She runs around catching her ball, playing alone has kept her boredom to minimal. The squirrels ran away when they noticed her presence, she once again threw the ball and tried to run after it.
She stopped as she saw a beautiful black fur lying in the woods, it was a puppy and it was bleeding and hot, it seemed like it had a fever. She immediately looks for the handkerchief her mother told to always keep with her. Carefully folding the white cloth, she slowly ties in onto the puppy wound on its belly just to stop the bleeding.
Carefully not trying to wake up the puppy, she carried it home.
“Mother, let's save the puppy!” Upon seeing the small figure of the feral, her mother got worri

Underneath the flickering light of the lamp the woman sits at the edge of the bed. With her barefoot she opens the door and leaves to the woods. Her long dark hair shines long under the moonlight, sparkling and waving, her skin so white like porcelain glows. The fairies who saw her arrival fly around her laughing and smiling as they play around her. The fairy dust gave light to guide her on her way deep into the forest. Under the full moon she holds the heart of magic, glowing under the evening light she prayed. The silver eyes that watched her from afar sparkled and teared. She smiled as if to console those lonely eyes.

Slowly the dragon descended to the ground, the magic that surrounded the silver dragon awakened the fairies and elves. They watch as the big creature enters the sanctuary with a human girl at its back. As the dragon lays the human body on the ground, it whimpers, the silver eyes glistening with tears. It is saddened by the state of the human, as it is lifeless like a trunk. The breathing is too low and the blood has gushed from her body. The fairies fly ar

Three times more spacious from her apartment, she looked around and saw that it has its own sitting area and the vanity stationed right beside the bed was fully furnished. Still feeling unrealistic, everything feels like a dream. The kidnapping, the werewolves, the scary creatures and that silver dragon. Her thoughts stopped when the door opened and emerged a young maid with dark brown hair carrying a basin of water and a towel.
