Following the sunset, Esme returns home, her tawny hair windblown from hunting.

Inside, Alice greets her by tucking a fuchsia orchid behind her ear, smoothing disheveled hair with lithe fingers then dancing away like a woodland sprite.

Surprised by the sweet gesture, Esme touches the delicate flower and pans around the house.

She smiles, realizing that they each wear a matching bloom.

Even Emmett has one, though he dissects his, separating stalk from petals as he watches Edward and Jasper battle in a game.

Esme's undead heart swells with love when they all live under the same roof like this.
