Author's note: this is from Seraphina's point of view

I was pleased to have the key to Duke's apartment.
I wondered what his reaction will be when he sees me. Will he rub his eyes again, how he did when I showed up unexpectedly in his office?
I entered the apartment and took a deep breath of pine trees and the ocean, and I could feel my lips stretching into a smile. Duke.
The only thing better than this welcome would be if Duke wraps me in his solid embrace.
Unfortunately, there was no eye-rubbing or hugs because it was the middle of the night, and my super-hot boyfriend was sleeping.
I was in the room for no more than three seconds when his nose scrunched a few times and he inhaled deeply.
"Serina…", he breathed longingly and turned to the other side.
Isn't he adorable?
Without a second thought, I removed my clothes and tiptoed to his closet to fetch one of his t-shirts.
