We shared a sweet, lingering kiss, sealing our promises to each other. The future was uncertain, but as long as we had each other, I knew we could face anything. The morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the room. Seraphina stretched beside me, her eyes sparkling with contentment.
"I could get used to waking up like this," she murmured, her voice soft and filled with warmth.
"Me too," I replied, brushing a strand of hair from her face. "It feels like everything is finally falling into place."
We lingered in bed for a while, savoring the quiet moments before the day began. Eventually, we got up and dressed, ready to face the day ahead. As we made our way downstairs, the castle was already buzzing with activity. Workers were busy repairing the damage from the recent battle, and the air was filled with the sounds of hammering and cheerful chatter.
