Seraphina’s POV 1

The elevator ride down from Damien’s office felt surreal, like I was moving through a dream that might shatter at any moment. My hand

was clasped firmly in his, our fingers intertwined in a way that felt both completely natural and impossibly precious. Every few seconds, I

found myself stealing glances at his profile, searching for signs of the masked stranger from that magical night five years ago.

Now that I knew, I could see it everywhere. The strong line of his jaw, the way his hair caught the light, the confident set of his

shoulders. But most of all, it was his scent-that intoxicating blend of sandalwood and masculine power that had haunted my dreams for

years. How had I not recognized it immediately?

“Are you okay?” Damien asked softly as we stepped out into the parking garage, his thumb tracing gentle circles on the back of my hand.

I looked up at him, this man who was simultaneously a stranger and the most important person in my world, and felt tears threaten

again. “I don’t know,” I admitted honestly. “This is all so overwhelming. Five years, Damien. We missed five years.”

“But we have now,” he said, stopping beside his car to face me fully. His free hand came up to cup my cheek, and I leaned into his touch

instinctively. “We have now, and we have Adrian, and we have the rest of our lives to make up for lost time.”

“What are we going to tell Adrian?” I asked suddenly, the practical concerns finally catching up with the emotional whirlwind. “How do

we explain this to a five-year-old?”

Damien’s smile was soft and wondering. “We tell him the truth. That his daddy has been looking for him and his mommy for a very long

time, and now we’re finally together.”

When we pulled up in front of my building, I could see Adrian’s face pressed against the third-floor window, his breath fogging the glass

as he waited for me to come home. The moment he spotted us, he disappeared from view, and I knew he’d be racing down the stairs to

meet us.

Sure enough, the building’s front door burst open before we even reached it, and Adrian launched himself into my arms with the kind of

fierce enthusiasm that only children possessed.
