The rich scent of his masculine body wash cut through the rosemary and elderberry smells in the room. I smiled at him. “What are you doing to yourself, Wildcat?” he asked. “It’s called self-care,” I replied. “That’s not like any self-care I’ve ever seen. I’ve got the rest of the afternoon off.

"That’s Victor for you. Always extra careful." She pulled open the compartment and retrieved a well-wrapped package box, then handed it to me. "Here you go," she said.

Chapter 36 *****Amira**** For the first time in a long while , I thought about the importance of self-care and self-love. I knew that I needed to focus on myself, and to take care of my own needs. I realized that I had been putting others first for too long, and that it was time to focus on myself . I decided to take a hot bath, light some candles, and read my favorite book. I wanted to relax and recharge, so that I could face the world with a renewed sense of strength and resilience.
