[Rose’s Perspective.]

I had a dream that I was lying on a marshmallow, even though I had never actually eaten one. When I opened my eyes, I found myself lying on the bed in Edward’s room. It seemed that the softness of the bed was the inspiration of my dream, or maybe just the fact that I had a proper bed to sleep on instead of a piece of cotton. Although I didn’t know if it was good or bad that I had agreed to go back with Edward to his tribe, I just hoped that he would at least let me sleep on a bed that was just as comfortable.

I got out of bed and looked around. Edward was not in the room. I recalled that we had eaten in the city before Edward received a phone call. He was probably at the Alpha conference with Patrick right now. So I decided to wait in the room until he returned.

But eventually, my drowsiness returned, presumably because I was still recovering and had suddenly eaten too much. I went into the bathroom, washing my face with cold water to clear my head and keep myself awake. Then I heard the sound of a key opening the door. I thought it was Edward opening the door but when I glanced in the bathroom mirror and saw a woman’s face instead.

It was Sarah.

I ducked behind the bathroom door like a cat. Luckily, Sarah didn’t seem to know I was there. Thanks to the Moon Goddess, I was able to see through the crack of the door to see what she was doing without her noticing.

Sarah was then accompanied by an exquisite afternoon tea. An expensive-looking bottle of red wine, two tall glasses, and two nice-looking cupcakes, to be exact. She set them on the table at the head of the bed, looked around, and shouted out loud as if to make sure the room was really empty. A woman’s instinct told me that she wasn’t here just  to give her sweetheart afternoon tea.

Sure enough, after thinking that the room was empty, Sarah sat down at the head of the bed and carefully took something out of the small bag she carried with her. It looked like a small bottle of powder but I couldn’t tell because the bottle was so small and the contents were transparent.

I saw her unscrew the cap and sprinkle some powder into one of the glasses. Then she carefully put the bottle back into her purse and started undressing. And yes, she ended up completely naked. I didn’t want to keep looking but I couldn’t resist comparing our figures through the crack in the door. Her butt was too flat and there was a birthmark on her back that wasn’t too big or too small. I wasn’t saying she had a bad figure, but the scene turned out quite anti-climatic.

Luckily, Sarah had brought her own mirror in her purse so she didn’t have to come to the bathroom mirror to check herself out and discover me.

As the minutes ticked by, I remained in the corner while the both of us waited quietly for Edward to return to the room. I could feel my emotions building up. I couldn’t imagine what the new mate the Moon goddess had chosen for me would think about Sarah’s nudity. But regardless, I would remain strong..
