Chapter 312 A Tense Dinner Date

• I fell asleep in Nicholas arms. It was the warmest, most comfortable I had felt in I couldn’t remember how long. With the sun creeping in through the blinds and the sound of the ocean beating on the sand just outside the window, I was lulled to sleep like a happy baby in a cradle.
• When I blinked awake, later, the sun was much lower in the sky and Nicholas was gone. I wasn’t surprised by his absence, but I did immediately miss him. The bed was so much colder with him, and without the sun.
• I didn’t want to sleep anymore, alone. It helped that I was fully rested too.
