At eight o'clock in the morning, Xyla Quest opened her eyes in a dazed state.

Despite falling asleep, she wasn't in a deep slumber. Her subconscious mind was active, dreaming multiple times all the way through.

He softly cradled her face. "I couldn't sleep. I was worried that something might suddenly happen to you or our children."
