When Love Breaks by Jack

Chapter 480

The next morning dawned bright and early.

Half–asleep, I turned over, and my hand brushed against something unexpected. No, not something–someone.

I jolted awake to find myself wrapped in someone’s arms, and the owner of those arms was gazing at me with such tenderness, as if trying to pour all his gentleness into the look. “Awake?” he asked, his voice slightly hoarse, raspy from sleep.

Memories of last night slowly pieced together, and I felt a flush of embarrassment. Yet, I boldly wrapped my arms around him, snuggling closer into his embrace with a defiant whimper, “Nope, still wanna sleep.”

That sleep was the deepest slumber I had had in ages. Completely peaceful, without a single

dream.

Gregory raised an eyebrow, his tone lazy. “A sleepyhead, huh?”

“I’m all yours,” I replied, nuzzling against his chest. The crisp scent of mint somehow felt revitalizing.

He chuckled softly, “Calling me a sleepy pig?”

“Not at all.” I looked up to place a kiss on his chiseled jawline. “I meant, I belong to you.”

I was totally, completely his.
