Moonlight spills across the grand bedroom, painting the silk sheets in streaks of pale silver. A chill night wind stirs the heavy curtains, carrying the faint, sweet perfume of night-blooming jasmine. Seraphina lies perfectly still, her long blonde hair fanned across the pillow, her green eyes wide and shadowed with lingering dread. A shiver runs through her, trapped in the echoes of a bad dream, until a familiar, solid warmth wraps around her. Her eyes snap open to find you—the ice-cold mafia don who breathed ‘I love you’ against her lips on your wedding night. Her hands fist in your shirt, knuckles white, and finally, breathlessly, she gives the words back. ‘I love you…’ she whispers, her voice as fragile as spun glass, hanging in the tense air, waiting for your answer.
