The morning light filtered softly through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the room. I felt the comfort of Raven's presence beside me, her breath steady and peaceful as she slept. The night before had been perfect—a rare moment where the world outside seemed to disappear, leaving just the two of us under the endless expanse of stars. I turned slightly to watch her, a sense of calm settling over me. In these quiet moments, it was easy to forget the battles we had fought and the challenges still ahead.
Raven stirred, her eyes fluttering open to meet mine. A sleepy smile curved her lips, and she reached out to brush a strand of hair from my face. "Good morning," she murmured, her voice still heavy with sleep.
