Asher remembered that Thalia and her mother had hand- painted it together at a pottery shop. The figurine had once been broken, and he had founda restoration expert to repair it. Asher carefully picked up the ceramic dog, examining it from all angles.
The porcelain piece had been beautifully restored, identical to its original state. After inspection, he gently placed it back where it belonged. Several photo frames sat on the wooden cabnearby, all containing pictures of Thalia with her mother. One showed five or six-year-old Thalia wearing an adorable pink princess dress, her hair tied with a ribbon, sitting on her mother's lap.
She smiled sweetly at the camera, her clear, bright eyes shining like jewels, with two adorable dimples on her cheeks. Another captured Thalia's eighth birthday, wearing a delicate diamond tiara, eyes closed as she made a wish over her cake. Her mother, Sophie, sat beside her, smiling fondly. Yet another showed ten-year-old Thalia after winning a piano competition, flanked by both parents.

Awarm sensation enveloped her wrist as she was pulled by a strong force into a familiar embrace. Her back pressed against a solid chest.
Through the thin fabric of his shirt, Thalia could clearly feel the man's body heat. "Tm right here," Asher's voice was low and magnetic. He om embraced her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. As he spoke, his warm breath caressed her neck. In an instant, Thalia felt electricity course through her body, making her knees weaken. Asher sensed the change in her body and spoke with amused magnetism, "What's this? Already feeling weak?" A soft gasp escaped Thalia's lips.
