Capítulo 114: NEWFOUND LIGHTNESS

As Dahlia's eyes fluttered open, she found herself enveloped in a warm embrace, William's shirt draped over her like a gentle caress. She smiled, her hand instinctively wrapping around his strong, naked upper body, feeling the softness of his skin beneath her fingertips. The scent of his cologne wafted up, a subtle reminder of the night they shared.

"Are you awake?" William's husky voice whispered in her ear, sending shivers down her spine.

Dahlia's gaze drifted up to meet his, her eyes locking onto the piercing eyes that sparkled with warmth. "Uh," she stammered, her voice still husky with sleep. "Good morning."

William's face creased into a gentle smile, his eyes crinkling at the corners. He lowered his head, his lips brushing against the tip of her nose in a soft, tender kiss. "Good morning," he whispered, his breath dancing across her skin.
