Rosa felt the scorching heat envelop her yet she knew she was dreaming. Even though she was drowning in quicksand in a desert, everything around her smelled like coffee.
This makes no sense at all. Wake up already!
There was another reason why she knew she was asleep, Kael had promised to be with her and protect her at all times, and so, her sleeping brain decided she must be in the Highmore manor and the summer in the capital must be hitting her hard.
"Hot... too hot, Roxan..." she mumbled, finally waking herself up. "...Huh?"
Even with her eyes barely open, the strange brightness almost blinded her, it reminded her she was no longer in Drakemore and was in the desert now. She slowly sat up to stretch only to find herself covered to the neck with a blanket.
"...No wonder I was suffocating."
