Bab 305: Where Is The New Queen Of Witches

Some time in the middle of the night, Ember, whose consciousness continued to flicker in between restlessness and sleep, seemingly found herself in the middle of the forest, the soothing scent of the wood and the rich masculine fragrance of the soil causing her lips to curve into a smile. As she felt herself drifting off to deeper sleep, giving into the allure of a sweet dream, a pair of strong arms both familiar and warm wrapped around her body… 

It was still dark outside when she woke up. Still half asleep, her arm blindly reached out and felt the warmth still lingering on the space by her side dissipating. This caused her to jolt awake, but when she checked her bed, no one was next to her. 

'Why do I feel like he was here?' She could not help but pout as she buried her face in her pillow. 'Ugh. Am I missing him so badly that I dreamed of him in my sleep? Looks like it. Otherwise, why would he come here, only to leave before dawn?'
