Chapter 59 Morning Revelations

• Aurora stirred awake, the soft morning light streaming through the curtains making her squint. She felt warm, almost too warm, and when she shifted, she realized why. Damian was lying next to her, his dark eyes watching her closely.
• Her breath hitched. “You’re awake?” she mumbled, her voice still thick with sleep.
• He didn’t say anything right away. He just kept staring, his lips curling into a soft smile that she’d never seen before. It wasn’t mocking or cold. It was... real.
