Chapter 32: My First Kiss Aylin’s POV,  The feeling of getting squeezed broke my unending darkness. My entire body was as heavy as stone, making it difficult to move. The soothing sound of birds was ringing in my ears. I opened my eyes to witness the calmness of the world, Rowan was deep asleep. He was holding me tight over his chest.
