The moment that Prisana stirred awake from her sleep, she woke up to Dane holding her fast asleep like before. It frightened her that she was becoming so used to waking up in the arms of her new husband. She gazed at the face of her husband, letting the reality sink in that she went and signed a marriage certificate to more beautiful lies.
The beautiful lie before her seemed like the beautiful truth. She lightly trailed her finger over his scar, admiring how it actually fit his ruggedly handsome looks.
Prisana pried out from underneath the beast's arms and tried to get out of bed but ended up stumbling and crashing onto the ground. Her whole body ached, all because of the beast that held her so passionately to the point of ruin.
