The snowy sky turn the morning to cloudy blue. The room was filled with warmth that came from the fireplace and Elise, who was asleep woke up drowsily. Her eyes first stare at the ceiling before she pushed herself to sit on the bed. She felt haggard. Did she fall asleep in the carriage? It must have been because she used her power, as after fainting once, she felt all her energy disappearing.
It took her a few moments to realize how dark the bed she was sleeping at. Was it still nighttime? Then Elise turned to notice that it was the curtain of the bed that covered all light. Pulling the curtain, she looked at the room that wasn't her. Once again, she had slept in Ian's room, thought Elise. But she couldn't find Ian anywhere.
Standing up from her place, Elise pulled open the curtain, her eyes squint as the light came to blind her view for a moment before she saw the wide spread of white on the backyard.
