Glaze Lily の小説・ストーリー

“I think you two can handle yourselves without me.” She handed Magnolia a flask. “Drink.” After a few gulps, Laya gave it to Killian to do the same. “So now what—” the words died in Magnolia’s throat when her voice changed into a deeper and more manly one. “Oh Gods,” she mumbled. She looked at her hands, they were huge and rough. “Did I really need this spell as well?” Killian looked annoyed. “Unless you want your face to end up on posters on every wall in town, then yes.” Laya spat. “Now go, remember that you only have half an hour.”

Lily’s glitter. I shut my eyes again, ease slipping into my shoulders. Today was supposed to be her orientation at the atelier. I tried to picture her in my head, how she may have dressed. Would she have gone with her red gloss or opted for something more subtle? I snorted to myself. Lily didn’t do subtle anymore. She probably walked in there with the largest beaded hat she owned and a long cape to match. Did she smell like peaches or lavender or roses today. Arielle loved flowers even more than Lily did. Whenever she came to our house she would drag Carter and I to the garden. We’d stay there for hours.

And then I saw them. Lilies. Rows and rows of them, stretching out in quiet elegance beneath a wooden arch trellis wrapped in climbing jasmine. Ivory petals, some with pink centers, some kissed with gold, all open like they were bowing to the morning sun. The breeze made them sway just slightly, like they were dancing to a song only they could hear. I stopped walking. “You planted these?” I asked, breath catching in my throat. Adam nodded beside me, and for once he wasn’t smug or teasing—he was just... still. Calm. “Last month. I asked Bridgette to help source the best bulbs. I wanted them to bloom now. For when you’d be here.”

I've never bought flowers for a girl before, so I chose Anemone, Camellia, Gladiolus, Bougainvillea, Cyclamen, Peonies, Jupiter Dahlia, and Purple Gomphrena. Basically, a mix of pink and purple flowers I've never seen before. I had the woman who sold them to me sprinkle silver and gold glitter all over the flowers to make them look even better. I told her to do that to all of the flowers I bought, like how some flowers have glitter on them. When she looks up at the flowers, her eyes get a little bigger. She takes them from my hand hesitantly and looks at them with a small smile on her lips. "Thank you." She says in a quiet voice as she puts them on her lap.

Lilly would bring power and title to her and our pack through this ceremony. "No, just excited!" She whispered, pushing the doors open to peek out at the beautifully decorated garden with its subtle nod to the pack's colours: white and blue tulips lined the cobbled path, and above, suspended like bunting, hung the stunning white and blue jasmine vines that I know Luna had shipped especially for today, wanting to show respect to her daughters intended but more so the Luna of The Meadow pack, word had it they were her favourite flower. No expense had been spared for today! Everything was perfect and precise! Like Lilly!, "Wow, it's stunning." I gushed as the door heaved open, and Alpha Leigh s

She taps the cover and slides it across the table towards Eva. “These are Gladioli and Calla lilies, but I’d also like to include some herbs in with the flowers. Maybe sage and rosemary? And possibly some ferns for contrast. I know it’s an odd bouquet.” Eva looks at her oddly, but nods and takes more notes. She hums, “Colours for the gladioli and lilies?” Celine hums, “White for both, I think.” Eva makes more notes, nodding as she does,

“I appreciate it.” “Should I send someone to come and take them so that here can be tidy?” Lily asked. I quickly rejected the idea, not wanting to disturb the divine remnants. “They look different. I have never seen this kind of petals and flowers before,” she said, touching one of them gently. That was true. One bunch was filled with various colors, and they seemed to shimmer as if they held their own light. “Did you just see that? It just glowed. Am I seeing things?” she said, pointing towards the flowers in the corner, her voice tinged with disbelief and excitement.

I wished that wasn’t the case. “I don’t know,” I finally managed. Lily said nothing for some time, and when I glanced over at her, I saw that she was no longer looking at me; she was looking at a nearby outcrop of glowing flowers. Seeing the longing in her gaze, I walked over and plucked one for her. But the flower’s glow died out almost as soon as the stem was cut.

Its petals shimmered with an otherworldly iridescence, shifting between shades of silver and pale blue as if capturing the very essence of moonlight. Lilly's heart raced as she realised what she was looking at. Moon Roses, the legendary flower of the Moon Goddess herself, were only meant to bloom once in a lifetime, but now a second one had appeared in front of her. At least while she wasn’t in a trance at first, and this one was like the first one, not like the three that everyone thought might be some kind of countdown.

Unable to wipe it off, Lily shuddered. “I tried,” the eleve shrugged. “I thought I was doing rather well, too, all things considered.” Lily’s top lip pulled back, baring her teeth. “I didn’t. Show me your true form.” “Ah, ah, ah,” the eleve teased. “I had you going for a minute there. And, as you well know, it seems, the only way to break the glamour is to spin. Unfortunately for you, I am certainly not going to allow you to do that.”
