With his face facing Isabel's, all night Arthur breathed in the scent of her breath, which was indeed fragrant, giving him a comfortable sensation so that he actually fell into a deep sleep.
This was the most comfortable sleep for him because he was probably hugging the most important woman in his life, as if he had reached the end of his struggle.
However, what is comfortable is always fleeting.
Arthur wasn't quite satisfied yet but he had to open his eyes as he felt the sunlight hit his face.
He opened his eyes, finding that the room was already bright with sunlight.
Isabel was still lying in his arms, resting her forehead against his so that their gazes met as soon as their eyes opened.
It just so happened that Isabel also opened her eyes simultaneously with Arthur.
What happened last night still seemed to be very clear in her mind so there was no surprise from her when she saw him.
