Chapter 9 Divine Binding

• Elijah
• The soft morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow on the peaceful scene in Elijah’s bedroom. As Elijah stirred, he felt the weight of contentment settling in his chest. Slowly opening his eyes, he found Amirah nestled in his arms, her serene expression a testament to the joy of the night before.
• A grin tugged at Elijah's lips as he recalled the unexpected turn of events. He had planned a night of sweet intimacy, but Amirah, in her own charming way, had taken the lead. His thoughts drifted to the new mark on his neck, a visible symbol of their connection, and a surge of happiness flooded through him. He was a marked man, and the reality brought him immeasurable joy.
