Breath
When he hears her muffled cries fade into quiet, Leoben goes back out into the living room. Kara's slumbering body is all serpentine-twisted amidst the pale blue blanket. The strands of her hair look winter-white against her pale skin.
Leoben moves silently to kneel beside her. His fingers hover briefly over her slightly parted lips, her breath ghosting against his skin. His fingers trace the curve of her jaw, pause above the rise and fall of her chest.
The heat of her skin nearly burns him, taunting him with warmth. Leoben stays there for a long time, watching her sleep.
