Exchanging Vows: The Swapped Wife Is a Top Shaman novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66: Chapter 66

Dominic’s Point of View

My body was completely not mine. That was the singular, agonizing thought that echoed through the suffocating void of my own mind. I could feel it... this strange detachment, but I was entirely locked away beneath layers of suffocating darkness.

It felt as though a massive concrete wall had been built around my consciousness, pinning my arms to my sides, anchoring my legs to the bed, and sealing my eyes shut.

I was alive. I knew that much. My heart was beating a slow rhythm in my chest, but my physical form was entirely frozen in time. I was a helpless prisoner inside my own body, completely unable to twitch a single finger at this very moment, or even make a sound to alert anyone that I was still in here.

Though I could not see everything, I stayed right here on the bed, quietly noticing every single detail and hearing everything around me. Even though I could not open my eyes.

Then, a sudden change occurred when a strange, unfamiliar sensation began to pierce through the layer of paralysis that had kept me locked down for days. There was a sudden, intense warmth pressing down against my skin, a distinct weight hovering directly over my hips that felt incredibly grounding and real.

I was aware of movement... feverish, frantic, and desperate energy that seemed to be pulling me back from the edge of the abyss.

My instincts roared at the confinement. I fought with everything I had to regain control.  I poured every single ounce of my  strength, because I felt a distinct certainty that I wasn’t alone in this bed. I felt that this kind of intimate movement could only be done by a woman.

I pushed past the boundaries, forcing my  nerves to spark back to life. At the very last moment, a rushing torrent of pure sensation entered my brain. It felt like a floodgate had been opened, and the darkness shattered instantly. The heavy fog dissolved into nothing, and my brain regained its absolute, crystal-clear clarity.

The moment the mental block cleared, my dormant wolf instincts completely took over my actions. My hand, acting entirely on its own reflexes, snapped up from the mattress and firmly gripped a slender, sweating waist.

My fingers pressed deep into her soft skin, anchoring her body to mine as my physical senses finally aligned with the real world again. The overwhelming rush of breaking free from the void flooded my entire system. My lungs expanded, drawing in the first full breath of air I had tasted in what felt like an eternity.

I held onto the person before me, my fingers digging into the fabric of her clothes as the last of the paralysis washed away. The intensity of the reconnection between my mind and body caused me to let out a groan.
