THE WOMAN IN THE MIRROR I

I felt slightly warmer and I knew it was thanks to Azar. I didn't know what potion or what sort of magic Ravenna used but it helped with the cold. Ivan seemed to notice how warm the room was because he stayed longer. I was expecting the temperature to drop as usual but the room still felt quite warm and I was starting to feel like my old self again. Well, not completely, but the good thing was that I wasn't cold anymore and I never had to worry about people getting sick because of me.

The best part about this was that I got to spend enough time with Ivan! During the days when I was cold, I hated the fact that I didn't get to spend enough time with Ivan. I hated it when we were apart, but now we were free to be right next to each other when the worst is over.

After a thorough love making in the afternoon, Ivan cuddled next to me. I smiled up at him lazily as he stroked my hair. "How I've missed you?"
