Looking down at her waist, she saw Evan's arm wrapped snugly around her waist, his hand resting on her with a gentle possessiveness that made her heart skip.
Turning her gaze to look at his face, she felt a wave of warmth and contentment. For once, the usual intensity that shadowed his face had softened, replaced by a rare serenity as he slept.
The early rays of sunlight highlighted his features, casting a warm glow over his strong jaw and relaxed expression. She wished she could hold on to this moment, preserving the peacefulness on his face. It was rare to see Evan looking calm and at ease.
Reaching out, she gently brushed a hand through his hair.
