Chapter 135: A Drastic Change

As the gentle embrace of a brief slumber gradually ebbed away, Rosalie stirred and blinked her eyes open, finding herself met by the proximity of Damien's chest, looming just inches from her gaze. Her initial surprise widened her eyes momentarily; dawn was an unusual time for such proximity. However, a surprising sense of tranquility soon enveloped her, coaxing her back into a state of relaxation. She surrendered once more to the comforting embrace of waking up nestled in the warmth of another's arms.

She shifted her gaze upward, hoping to steal a glimpse of Damien's sleeping face, but to her slight disappointment, he was already wide awake. His glistening golden eyes were fixed intently upon his wife, a subtle yet affectionate smile gently gracing his sensual lips.
