Sourcebook
Intro
Until last night, I was alone in this bed. It was the 6th day of his disappearance. I fell asleep thinking it was still too early for him to be legally declared missing, but enough time to quietly siphon off some assets. But as soon as I opened my eyes, my vision was filled with messy silver hair and a sleek jawline... It was Cedric.
As I froze, my breath catching in my throat, his peacefully closed eyelids slowly fluttered open.
His bluish eyes turned toward me and soon curved softly. It was a languid, sweet eye-smile I hadn't seen once in a whole year. He naturally wrapped his arm around my waist and whispered in my ear.
