This prompt is about as easy as can be --

Bloom 

Bloom 
Okay, I guess this is my warm up for the Amethyst exchange.
Bloom
There it sat, a single bloom, in its simple white vase.
Princess picked it up, for the umpteenth time, brought it to her nose and took in its delicate scent. Light, fragrant, taking her to a simpler time in her life, before she was the Swan. It was an unusual flower, not one she was familiar with. It had a deep violet hue and was streaked in lines of scarlet.
Even more puzzling was who sent this beautiful flower? Mark? Jason? It seemed out of character for either of them. If it was one of them, neither gave a hint to having done it.
She was taken by the mystery of it all, flattered that someone thought of her enough to give her such a striking flower. It had arrived at some point yesterday. She came in and found it sitting on her kitchen table. At the time the bud was mostly closed, but today it had opened up and reached its petals to the sun, displaying its colors like a proud peacock.
Her curiosity finally got the better of her. Maybe if she knew what the flower was she would have a better idea of who sent it.
Taking out her cell phone she hit the Google Lens button and took a picture of it. She held her breath as the results were quickly calculated.
As she looked at the resulting images a mix of revulsion and fear ran through her, she let out a cry and threw her cell phone across the room in disbelief.
According to Google, the flower was not of earth at all, but a native of Spectra.
Oooh!
Mysterious, and just a little bit sinister.

A secret admirer or a sinister one?
Thank you for this, Stardust!
