Morning had arrived, but the bedroom remained wrapped in quiet stillness. The soft rhythm of breathing filled the space, undisturbed by the world outside.
Delphinia stirred first, her eyelashes fluttering as she woke up from a deep sleep. She blinked a few times, adjusting to the light, before shifting slightly in bed. Her gaze fell on the two figures beside her, and the sight made her heart melt.
Evander and Ashton lay side by side, their faces eerily similar. The same sharp jawline, the same dark lashes resting against their cheeks, and the same peaceful expression in sleep. It was almost uncanny how alike they looked. If she didn't already know their history, she would have easily believed that no DNA test was ever needed—Ashton was his father's son through and through.
