Chapter 33

• The collapse of a log was enough to wake me up. I stirred, wincing as my muscles protested against the floor beneath me, a heavy body weighing me down. My fingers gripped the heavy blankets covering me. Confused, at first, I thought I was dreaming. Why would anyone be cuddling me? This couldn't be real; I couldn't be lying in a bra and panties on the floor with Aiden beside me, who was naked under covers. What even happened last night?
• To say my whole body was exhausted after suffering through the blizzard didn't even describe what I was truly feeling, not to mention that my throat parched as sandpaper and lips dry. Looking around, I realised that there was a small bottle of water placed by my side. 
• Without thinking much into it, I desperately reached for it, a sigh escaping my throat. My omega was very weak and had difficulty holding the bottle up to my lips, so I strained my muscles. I drank as much water from the container as I could and didn't care when the cold liquid ran down my jaw and neck and soaked the front of my bra. It was so good to fill my empty stomach, even if it was only water.
