The morning sun filtered softly through the curtains as Luna stirred in Asher's arms. The tension from the night before had melted away into a warm, quiet calm. Asher's protective presence wrapped around her like a shield, strong, steady, and reassuring.
Downstairs, the city buzzed with its usual energy, but here, in this cocoon of shared moments, nothing else mattered. Luna knew the challenges ahead, the pressures, the rivalries, the unspoken threats, but with Asher by her side, she felt ready for anything.
Later that day, the Wolfe family gathered for a relaxed brunch. Ethan and Talia smiled warmly at their children, proud of how far they'd all come. Zane teased Luna about her late night at Asher's condo, earning a playful glare from his brother.
Meanwhile, Aria and Saige chatted animatedly about their upcoming projects, their laughter filling the room.
