Chapter 69: The Prodigious Nim, Part Thirty-Eight

Melisa stirred.

Her eyelids fluttered open as the morning sunlight filtered through the curtains of Isabella's bedroom.

[Holy shit...] She took a moment to breathe. [Can I even walk?] 

Beside her, Isabella's warm, naked body was pressed close, her soft curves fitting perfectly against Melisa's own.

She blinked slowly, her mind still hazy with the lingering remnants of last night's activities. 

The kitsune girl's fluffy tail was draped across Melisa's waist, her hands possessively resting over Melisa's body. 

For a long moment, Melisa simply lay there. 

[... To be honest, that was better than I could have imagined it would be.] 

She wanted nothing more than to stay like this forever, but a... minor feeling in the back of her mind told her that they had likely slept far later than intended.

As if sensing Melisa waking up, Isabella began to stir too, her ears twitching.
