As I walked back to my dorm, I couldn't shake off the feeling of excitement and confusion that lingered inside me. My mind was a jumble of thoughts, replaying the events of the evening like a scene from a movie I couldn't stop watching.
I couldn't believe how Eryndor had caught me when I stumbled, and how his touch had sent shivers down my spine. It was as if my body had reacted on its own, without my permission. The way he had looked at me, his eyes locking onto mine with an intensity that made my heart skip a beat, was unforgettable.
A flutter in my chest accompanied the memory of him brushing a strand of hair behind my ear, his fingers grazing my skin. That gentle, intimate gesture had sent my pulse racing, leaving me breathless.
