Automatically he ran a hand over the space beside him. It was cold and empty and he realized why he was feeling so leaden. The previous night’s miserable business played over in his head as he hauled himself up into a half-sitting position against the headboard.
Ariel was lying fully clothed on the truckle bed, the thin blanket pulled up to her chin, her gloved hands crossed over her breast. Her eyes were closed, the lashes dark half-moons against her pale cheeks.
Simon watched her sleep. Even
...asleep her jaw and mouth had an obstinate set. This was what he had won through his mission of peace.
He threw off the covers and struggled to his feet. His body groaned, his leg shrieked as it took his weight. It had been a while since his mornings had been quite so bad, but then, he’d missed Ariel’s ministrations last night.
He stood over the truckle bed, trying to decide if she was really asleep. If not, it was a decent imitation. He dressed slowly, ran a hand over his unshaven chin, and decided it would have to wait.
