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

Waking up in Duke's embrace and greeted by the morning sun that was peeking through the sheer curtains, stirred many happy memories.
It seemed like forever since we experienced this intimacy of holding each other after a night filled with carnal pleasures.
I missed him immensely.
Entangling my body with Duke's was much more than just a physical contact that led to ecstasy. His every word, sigh, and groan stirred something deep inside me and made me love him more. And then there was the way he looked at me, like he can see my soul directly with no secret left hidden, and he was accepting me completely, flaws and all.
Last night was fantastic and it came with a sense of belonging that can't be replicated. Everything was perfect, except for a small voice in my head that reminded me we need to make this work with Duke's wolf.
