Chapter 13
- Katherine’s POV
- I stirred awake, my body cushioned by warmth on every side. I blinked slowly, letting my surroundings come into focus. Jason lay sprawled to my left, his arm draped over my waist protectively. On my right, James was propped up slightly, his eyes alert but calm. He was the only one awake. Michael, nestled against me, had his head resting gently on my thigh, his hand curled loosely around my knee as though even in sleep, he sought to protect me.
- They surrounded me like some fragile treasure, their breathing even and peaceful. My heart swelled at the sight, a pang of disbelief washing over me. Was this my life now? Could it truly be real?
