Chapter 55: 1.55 Karma

When Persie woke up, he found himself nestled in Cole's warm embrace. The sensation of being enveloped in Cole's arms brought forth a mix of emotions within Persie.

It was a comforting and secure feeling, as if he was being shielded from the world. He could feel Cole's steady breaths against his neck, a soothing rhythm that lulled him back into a peaceful slumber.

In that moment, Persie didn't need to flip the switch to illuminate the room to confirm who was beside him.

He instinctively recognized Cole's presence, not by sight, but by the familiar scent that wafted around them, a unique fragrance that belonged solely to him.

As Persie drifted back to sleep, he checked the hour on Aurora. He had twenty minutes remaining before his alarm was due to shatter the tranquility of the room.

Adjusting his position, Persie sought a more comfortable spot within Cole's embrace, seeking solace and contentment in his touch.
