《A Dangerous Game》Chapter 22

Mila blinked her eyes open, the morning sun shining brightly through the window of Josef's bedroom.
"Good morning," Josef spoke against her ear, his arm slipping around her waist, pulling her back against his chest.
"Good morning," She smiled, tilting her head around to look at him.
"I trust you slept well?" He asked, kissing her temple.
"Mhm," She nodded, extending an arm over her head in a stretch as she rolled over to face him. "What time is it?" She asked lazily, pressing her forehead against his.
"Nearly ten," He replied, brushing a curl from her face, his hand lingering against her cheek.
"Ten o'clock?" She repeated, raising her eyebrows. She couldn't remember the last time she had gotten a full night's rest without the intrusion of the usual nightmares that plagued her dreams ... She hadn't woken up a single time during the night.
"Mhm," He nodded pulling her closer against him. "We missed breakfast, but I'm sure I could whip something up if you're hungry," He added with a grin.
"I'd love that," She smiled, giving him a peck on the lips.
Leaning into her kiss, Josef rolled onto his back, pulling her on top of him. She kissed him back, bracing her hands against his bare chest, her heartbeat quickening. Sitting up with her straddling his lap, he wrapped his arms around her, holding her firmly against him as his lips trailed down her neck.
"J-Josef," She stammered, fighting back the fog that was creeping into her mind. As badly as she wanted to stay in bed with him all day, she had her weekly Saturday meeting with the Lingards in just a few short hours. "Breakfast, remember?" She smirked, when he tilted his head up to look at her.

"Right," He chuckled, planting one more kiss underneath her ear before releasing her, allowing her to slide off his lap, back onto her side of the bed. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he grabbed his boxers off the floor, slipping them on as he stood to his feet. Realizing she, herself, also wasn't wearing any clothing, Mila pulled the blankets up to her neck, her cheeks flushing slightly. "Here," He said, picking up his button down from the floor and handing it to her. She nodded in thanks. Slipping her arms through the sleeves, she buttoned up the front before slipping out of bed.
"So what do you plan on whipping up?" She asked, following behind Josef as they walked down the hall.
"What would you like?" He asked, as they rounded the corner into the kitchen.
"Well coffee, for starters," She smirked, sitting down at the kitchen table.
"That can be arranged," He chuckled, opening the cupboard and pulling out the coffee canister. Preparing the kettle with the grounds and some water, he sat it on the stove top.
"As for food..." She trailed off, standing to her feet and walking to the refrigerator. Opening the door, she peered inside.
"I'm in charge of breakfast," Josef said against her ear, slipping an arm around her waist and pulling her away from the fridge. "All you have to do is sit right here," He began, leading her back to the kitchen table. "And tell me what you want."
"Pancakes," She replied, after she had thought it over for a moment. Accepting the cup of coffee he had poured for her, she watched as he poured himself one.
"You got it," He grinned.

Seeking Elysium
Elysium Ling is a returnee. She’s been to an alternate world, coerced into fighting their wars, and somehow returned alive. Now, 13 years later, she finds herself again taken to a foreign world – this time, by her own choice. Not the same world that she returned from, but a foreign world nonetheless. There, struggling in an unknown world, utterly alone, she has a chance encounter with a young lady with a lovely voice. An encounter which would spark a chain of events that would irrevocably shape the world around them. That young lady’s name is Rosalind. This is her story. Disclaimer/Trigger Warnings (Please Read!) THIS WORK WILL MOST LIKELY CONTAIN BOTH HOMOSEXUAL AND INCESTUOUS UNDERTONES. IT WILL ALSO HAVE OCCASIONAL DESCRIPTIONS OF GORE THAT CAN GET REASONABLY GRAPHIC. PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE UNDER THE LEGAL AGE IN YOUR COUNTRY TO CONSUME SUCH CONTENT AS MENTIONED ABOVE, OR IF YOU ARE TRIGGERED BY HOMOSEXUALITY, GORE OR INCEST. Notes on Relation to Lily Ex Machina While this story is intended to be a sequel to my first work, Lily Ex Machina (LxM), I will be writing it in a manner that does not require readers to have read LxM to understand it. While having read LxM will likely enhance your enjoyment of this work(I hope), I am intending for this story to be able to stand on its own legs. As such, certain worldbuilding elements that I have expanded upon in LxM will likely be repeated in Seeking Elysium(SEly). As such, for newcomers, it should not be an issue to follow this story without prior knowledge of LxM. On the other hand, for my returning readers, I do beg your forgiveness for forcing you to read through stuff you already know. I’ll do my best to try and make it interesting, but no guarantees of success, I’m afraid. On the other hand, if you’re a newcomer to this series and enjoy SEly, I do hope you’ll take the time to read Lily Ex Machina as well, if only to get more information of the backstories of some characters. Update Schedule I will only post completed volumes on RRL; if you would like to follow the story while it is ongoing, you may do so at my website. I update twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays. Supporters on my Patreon get access to chapters a day earlier.
