章 42: The morning after

Was Keito being shy? This would be the first time for Noah to see the other like this. The young king had his whole body covered by the blanket with only his hands outside. Those claws twitched as they held them and they curled around his much smaller hands.

It was almost on the verge of being 'cute' but he had to remind himself that this was not really a good sign.

  "This is a side effect of your domain. Since your wolf took over before you could stabilise your bond and absorb its power, you are facing a side effect of partial shifting. The more time your wolf spends controlling your body, the more wolf you would become"  the other tensed, his hands grasping his own now.

The nails were almost biting into Noah's skin now and it did hurt. Small blood drops made themselves known and he knew this was a liability now. He needed those hands to wield the weapons and to perform magic.
