Aurora woke up feeling light-headed.

The events of the previous night were a haze. Her body, soft and pliable, had surrendered to him completely. Now, every part of her ached.

"Awake?" A low, husky voice sounded in her ear.

Aurora blinked. "Julian, aren't you going to work?" She wasn't sure what time it was,

"It's Sunday. I'm staying home to take care of you. Are you feeling unwell?" Julian asked gently.

Aurora nodded. "Yes, my body feels sore, and my head hurts."

"I was happy yesterday... Oh no! I forgot to send Ashy off!" Aurora suddenly remembered.

"Don't worry. After breakfast, I took him to the airport myself. He knows how you are and would never blame you." Julian's hands moved to massage her temples.
