Seraphine's eyes flickered as consciousness returned to her partially.
Her lashes trembled, and a soft breath escaped her lips as she felt her body resting against something warm.
The warmth was strangely familiar and comforting.
As her blurry vision slowly cleared, a familiar face registered before her.
"Will..!!"
"Shhh," William whispered close to her ear in a low, gentle voice, "Just sleep. You're in a dream."
His breath brushed against her skin, sending a faint shiver through her.
The sedatives had not worn off completely, leaving her senses hazy and dreamlike, as though the world around her was wrapped in soft mist.
William held her carefully in his arms as he sat against the thick bark of an orange maple tree.
The tree stood tall within the Domain of Infinity. It was specially planted by him here for Sera.
Its leaves were drifting down lazily under the influence of warm spring winds.
