Davian's Point Of View
The morning light seeped through the curtains, casting a faint golden glow across the room. The air was thick with the scent of expensive perfume and the remnants of last night's indulgence.
I stirred, blinking the sleep from my eyes, only to be met with the sight of Sophia's bare shoulder, her golden hair fanned across the silk sheets. Her breathing was steady, peaceful, completely unaware that my mind was already racing ahead.
And then it hit me.
Shit.
I had a meeting today.
Not just any meeting. A meeting with Nikolai D'Angelo.
My body tensed instantly. I turned my head, catching sight of the clock on the nightstand.
8:47 AM.
Damn it.
I sat up abruptly, the sheets pooling around my waist as I swung my legs over the edge of the bed. My mind was already working at full speed. This meeting was important, crucial, even. Nikolai D'Angelo wasn't someone you kept waiting.
I stood up, barely sparing Sophia a glance as I strode towards the bathroom.
