CHAPTER 100 Enchanted Embrace

  They stumbled toward the bedroom, shedding layers as they went. The city lights poured through the windows, illuminating their tangled forms. For a moment, the world outside ceased to exist.

  Edmund's hands were gentle yet firm as he guided Angela to the edge of the bed. He paused, his breath ragged, and looked deeply into her eyes. "Angela, are you sure about this?" he asked, his voice laced with a mix of desire and concern.

  Angela nodded, her eyes never leaving his. "I've never been more sure of anything in my life," she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. "I need you, Edmund. I need to know that this is real."

  Edmund's gaze softened, and he brushed a stray lock of hair from her face. Angela's heart swelled with a mix of relief and longing. She reached up and cupped his face, her thumbs tracing the lines of his jaw. Edmund leaned into her touch, his eyes closing briefly as if savoring the sensation. Angela felt like she was finally home.
