Chapter 52 : Ravishing Retreat

*Grace*

After a thrilling second day on the Swiss Alps, where David and I had spent hours skiing down the powdery slopes, and visiting a thermal spa afterwards, we finally returned to our cabin. The sky was a dark, velvety canvas punctuated by shimmering stars as we entered our cozy home for the night.

My body hummed with exhaustion, but my heart overflowed with happiness.

The embers in the fireplace cast an intimate glow over the room, their warmth inviting us to relax. David and I chatted casually about our adventures on the slopes, the adrenaline still coursing through our veins, as we prepared to go to bed.

We had showered at the spa, so I was glad I didn't have to get into the shower now.

"Your skiing skills have certainly improved since yesterday," David teased me, his features sparkling with mischief. I couldn't help but laugh at the memory of my countless falls on the previous day.

Today had been a bit better, but not enough so I could consider his words as the truth.
