"Don't you understand?" the look in his eyes made her want to cry.

When Eden awoke the strangest feeling of luminous warmth reverberated throughout her. As if she had been bathed in a pleasant glow of heat.
Her eyelashes fluttered and she opened her eyes to a bright light.

Eden's eyes widened and her mouth gaped.
She raised the covers and peered under them and surely enough the beautiful sparkling silver gown rested bunched up below her feet.
