The morning after
Through her sleepy haze, Talia heard water.
It sounded like a downpour.
No matter what the weather was outside, Talia was in a cozy bed, surrounded by the scent of the forest and dark chocolate, and she didn't want to wake up. She pulled the comforter over her head and drifted back to sleep.
Talia's mind stirred, and her eyes fluttered open.
There was no sound of rain. It was sunny outside. Did she dream about the rain? Or was it raining during the night and then it cleared up? It didn't matter.
Talia turned lazily and her nose touched the pillow that was full of delicious smell which confirmed that the last night happened. She didn't imagine it.
Alpha Damon was there, and he asked her to continue using this room and he said that no one will disturb her anymore and she doesn't need to hide, and that she can train self-defense.
