"Urghh…"
My head throbbed as my consciousness slowly returned to me. My eyes, heavy and sore, struggled to adjust to the surroundings.
Darkness, an unfathomable void. But even in that pitch-black world, one thing was unmistakably clear – her presence.
"Karlia?" My voice was rough, weak.
My gaze rested on the crimson-skinned succubus whose lap currently served as my pillow. I watched the violet gleam in her eyes and found solace in her divine smile.
"Lewis… " Her voice trembled with emotion, barely above a whisper, as if speaking any louder might shatter the fragile moment.
Silhouetted in the darkness, while trying to acclimate to my surroundings, I could barely make out her figure. But, there was no mistaking that voice, the gentle warmth that had once been the very sun in my world.
"I've missed you so much." I admitted, my heart aching with the weight of the eternity we spent apart.
