Madeline’s POV
I snuggled closer to something warm in my bed.
What was that? Was I hugging a pillow? I sometimes did that. It smelt really nice. Like cocoa with cinnamon. It was my favorite drink.
A small smile spread across my face and I took a deep breath of the wonderful scent. I was still half asleep and nothing made sense, but I didn’t care. I was warm. I was comfortable. I was enjoying the scent of my favorite drink surrounding me. I didn’t want to wake up.
But then I felt someone’s arms tighten around me.
I was awake in a second.
I opened my eyes and gasped.
Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
I wasn’t snuggling a pillow. I was snuggling…
Oh, Goddess.
I tried to move away from him, but he only tightened his hold on me.
“Shh, Maddie,” he mumbled quietly
