Chapter 272 Overwhelming Morning

Claire woke up to the sound of Adam’s phone ringing early in the morning. Her body felt tired, a sweet ache lingering as a reminder of their passionate lovemaking the night before. She smiled to herself, realizing she was lying in Adam’s bed, her head resting on his bare chest. He was still sound asleep, looking so calm and relaxed—something she rarely saw.

Adam was notoriously private and fiercely protective of his personal boundaries.
