Little Garden Arc 소설 & 이야기

Grace mumbled, trying to control her erratic heartbeat. "I can see you're quite interested in this garden. Usually, only the royal family can enter, but this garden belongs to my fiancé, so I can accompany you inside if you'd like," Jocelyn said, then extended her hand. "I know it's quite late, but our tea is light. I’m sure you will like it." Staring at the tiny and delicate hand in front of her, Grace couldn't help but shake it. Jocelyn's gentle grip made Grace unwittingly step into the garden, ending up in a round gazebo with a marble floor surrounded by four small pillars, each supporting statues of angelic children.

His touch was warm and reassuring and this made me feel safe and loved. We walked for a while until we reached a secluded garden, hidden away from the rest of the grounds. It was a place I had never seen before, and as we stepped through the archway, my breath caught in my throat. The garden was bathed in soft, warm light from lanterns hanging in the trees. Fragrant flowers bloomed everywhere, filling the air with a sweet, intoxicating scent. It was like stepping into a fairytale. "Alaric, this is beautiful," I whispered, overwhelmed by the scene before me. He had decorated the garden so carefully, with every detail chosen to create a romantic atmosphere. It was clear he had put a lot of tho

Ava I followed Lily out into the gardens, the light evening breeze carrying the faint scent of roses and freshly turned earth. Moonlight filtered through the trees, casting flickering shadows across the winding stone paths. Moonrise gardens were just as lovely as Moonstone gardens—if not a bit more manicured. Every pebbled pathway was lined with hedges and shrubs, each one pruned into some sort of fantastical shape or another: an elephant, a heron, a perfectly round sphere.

Princess Lana made a soft sound in the back of her throat, an acknowledgement that she heard. "Is there a reason you are here?" "Yes...My aunt wants you to join us for lunch." "Oh." I mused. "Sure." I strolled at an even pace, and we remained in silence for the first couple of minutes as I fervently tried to recuperate. Very few people stopped to talk to us during our walk around the garden, leaving us time to gaze at the exquisite flowerbeds slightly discoloured fountain in the middle of the garden that gave rise to a pleasant ripple of water. A gardener made a hasty bow when we walked past the round hedge he had been trimming carefully.

Their garden was about the size of a small room now, a vibrant oasis of green and silver in the vast whiteness. Alaric held a cup of water from the stream Kael had helped clear. “To the first harvest,” he said, his voice thick with emotion. He poured a little onto the soil, an old vintner’s blessing. It was then that Lyra, who had been quietly watching the garden, pointed. “Look.”

~ Lumiére's POV ~ The garden was a serene oasis, a secluded haven within the confines of the sprawling mansion. The tranquility of the space was expected, given that it was a closed off area of the house, accessible only to a select few. The meticulous care bestowed upon the garden was evident, with every flower in full bloom, exuding fragrances that tantalized the senses. For Lumiére, the garden served as a refuge, a place where he could gather his thoughts and clear his head after the endless meetings that seemed to plague his every waking moment.

Every time either of them moves, the smell of them fills the small space; Jon's earthy musk, Arc's clean spice, and it sends heat flooding in my stomach. We should be going home. But I don’t want to be alone. Not tonight. "Let’s go to my place," Arc had suggested as we left school. His voice was low but firm. "It’s closer. Quieter." Jon had hesitated, eyes flicking to me. I nodded without thinking. I need quiet. But I also need them. Now, as we pull into the long, winding driveway that leads to Arc's house, my breath catches. The place is massive. Gothic. Like it belongs in a vampire novel, with ivy crawling up the dark stone and black wrought-iron gates that creak open as we pull through.

The maid was astonished by her strength and gasped, “T—This way…Thank you so much, my lady!” They took a narrow path and hurried into the garden. In the heart of the garden, a grand gazebo decorated with cascading roses and ivy stood as the focal point. Twinkling lights and delicate ribbons adorned the structure, dancing in the warm breeze and the soft melody of a distant orchestra. Elegant tables rounded the gazebo, with candles and blooming centerpieces arranged on top. The maid steered Aurora across the garden. On the way, she received many strange looks from all directions.

[ELARA] The garden is bathed in the soft, golden light of morning. Each dewdrop clings to the grass like a delicate jewel, reflecting the sunlight in a way that almost makes it seem as if the earth itself is alive, breathing under the warmth of the day. The air is crisp and clean, filled with the gentle fragrance of blooming flowers. On any other day, this would feel like a sanctuary—a peaceful refuge far from the burdens of the castle and the weight of its secrets. But not today. Not with everything that has happened.

' She thought. The garden was a peaceful oasis, with benches and small tables scattered throughout, inviting visitors to sit and enjoy the tranquil surroundings. As Kira walked further into the garden, she saw a small gazebo off in the distance. The gazebo was covered in vines and flowers, and the sun shone through the leaves, casting a dappled pattern on the ground.
