Chapter 63 Tangled Thoughts

• Chapter 63
• Miles POV
• The sun hung low, golden and warm, casting a soft, ethereal glow over the garden. Everything around me felt suspended in time, as though the world had slowed just for this moment. The scent of fresh grass mingled with the faint sweetness of wildflowers, filling the air with a calm that settled deep in my chest. I was lying on a checkered picnic blanket, my hands tucked behind my head, the grass brushing lightly against my bare feet. And across from me sat Mimilia, the one constant in a world that always felt too fast, too loud.
