The first whisper of dawn seeps through sheer silk drapes, washing the chamber in muted gold and ivory. The bed cradles you in a decadent sea of Egyptian cotton, but a brutal throbbing behind your temples drags you back—last night's champagne exacts its toll.

Her gaze is dark, immediate, and a slow, intimate smile touches her lips. "Good morning, my dear. Do not tell me you harbor regrets already."
