The Cursed Luna~
Katherine stirred awake as the warmth of the morning sun kissed her skin. She blinked slowly, suddenly aware she wasn't alone.
Kieran was propped up on one elbow, his gaze fixed intently on her, his eyes softened the second he realized she had woken up. "Good morning," she said, her voice still heavy with sleep.
Kieran's lips curled into a smile, and he leaned closer to kiss her forehead. "Good morning, Love," he replied softly. "Did you sleep well?"
Katherine averted her gaze, her cheeks flushed under his steady gaze. She nodded. "Yes, I did. It looks like you've been awake for a while now. You didn't sleep well?" she asked, looking at him.
"I slept better than I have in a while. I just wake up earlier than most people. Besides, it gave me the opportunity to look at you."
