Chapter 235

Mia nestled comfortably in James's embrace as the hot air balloon floated gently through the sky. Her back rested against his chest, and his head lay softly on her shoulder, his arms securely wrapped around her waist. The warmth of his touch and the serene beauty of the scene filled her with a sense of utter peace.
She sighed contentedly, soaking in the surreal moment. The sky stretched endlessly around them, painted in hues of gold and soft blues as sunlight danced upon the drifting clouds. It was breathtaking—so enchanting that words seemed inadequate to capture its magic.
"Are you happy?" James's gentle voice broke through her thoughts. He intertwined their fingers and brushed a tender kiss across her knuckles.
