Chapter 35
- When Drake awoke in the wee hours of the morning, he found Emily calmly sleeping next to him while clinging to him closely around the waist. As he tenderly dropped a kiss on her forehead, he broke into a mysterious grin for no apparent reason.
- He uttered the words in a hushed tone, "Good morning, stray..."
- Emily's hand was wrapped around Drake's waist, and he gently took it off without making a sound so that she wouldn't wake up. He rises from the bed, casts one final look in her direction, and then sneaks out of the room without making a sound.
