Hearing a slight rustle from somewhere in the room you turn around, to find that there's actually someone lying in the couch just behind your back. For a moment you're about to panic, as you've got no idea how to react if you were actually to be discovered by a grown up human on your nightly raid to their house!
Upon closer inspection you realize that this one is rather fast asleep however, and now snoring softly into the armseat of the leathery sofa. And as you calm down again from the initial surprise you can barely keep yourself from laughing, for getting so scared by this sweet and harmless looking figure that's curled up in front of you.
As she's wearing a sort of wide and fluffy red morning robe as makeshift bedclothes, that's also several numbers too large and has thick white fur linings along the neck and sleeves, it's no wonder really that you didn't notice her as you entered the room. Most likely you'd mistaken her for a pile of quilts or something, and could even have sat right down on top of her if she hadn't rolled over so that her face is now looking out towards the room.
It's a very pretty little face at that, you think to yourself, and can't keep from smiling as you take a step closer for a better look. Though you've never taken too much interest in the human physique you do know to appreciate beauty when you see it, and this one is definitively worthy of a second glance.
You can't tell the colour of her eyes while she's still asleep, but can guess that they're pretty close to the chestnut of her wavy brown hair. Her smooth skin has a natural tan to it, giving her a rather exotic appearance compared to the closest neighbours of your northern homelands. Rounded cheeks and a pretty little nose made you think her merely a child at first, but something about her long, dark eyelashes and what little you can see of her figure beneath the makeshift bedcovers makes you reconsider your first impressions.
While you watch she suddenly start moving again, this time yawning and stretching before uneasilly rolling over on her back, making you freeze in place and pray that she's not about to open her eyes and find you standing there. She doesn't however, and once her breathing returns to normal and you are certain she is fast asleep again you decide it's well about time for you to leave.
Quietly putting down the empty glass on the table you turn back for a last look at her lovely face before you go, but find your eyes involuntary drawn instead to the gap in the front of her fluffy robes. Widened further now by her movements it reveals just a little bit more than could pass as decent of her naked skin, showing off a surprisingly generous amount of cleavage that would suggest her age even more at odds with her childish visage.
For some reason you find yourself drawn to this beautiful young woman, more than even the finest brandy has ever managed, and making something stir inside of you that you haven't felt for a very long time. Feelings that you thought to have long since put behind you, and certainly not all of them becoming of such a gentle and beloved figure as yourself... But then again, who are you now to live up to such ancient ideals...? |
