《Heroes need saving too: A Daredevil fanfic》Chapter 8: Icy Affection (and some Mexican food remarks)
Advertisement
Matt was fast asleep in Claire's arms now. She could feel his chest rise and fall against her, and hear his breathing.
Really? I find his breathing attractive? what is wrong with me?
Claire didn't care anymore. This beautiful human was hers and she was proud of his...everything. Part of her couldn't sleep because he was there and moments like this rarely happen; she wanted to cherish every second. Another part was just plain worried about him.
Then, something happened. Matt started to shiver. It was as if it went from microscopic, to an earthquake in a matter of nano seconds. She could hear his teeth chattering, and his hold on her grew tighter. She turned on a lamp on the nightstand and sat up. Matt was still violently shaking.
"Claire, I'm...so cold." His arms were held tightly at his shoulders, and he was breathing fast.
She held him close to her.
"It's okay Matt, it's just chills."
He looked like he was about to cry.
"I'm so cold."
She squeezed him tight, quickly held his face, and planted a kiss on his forehead.
"I'm coming back okay? I'll be right back."
Matt was still violently shivering when she returned. In her hands was a large over sized gray hoodie, and a plush blanket. She quickly sat on the bed, and gently guided him to a sitting position.
"I need you to lift your arms sweetie."
Matt struggled, but eventually lifted his still-shaking arms. Claire slid the hoodie over him.
"Are you still cold?."
His shivers weren't as violent, but still present.
"Yeah, a little bit.", he said in a weak voice.
"Here, lay down."
Matt did so, he was holding his arms close to him. Claire took the blanket and wrapped it around him. She smiled.

"You know you look like a burrito."
Matt gave a small smile.
"Yeah, but I'm your burrito.", he said sleepily.
Claire snorted, God he was corny. My little dork.
Matt wore his trade marked smirk on his face. Claire leaned down and kissed his noes. His smile grew. You could see all of the lines in his face like a delicate painting.
"Wanna join me?"
"You have to ask?"
She slid into his blanket burrito, and pulled the covers over them.
"Are you okay? I don't want you to get hot."
Claire placed her hand on the side of his face, "I'll be fine." She replied.
Matt grinned and got into his usual position. At that point all Claire wanted to do was hold him close. And all Matt wanted was her to hold him.

The Core And The Wardens of Eternity
What is the Core, they asked me... It's the light that pushes the darkness away, a bastion of justice, a safe keeper of life. It grooms love and tolerance, embraces science, fights ignorance, sentences it to die a slow and tragic death. The Core... it's something that can't be destroyed for destroying it is to terminate the time and space itself. When the stuck-in-a-dark-age world of Zanria goes offline, the Core sends one of its experienced agents to find out what is going on and to try to reestablish a mysteriously severed connection. However, all his training and experience might come way short as the world sinks in war and chaos with different races and clans fighting for the Star of Bardan, the ward rumored to possess enough supernatural power to create and destroy entire worlds. *** I just changed the name of the series, from 'the Nexus' to 'the Core'. Somehow it just sounds more right to me. This is the first story, and it has a medieval fantasy setting. But, eventually, this is going to turn into Isekai series with elements of LitRPG. So, my future books might include worlds with advanced technologies that might be more in SciFi, including Steampunk, genre. The first book might start slow, but after a few chapters, it should all be properly set up, and by then you should get the feel of how it will all flow. Also, I plan to introduce different story threats that should spread out and criss-cross in the future. Hopefully, I will not complicate it too much, and that it will all read good. I am planning to continue to add chapters to the main storyline here, but I'm also starting a new story threat in the Core series called The Recordings of Raan. There is also a side story The Memoires of Eisen that's exclusive on Patreon for those who would like to support me.
