ISABELLA'S POV
I was lying on a soft bed of flowers. The sun felt nice and warm, the breeze was light and for once, my mind wasn't racing as if the universe had finally decided to give me a break. I took a deep breath and relaxed into this flowery dreamland.
The air was full of the sweet smell of lilies and roses, a nice mix that filled my lungs and helped ease any tension I had left in my body.
I didn't just feel like I was lying on the flowers; I felt like I was becoming one with them, blending into their bright reds, yellows, and strange blues. There was nothing solid under me, just soft petals all around and—
Sniff. Sniff.
What… was that?
I frowned, still halfway between bliss and reality.
Sniff.
There it was again. Something spicy. And... smoky?
My nose twitched. The dream shattered and my eyes flew open.
This wasn't a dream.
"Leo!!"
I shot up in bed, my hair all over the place.
"Leo?" I called, already fearing the worst.
