Bab 49: Winter is coming early

The next morning, when Orion woke up, Lilith was curled up in his arms like a little kitten. 

A smile tugged at the corners of Orion's mouth as he recalled their passionate night together. He kissed Lilith gently before getting up and stepping out of the tent.

Outside, in the clearing, Lysinthia was practicing her swordsmanship with intense focus. When she saw Orion emerge, her face flushed bright red. 

The sounds of Orion and Lilith's lovemaking had been so loud the previous night that Lysinthia had been woken up. If she had already advanced to become a full Medusa, she might have joined them as well.

"Keep practicing!" Orion encouraged her with a grin before turning and heading toward the chieftain's tent.

"Orion, we thought you wouldn't be able to get up today!" 

Inside the chieftain's tent, the elders greeted Orion with teasing remarks.
