Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 107

“Sienna, Cedric murmured, staring at her in surprise, almost mesmerized as he softly repeated her name.

“Huh?” Sienna’s simile hadn’t faded yet.

“You’ve got something in your hair, Cedric said, raising his hand gently brush something off the side of her hair.

“What is it?” she asked.
