"This is the one time I would allow you to set anything on fire. Why aren't you moving?" Zayne asked as he stood up but Rose remained seated. "I don't trust you with fire where you are."
"It is not that. Can you please go ahead so I can stand and straighten the blanket?" Rose asked, leaving out that she wasn't properly dressed.
"Very well," Zayne replied, turning around to leave. He had disturbed her when she thought it would only be her and Janice. "I will wait for you in the kitchen."
Rose quickly stood to shift the blanket so she could pull on it at the front to stop it from falling. She then hurried to go to her room to get changed into a dress. She could not burn the paper and hand onto the blanket at the same time.
She was not ready to be so exposed before Zayne.
