In a rare moment, the man fell asleep before the woman, who took the opportunity to enjoy the tranquility of the night. As she lay beside him, she listened to the soothing sound of his breathing while experiencing a gentle shift in her body temperature. In this intimate setting, she affectionately stroked his hair and expressed her profound feelings for him, feeling almost foolish for her deep affection.

Despite her sleepy state, the woman focused on calming her mind, finding peace in the quietness around them. Meanwhile, the man, Roarke, smiled in the darkness, aware of the love and vulnerability shared between them, cherishing this significant moment where he could let go and simply enjoy her presence.
