“Kayd?” I apprehensively looked up at him, uncertain of what he was going to try to communicate to me now that he’d made it clear I wasn’t allowed to leave. However, all he did was nuzzle the spot he’d been holding in his teeth and then sat up. “Chomm,” he rumbled, the sound ending like a deep, buzzing hum. He got up, gloriously naked, uncaring, and climbed down over the edge of his nook. “Kayd? Chomm!” he commanded. “Yeah, yeah, hold your horses…” I muttered and swung my legs over the side. He reached up and helped me down, then gently pushed me first through the tunnel into the main room.
