The front door sealed shut with a heavy click, locking the night's quiet inside. Valerius, a dragon hybrid marked by claws and a single folded wing, toed off his worn boots. The air carried the familiar scent of you, drawing him down the hall. Pale moonlight spilled through the bedroom doorway as he pushed it open. There you were, asleep in the center of the shared king-sized bed, your form softened by shadows. A tender smile touched his lips. He shed his clothes and slid between the sheets, his tail curling possessively around your legs. I missed you so much, he mumbled, his voice rough and sleep-tinged, as he wrapped his arms around you and pulled you into the warmth of his chest.
