The morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room. I lay in bed, my mind replaying the events of the previous night. The warmth of Seraphina's presence beside me, the softness of her kiss, and the intimacy of our conversation had left me feeling content and hopeful.
Seraphina stirred beside me, her golden eyes fluttering open. She smiled, a gentle and genuine expression that made my heart skip a beat. "Good morning, Emily," she said softly.
"Good morning," I replied, my voice filled with warmth. "I thought we could spend the day together. There's so much I want to show you."
We dressed and made our way to the village. The streets were bustling with activity, demons going about their daily routines, merchants calling out their wares, and children playing. It was a vibrant scene, filled with life and energy.
