308 Morning After (Jayden)

I blink, adjusting to the light as I wake, feeling Winona's body curled up against mine, her head resting on my chest. The quiet of the morning wraps around us.

It's one of those rare moments of peace. The kids are still asleep, no wonder. It was a night ending in wedding cake and ice cream. But for the first time in what feels like forever, there's no rush, no tension. Just us.

Winona stirs, her fingers brushing lazily over my skin. "Morning, Mr. Brennan," she murmurs, her voice heavy with sleep

I grin, tightening my arm around her. "Morning. Mrs. Brennan. How're you feeling?"

She lets out a soft laugh, lifting her head slightly to meet my eyes. "Like I got hit by a truck, in the best way

possible."

Last night flashes through my mind, the night we shared. Passion, relief, and love all rolled into one. I can't help but smile. "You looked incredible yesterday. But you look even better now."

Winona rolls her eyes playfully. "Yeah I bet my bed hair and panda eyes are killer."

"Never more beautiful," I say, my grin widening as I run my hand down her back.

We lie there in silence for a while, both of us soaking in the quiet before the chaos of our new life hits. I know this peace won't last forever, especially with all that's on the horizon.

The thought of Nexus Global and what's waiting for me across the ocean creeps into my mind, uninvited, I push it away, wanting to enjoy this moment for as long as I can, but my phone buzzes on the nightstand, breaking the spell.
