Wandering alone thru the park, Lady found herself near the banks of the river.
The night was clear, the moon was full and a slight breeze carried the sounds of the neighboring village to her
over sensative ears.
She walked slowly out the rock wall , sitting at the farthest edge out into the water. Alone , she always seemed to find herself alone these days.
It had not always been that way ,being alone. She wrapped her arms around her legs as she sat and watched the moon. Thinking back to those times when she was a human. The parties with their formal ball gowns . The men all so handsome in their tuxes.
Then that one night. He showed . Sighing softly , remembering it as if were yesterday and not centuries ago.
The ball had been for royality. Her family being of noble blood had been invited. She was only 23 then. Her
gown had been of a rich dark satin green. Overflowing with layers of black lace. She had worn her hair down
that nite. Long flowing black ringlets to her waiste. When he walked in , she had felt a chill pass thru her
even though she hadnt turned around. The room had grown silent except for the women whispering to their
daughters that he was the one they were born to marry.
Lady turned slowly around . He looked at her, his eyes burning thru to her soul. Were they black? Yes dark
as night. Her heart pounded in her ears , she couldnt breathe. He smiled a bit of a cocky smile at her and
walked to the bar. The room filled with noise again. She excused herself , all but running to the doors leading
to the balcony.
No sooner had she caught her breath, she heard his voice. Asking her to stay he wanted to be with her. She
turned around quickly but he wasnt there. But she could smell his cologne , could feel his breath on her neck.
Running down the stairs to her waiting carriage , Lady had told her driver to take her home. Was this a dream?
Or was she losing her mind........
