At the crack of dawn, as the first sunlight shone into the bedroom of Dustmeadow Mansion, Cassandra was woken up by the alarm. She stretched but felt warm skin, which startled her and made her fling her eyes open.

What came into her view was Orlando’s handsome countenance. He was still asleep with his eyes closed while she was leaning against his chest as his arm circled her waist.

to redden by the second as if the air had become thinner.

Orlando’s smile deepened, and his voice also turned exceptionally husky. “What? Are you going to throw me away now that you’re done using me?”
