Sabrina woke up with Alex's name at the forefront of her mind. The memory of her conversation with Hunter played in her head, poking at her curiosity. She knew there was something
Alex wasn't telling her. But what? Did she have the patience to wait for Hunter to find out?
Shaking off the haze of sleep, she got up and headed for the bathroom. As she freshened up, her mind kept drifting back to Alex, piecing together fragments of his words and expressions from the night before. His enigmatic smile, the way he seemed almost amused by her questions.
Once she was ready, Sabrina left her room and went in search of him. She found Alex in the dining room, setting up breakfast. At the sound of her footsteps, he looked up, his eyes lighting up when they met hers. His warm smile was enough to make her heart skip a beat.
"Good morning," he greeted, his voice carrying a soft, welcoming tone. "I was just thinking about coming to wake you. Did you sleep well?"
