Chapter 128 A Child's Laughter

• Moana
• That night, I fell asleep next to Edrick with a full heart. I couldn’t help but wonder if all of this meant that our relationship might go further than simply being a fake relationship, but I didn’t want to spend too much time getting my hopes up in case things didn’t work out as planned. All I knew was that my wolf was happy to be near him, and I was also happy to be near him. Edrick seemed happier than usual as well, and it made me think that maybe things would at least be just a little different after our mini vacation at the mountain estate.
• The next morning, I awoke to the feeling of Edrick’s warm arms around me. I was turned toward him with my face buried comfortingly in his chest, so close I could feel his heartbeat. We had fallen asleep the night before with a respectable distance between us as we didn’t want to get too close, but it seemed that we simply couldn’t avoid getting close to one another in our sleep. However, I couldn’t deny that feeling him this close to me gave me a sense of safety and comfort.
