Chapter 70: All Set [1]
As the night relinquished its hold on the world, a subtle shift in the moon's color signaled the arrival of morning. The darkness began to recede, replaced by a faint glow that filled the room. The soft light cascaded through the window, casting gentle rays upon the slumbering figure of Luke, coaxing him awake from his peaceful respite.
With eyes slowly fluttering open, he found himself staring at the expanse of the ceiling above, momentarily disoriented by the transition from dream to reality. The room was adorned in a soft, ethereal glow, as if the morning itself had painted its essence upon the walls.
With a languid stretch, he sat up, feeling the coolness of the sheets against his bare chest. His gaze instinctively shifted towards the empty space beside him, where Isabelle had once been nestled in sleep.
