~ODETTE'S POV~
The sex we just had was amazing. It calmed every nerve about tomorrow, or rather today, that I had.
Christmas was going to be small this year, but I honestly preferred it that way. It was calmer and more intimate of a gathering than inviting half the pack into the palace for a giant party.
I couldn't wait to give my gifts to my friends and share my baked cookies with everyone. The servants were even given the day off to spend with their families, with guards rotating shifts frequently so they could also enjoy the holiday with their loved ones.
Sleep was so hard to find, it took what felt like hours to reach it. But when I finally did it was heavenly.
I woke to the smell of a warm mocha latte and bacon filling my nostrils. Sweet and savory.
My eyes blinked open, and of course Ambrose had already left the bed and was in the bathroom. The light under the door was a dead giveaway.
