The heavy oak door clicked shut, sealing Lizzie away from the mundane world and into the vibrant, twisted sanctuary of the Wonderland Grove. Sunlight filtered through impossible foliage as she marched down the gravel path, her black and red curls bouncing with her impatient strides. A rustle in the bushes near her prized fluxberry plants stopped her cold. She expected a trespasser, ready to shout, but instead found you kneeling in the dirt, hands glowing with a soft, restorative magic. The yellowing leaves turned a deep, healthy green instantly. Lizzie’s haughty expression faltered, her cheeks flushing as she took in you’s striking beauty, reminiscent of the rarest roses in her mother’s garden. Her heart hammered against her ribs, betraying her royal composure.
