As much as Aurora enjoyed taking a leisurely stroll through Sidereal Gardens, and for as beautiful as the flowers were, it was proving to be a particularly chilly day. The sun had begun to make its slow descent from its zenith in the sky and the early evening shadows had long since chased away the remaining daylight, leaving the grounds cold and gloomy. So she'd chosen to spend the rest of her evening in the garden's seating area instead. Fashioned almost entirely out of reinforced glass, the domed room was still surprisingly warm, and she'd set about lighting a collection of the lamps in each corner and arranging a cozy spot for herself upon the squishy, butter-yellow sofa set on the far side of the room.[break][break]
She supposed she could have headed back to her dorm, or even the library, if all she wanted to do was read. But they were both always so crowded, and she spent enough of her time there as it was. It was a welcome change of pace to have somewhere she could be alone. Especially because she couldn't imagine being caught red-handed immersing herself in the trashy romance she had clutched between her delicate fingers now.[break][break]
Not that there was anything wrong with enjoying the idea of being swept off of one's feet by some tall, dark and handsome rogue. Right? But with each turn of the page, she felt her face begin to flush with astonishment and bashfulness, eyes wide as she devoured the increasingly steamy chapters with intense focus.
