I opened the door to the cabin and braced myself for her outburst, but she remained suspiciously silent.The fire was almost out and I walked over to it and threw a few more logs in it and took the poker and poked at it until the flames were roaring once again. Then out of no where the empty tankard came flying and crashed onto my back. Oh she was angry alright.

I turned around just in time as she was getting ready to smash the empty bottle on my head. I ran up to her, and grabbed the bottle out of her trembling hands.

"Stop!" I said angrilly. "Control yourself!"

And that got her even more pissed and she went on a screaming rampage, and beated her fists on my chest.

"I want to go home now!" she screamed loudly. "Take me back to New York!"

And I knew that it was time to leave this place. I lifted her in my arms as she kicked and screamed, and opened the door to the cabin and immediately we were wrapped in the bitter cold, as I carried Bella all the way to the mirror under the alp tree, and stepped right through it. Not giving a second thought if this was the better of the two mirrors.

Stepping through the mirror, I let go of Bella gently and she landed on her two feet, as she looked around pleased with what met her eyes. I let out a sigh of relief, thankful that I had made the right choice. This place looked like Heaven. Mayhap we can stay here a while longer and I can try to win her love.

"Come Bella." I said, and gave her my hand, and she took it and walked besides me.

The grass was a dark, rich shade of green as it unfolded over miles and miles of pastures.

I marveled at the nature of this beautiful setting. About a hundred yards from us was a tall pearly gate that was beckoning us to enter, and I pulled Bella along side me as we walked in what looked like The Garden of Eden. There was a wide variety of diverse plants, with dramatic views of trees and shrubs and flowers of all kinds imaginable. In the center was a water fountain, a magnificent structural gem, made of marble, in the middle it displayed young lovers in a romantic hold.

Sounds of splashing water and pleasant frangrances filled the air, as we walked down the cobbled path to this mythical site that connected man with nature. Each individual flower had its own color and energy, lighting up as it swirled with a life of its own, as if it was preforming a ballet just for us. The garden was enchanting and peaceful, designed for a place of spiritual healing, through contemplation, meditation and reflection.

I watched as Bella's gaze roamed over the ancient urban garden, that I was sure was designed just for us. The Council outdid themselves with this creation. They were setting the scene so we could meditate and connect with each other, I was sure of it!

The view was beautifully framed across the lake and was designed for cool temperatures, with a slow flow of water and a sense of privacy. Bella let go of my hand and walked up to the center of the garden, and she looked like the jewel of the garden, as she looked around the seasonal display with interest. Her eyes celebrated the sacredness of nature that provided a place for quiet contemplation.

I walked up to Bella and pulled her in my arms, and she fell against my chest, and relaxed in my hold. I am going to have her tonight sprawled on the plush green grass naked and wanting me badly to be inside her. Just thinking about it awakened my shaft and it ached as it came to life, waiting desperately for her soft touch.

I pulled my soulmate down a winding path of everchanging highlights, that featured a rich palette of trees, shrubs, bulbs and perennials. There must be more than eight hundred species and varieties, making it one of the most diverse gardens I have ever seen.

We reached a bridge that was a boardwalk over a flowing river, with virgin waters. One could see the fish that swam in it. There were birds, turtles, and rabbits, and colorful butterflies that flapped their wings and danced around us. Bella's gentle laugh as she tried to catch one, filled my heart with joy.

I found the perfect spot to stop and rest, and seduce Bella. I pulled her along to a gazebo that was decorated with climbing roses and had a traditional boxwood border. It had an old fashion feel to it as we walked inside it. I sat down and playfully pulled Bella on my lap, and she did not complain as she dropped on me and I wrapped my arms around her, enjoying the moment.
