As the morning sun gently filtered through the curtains, casting a warm and golden glow across the room, Rin slowly stirred from her slumber. Her eyelids fluttered open, revealing a pair of sleepy yet contented eyes. The soft sheets and blankets embraced her form, cradling her in their warmth.
Beside her, Erix lay peacefully, his chest rising and falling with each steady breath. His dark hair was tousled from sleep, and a faint smile played at the corners of his lips. His arm was draped over Rin, their fingers entwined in a delicate embrace.
Rin shifted slightly, causing Erix to stir as well. His eyes opened, and he blinked before a smile spread across his face. "Good morning," he murmured in a husky voice, half sleepy.
