Though she had thought it was over, Leo clung to Charlotte as if unleashing something he had long suppressed. By the time it truly ended, she had grown accustomed to the sensation of being embraced by him.

Had I lost consciousness? As Charlotte slowly lifted her eyelids, she vaguely grasped the situation. Through her gradually clearing vision, an unfamiliar ceiling came into view. It seemed she had been moved to the temporary residence Ferndel had mentioned while she was unconscious. Golden sunlight. Pure white clouds. A blue sky. A mischievous little angel flying in it.
