I woke to an alarm, which was notable because the nightmares had stayed away for once. The first thing I registered was warmth, the deep and total kind that came from being thoroughly buried in something comfortable. Then the smell hit me and my senses filled with him before I had even properly opened my eyes.
I blinked into the room and found myself face to face with skin.
My eyes went wide as the memory of last night came back and I pulled my head back to find myself pressed firmly against a bare chest. Phoenix grunted beside me, his large arm shifting under my neck as I moved.
