Rays of light reached Raze's eyes; his eyelids twitched before his eyes slowly opened as the rays of the rising sun entered them. The cold of the night before had vanished and he was breathing fine and normal.
"I survived? I really thought I would end up turning into an ice sculpture," he thought. He felt something wrapped around him and a warm feeling hugging him, so he turned his head to the side to see what it was; his eyes immediately met Ella's sleeping face.
He was stunned to see her; he almost leaked in fright, but had to force himself to stay calm and not make any sudden movements. He took a deep breath. Whatever was happening now had to have a good explanation.
As if knowing someone was looking at her, Ella's eyes twitched and then opened. Her eyes immediately met Raze's gaze; she froze, the sleep in her body vanishing instantly.
