Chapitre 761: Seren's Dilemma

The next morning, Seren stirred in her sleep, finding herself still wrapped in a pair of strong arms. A light smile painted her lips as she opened her eyes to see a pair of red eyes looking back at her. She realized it was Drayce; Erebus was gone.

She hadn't expected Erebus either way, but now, looking at Drayce, she felt a twinge of guilt. "Dray."

He ran his fingers through her hair. "Disappointed to see me?"

"No, I'm not. I'm not used to seeing him during the day," she said sincerely. She caressed his cheek. "Seeing you made me feel better instead."

Drayce didn't press further and kissed her lips softly. "Good morning."

She smiled at him, but the smile didn't quite reach her eyes. "Morning." The guilt she felt towards Drayce, as if she had done something wrong, kept her mind unsettled.

"Are you leaving for Griven again?" she asked.
