LIAM

I wake up slowly, the morning light filtering through the curtains, casting a soft glow over the room.

The bed beside me is warm, and I stretch lazily, feeling the lingering traces of last night’s passion. My mind flickers back to last night. Emma and I had fled the club together, leaving Damon and June with hurried texts, and then, somehow, we ended up here with the thrill of the chase, the urgency of escaping, and the rush of adrenaline.

It led to a long night of passion between us and here we are, with her nestled against me, our night of whirlwind touches and orgasm transforming into a bright morning.

I prop myself up on my elbows, resting my head on my crossed arms, looking at her. Emma’s hair spills over the pillow, a wild tangle of dark waves that frame her peaceful face. Her features are soft, unguarded, and as she sleeps, she looks impossibly beautiful, serene in a way that makes my chest ache with something I can’t quite name.

It’s strange, because I’ve never been one to relish waking up with a woman beside me. This isn't a scene I was accustomed to. Waking up with a woman after a night of passion usually left me feeling a hollowness in my chest, a sense of trouble brewing. I’ve always associated the morning after with a sense of dread, awkward silence, and the unspoken questions.

But with Emma, it’s different. Everything feels different.

She stirs, her eyelashes fluttering open. She stretches languidly, the sheet slipping down a fraction, revealing a glimpse of creamy skin and a hint of the delicious breasts I explored last night. Then our eyes meet. She laughs, a shy, sweet sound, and covers her face with her hands, the blush creeping up her cheeks. I can’t help but smile, the sight of her so vulnerable and real, making my heart swell.

“Morning,” I mumble softly, my voice rough with sleep.

She peeks at me through her fingers, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “Were you really staring at me?”

“For the past few minutes.”

“Oh, God no! I don’t look my best in the morning.”

“Lies.” I chuckle, leaning in to press a soft kiss to her forehead. “You’re beautiful, Emma. In fact, I enjoyed watching you sleep.”

She blushes deeper, pushing herself up on one elbow. “Stop, you’re making me blush.”

I chuckle, brushing a strand of hair away from her face. “I like seeing you like this, all relaxed and happy. It’s nice.”

She smiles, the kind that makes her eyes crinkle at the corners. “I’m glad we ended up here last night. It was…perfect.”

We lie there for a moment, the silence comfortable, until I remember the awkwardness that awaits us outside this room. “I should probably apologize,” I start breaking the silence. “For ghosting you. I was being an idiot. I didn’t mean to hurt you.”

Emma turns to face me, her expression softening. “I accept your apology, Liam. I thought that much was clear from last night.”

I cock my head to the side, letting my lips split in a grin.
