Her breath was even, her chest was slowly rising and she clung next to him against his chest. She was completely carefree like she was the safest next to him.
It left a bitter taste in his mouth. He was one of the greatest dangers next to her, yet she leaned in like he was her safe haven when he was far from that.
His greed won't let him. He was selfishly going to ignore the warnings. All he had to do was make sure she was safe and protect this safe haven
Cedric lay next to her, watching her sleep, just immersing himself in the view. His hand reached out for her face. Even in her sleep Abrielle recognised his touch and leaned into his palm snuggling next to him
Her cute, subtle actions made his heart feel a little light. He almost forgot everything that troubled him
Peace
Cedric hadn't felt this at ease for ages. Deep down, he didn't react; this was the calm before the storm. He was aware of that.
