95Please respect copyright.PENANAEvWO4USLZY
95Please respect copyright.PENANAgN95zy4Bwx
Ethan stared at the area in disbelief, brushing his fingers along her neck. Then he yawned. "Let me sleep on this."95Please respect copyright.PENANA74dKNEIx8b
95Please respect copyright.PENANAgPV8aYMa0m
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."95Please respect copyright.PENANAPv07FyvRaA
95Please respect copyright.PENANAHIRH665ykW
"I'm not doing anything. I'm exhausted for a whole bunch of other reasons," Ethan explained. "Like having my blood stolen," he emphasized.95Please respect copyright.PENANArl6I2PQECY
95Please respect copyright.PENANA2E7YqrdQK1
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?"95Please respect copyright.PENANAAVSuurs4we
95Please respect copyright.PENANA8vagQksDvy
"I need to know you're okay," Ethan mumbled, half-asleep.95Please respect copyright.PENANA4SSBpD7dmo
95Please respect copyright.PENANArEno9KqVQv
Hanna smiled at his request. "I'm much better than okay."95Please respect copyright.PENANAybNP3Q2E64
95Please respect copyright.PENANAgAy2N3Fmkg
She saw a slight smile grace his tired face.95Please respect copyright.PENANAwWnaZojWAb
95Please respect copyright.PENANAS1cmtWwPPM
"If you're going to leave, you should do it before I wake up," Ethan mumbled, quieter than before.95Please respect copyright.PENANA323hpYZZR7
95Please respect copyright.PENANA5YfMIYGVbd
Hanna had a puzzled look on her face. "I'm not going to leave."95Please respect copyright.PENANAphXR7v4I0H
95Please respect copyright.PENANAF7VvQoloqa
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.95Please respect copyright.PENANA6l0d9IArdl
