The soft morning light filtered through the room's heavy curtains, dyeing the sheets a pale gold. Strax awoke slowly, his senses returning to reality in pleasant waves - the scent of fresh fabric, the warmth of the room, and the feeling of bodies close together, intertwined and almost like a reflection of the calm of the moment.
He blinked, his eyes still heavy with the weight of sleep, until the sight before him became clear. There, lying with him, were two women, naked and wrapped in the same bed, their bodies incredibly close, sharing the warmth of the morning with him.
