[Samael Ashwood's POV]
Yawn~
Blink~ Blink~
I think I am still asleep because the moment I opened my eyes, They met with beautiful orange eyes staring back at me with a mix of curiosity and affection.
"Good morning, Sionna," I said softly, my voice still heavy with sleep. Her presence, so close and warm, was a comforting reminder of what I was fighting for.
"Good morning, Samael," she replied with a sleepy smile, her voice a soft whisper. "Did you sleep well?"
"I did," I assured her, reaching out to gently pat her head. "How about you?"
"Better than I have in a long time," she admitted, her smile growing a little wider. "Thank you for letting me stay here."
"You're always welcome, Sionna," I said sincerely. "You can stay here as long as you need to."
Her smile widened at my words, a flicker of relief passing over her features. "Thank you, Samael. It means a lot to me."
