Ch 64: Relaxing bath...

'I…what did I do? How will I be able to look Kerin in the eye again?'

Meria brought his hand up to his face to hide it.

Moving was impossible for him, and his body ached every time he breathed.

Every breath forced another bout of slick out of Meria's body, and something… questionable was mixed with it.

But it all paled compared to the pair of arms pulling Meria back against a toned body.

After a whole year, Meria could see his best friend, but helping that 'best friend' (crush) with their rut and then being marked by them was not in Meria's plans.

"No one can find out about this. I will not be able to live this down, and I-I should first get myself cleaned up."

Meria's mind was all over the place. 

He had been ready to help Kerin, but now that the deed had been done and the result was clear, Meria no longer knew what he could do.

But bathing sounded like a good idea, so Meria decided to do that.
