Summary
Without looking up from where he lounged in his bed, Belos stated, “It’s late. Did you have a bad dream?”
“No,” Hunter replied after a beat. He stepped into the room, allowing the red glow to soak him thoroughly. Each wall was lined by candles that flickered with a magic red flame.
“You’re far too old to come bother me after you’ve had a nightmare. I won’t coddle you forever, you know.”
“It wasn’t a bad dream,” Hunter insisted. He leaned back against the closed door. The wood was cool under his sweating palms. “It was more like... A really good one.”
That caught Belos’ attention. His eyes slid away from the pages to look at Hunter—not so quickly as to betray his cool nature, but with undeniable intrigue. Through the red lighting, his blue eyes seemed to shine magenta.
Hunter fought the twist in his stomach. He forced a smile; small, soft, yet mischievous. Perfectly practiced.
Belos’ thin lips quirked into a smirk.
“In that case... Tell me all about it.”
“Can I show you, instead?”

Revenge was not a word normally in Hunter’s vocabulary, especially not in relation to Belos, but if that was how Belos showed his love, then Hunter would give it back tenfold.
