LEENA'S POV 💍

The morning light trickled through the curtains, casting a golden glow across the room.

I felt the warmth of the sun on my face, the soft rays nudging me awake, but I resisted. I squeezed my eyes shut, unwilling to leave the comfort of his embrace just yet.

His arms were wrapped around me, holding me close against his chest, and it was all I needed—my safe haven. I nestled deeper, hiding my face against his chest, feeling the steady rhythm of his heartbeat.

I felt his hand gently stroking my hair, a soothing gesture that sent a wave of warmth through me. He was awake.

His touch was lazy and affectionate, the kind of touch that spoke of quiet mornings and endless comfort. I whispered,

"Good morning," my voice still heavy with sleep.

"Very good Morning, Elysium"

He replied in a husky tone, his voice deep and rough, like he hadn’t spoken yet today.
It was the kind of sound that made me feel like I could listen to him forever.

I slowly tilted my head up to meet his gaze, and he was already looking down at me, his eyes soft and filled with something tender. He smiled, a lazy, beautiful smile that made my heart flutter. Leaning down, he pressed a gentle kiss on my lips, just a soft peck that lingered in its sweetness.

“How was your sleep?” he asked, his thumb brushing against my cheek, his touch feather-light.

I sighed contently, my fingers tracing patterns on his chest. “I can’t put it into words. Perfect... I haven’t slept so peacefully before.”

He chuckled softly, a low rumble in his chest that vibrated against me.

“That’s good. You deserve peaceful sleep,” he murmured, his fingers still playing with my hair.

We stayed like that, tangled in each other, exchanging soft conversations about nothing and everything.

"You look so fresh" he spoke gently

"You look breathtaking in morning as well. How come? What's your secret?"

"If i tell you then how will it be a secret, Elysium?"

"So you won't tell me the secret of your beauty? That's unfair"

"Why do you wanna know the secret to be beautiful when you already are the most beautiful creation, yourself?" He tucked my hairstrands behind my ear and drinks me in with his gaze..

I never felt this shy with him, why is it effecting me these way? I was always the fire to burn, But now I'm feeling like a shy wife who can't resist her husband's charm..

"What happened Elysium? You're so red" his knuckles brushed on my cheeks when I hugged him gently burrying my face on his chest...I heard him chuckling, He's enjoying this for sure..

For a while we stayed like that..

We talked about the dreams we had, the silly things that made us laugh, and teased each other over small things. Our bickering adds a different charm to our feelings..

He mocked me for hogging the blanket, and I rolled my eyes, accusing him of snoring—a claim he vehemently denied.

“Me? Snore? Never,” he said, his voice dripping with playful indignation.

“Sure, Mr. I’m-perfect,” I teased, poking his side lightly. “You were snoring like a bear last night.”

He grinned, pulling me closer, his breath tickling my ear. “I don’t snore, Elysium..."
