Chương 23: A Morning After.

The morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a soft, golden light across the room.

Evelina slowly opened her eyes and stretched, only to feel an unexpected warmth in the space beside her.

Her eyes widened in panic as she jolted upright, glancing at the empty space next to her. It's empty, but it looks like someone was here!

She quickly scanned the room and froze. This wasn't her room. A rush of alarm surged through her. She was about to scream but clamped a hand over her mouth. How did I get here? Whose room is this?

She tried to recall the events of the previous night, but her mind was a blank.

In a hurry, she threw off the covers and sprang out of bed, thinking to herself, I need to leave. Now.

She dashed toward the door, heart pounding in her chest. As she yanked it open, she was met with the surprised face of Leone, who looked like he was about to do the same.

Evelina's heart raced as she stumbled back, her mind spinning.
