Galen let out a soft grumble, nuzzling against her shoulder blade and squeezing her closer.

Bell giggled.

“It’s time to wake up, handsome. It’s morning,” Bell called out gently. Patting Galen’s hand as she spoke.

He groaned and grumbled and then once more pulled her closer to him. She laughed as the big puppy insisted on staying in bed.
