| awoke to warmth: a warm arm around my waist, a warm body against my back, golden rays of sun warming my
cheek, heat pooling in my belly.
It didn’t take long for consciousness to return, and with it cthe memory of last night. My skin still felt flushed
wherever Noah had touched me, my core pleasantly empty as if a great weight had been removed from my body
when I'd peaked in Noah's arms in the moonlight.
When I rolled over, | found Noah still fast asleep beside me, his dark hair falling into his eyes. | tried to rouse him
with a few warm kisses to his neck and shoulder, but he hardly stirred beyond letting out a low groan and
nuzzling closer against me.

have needed the rest. I, however, was wide awake, so | carefully extricated myself from his arms and slipped out

Lily was already in the nursery when | made my way in. “Oh! You're awake,” she said, bouncing Melody in her
arms. “| figured you might want to rest, so | took care of Melody’s breakfast.”
Letting out a small sigh of relief, | kissed my sister's temple, followed by Melody’s button nose. “Thank you, Lily.
Breakfast?”
She shrugged and followedout of the nursery with Melody in her arms. “Noah's still sleeping, | take it?”
| couldn’t help but blush a bit. “I asshis staying over last night has been the talk of the town already.”
My sister chuckled. “Let’s just say that Mom and Dad couldn't stop mentioning how glad they were that you're
back together,” she said as we made our way into the kitchen.
| was glad, too. But the mention of our parents just remindedof last night's... uncomfortable
discussion.
Noticing my apprehension, Lily placed a hand on my arm and said gently, “You know Dad means well. He'd never
stand in the way of your happiness. He's just... from a different era, that’s all.”
| pursed my lips and grabbed the milk and eggs out of the fridge. “Today isn’t so different from his day. Noah and
| have a lot of work to do if we're going to be able to be together and both be Alphas.”
Lily nodded. “Trust me, | know. But you know I'm here for you, right? Whatever you need.”
“Thanks, Lil. That means a lot.”
My sister shota wan smile before nodding her head toward the ingredients I'd gathered while we were

A little while later, Lily and | were quietly pushing the tea cart into my bedroom, laden with cheesy mushroom
omelets, crispy bacon, steaming cups of coffee, and a vibrant array of fruit. Noah was still passed out on the bed,
his mouth comically hanging open with his arms sprawled out to either side.

Noah's eyes snapped open almost immediately.
“What the... Oh!” He sat up, shirtless, and gathered Melody into his arms. “Good morning to you, too...”
At the sight of my mate's bare torso, Lily flushed and hurried out of the room without a word.
“Sleeping well, were you?” | asked once we were alone.
Noah's ears turned a little red as he glanced at the clock, seeing that it was past ten. “I'll admit it,” he said a bit
sheepishly. “Last night was the first good night of sleep I've gotten in a while.”
