An allegory of my Savior's story; the King who delayed the throne for you and me.

A wave of intense magic surges through me and my breath quickens. The blood pulses faster in my veins and my mind swirls as I transform involuntarily. I drop to my knees as pain radiates from every inch of my body. No one told me this would hurt so much. My bones pop and snap and rejoin into a new creature. Wings erupt from my back and I feel the scales cover my skin. My neck stretches and my jaw grows huge. I slide my tongue across the sharp teeth that emerge and I again try to open my eyes but they are still sealed shut.

A near escape from death, a stranger's home, and the taunting of horrific dreams start her new life spinning on the road to recovery. And who is this infamous Midnight Mustang with a heart of stone and intelligence like no other that sparks her memory so vividly? When a sinister plot emerges, will girl and horse have the strength to put aside their hatred and unite together to escape fate's hard threat?

****Copyrighted**** 'Tell me you don't feel it.' He whispered against my lips, and the trembling that had ceased at the feel of his lips against mine began again with renewed vigor. 'Tell me it's not what you want, and I'll go. You'll never have to see me again.' Swallowing, I looked up at the eyes that had entranced me from the start. I took in his every feature, slowly and deliberately. I thrilled at the feeling of his arms enfolding me, and I inhaled his familiar scent with a trembling breath. And then, then I did the most foolish thing imaginable: I flung my arms about his neck and kissed him with all that I had, almost losing myself in the safety and security I felt. But more than that, I ran. I took his moment of shock, the slight loosing of his arms about me, and tore myself away from him, shoving out the door and into the rain. I suppose I'll never know why he didn't follow me. It was the thing I feared most. I knew that if he came for me a second time, I wouldn't be able to say 'no'. I wouldn't be able to run. But I had to. I had to go. I couldn't let him be hurt because of me. He would live on now, and I would marry another. I had leased my last bit of passion in that one moment in his arms, and as I made my way through the dark streets, I felt myself become dull and lost like the creatures bound in the menagerie. **Much of this was written when I was younger and then I came back later and finished it. There will likely be mistakes. Lots of them.

I may not always be original, but I write this because Peter Pan is one of my loves! This is about how Peter struggles to move on from Wendy, his secret love.
