Summary: Armitage Hux is spending Christmas in a secluded cabin. A forest nymph named Rey who lives in the woods nearby takes a liking to him and follows him back from a walk …
The snow crunched under Armitage’s boots. He shivered despite being bundled in a warm coat. The man decided that he should turn around from the snowy forest path and head back to his cabin. He always felt most at peace among the trees, and he would always have to force himself to go back inside when it got too cold.
A twig snapped loudly and the red-headed man startled.
“It was probably just a bird,” said Armitage. “I really need to relax. That’s why I came out here after all.”
He heard a woman laugh and he whipped around to face the path behind him. For a split second, he saw a vision of a lovely young woman. She wore a pale lilac dress and a shawl of the same color hung from her shoulders. Three roses of red, pale pink, and white were arranged in her unkempt, yet still beautiful brown hair. When he blinked again she was gone.
“I must have lost my mind,” said Armitage, shaking his head.
He tried to ignore the fact that there was an extra set of footprints in the snow where there had not been any before. Armitage hurried back his cabin which stood just outside of the woods.
Armitage splashed his face with water and stared at his reflection. He had let his beard grow out, and the orange hair on his cheeks merged with the hair on his head. The man had come to spend a peaceful Christmas at the cabin he built earlier that year on a plot of land he had inherited. He had hoped he be able to relax, but he kept having the strange sensation that he was being watched.
When Armitage walked into his bedroom he nearly shrieked. The same woman who he had seen in the forest was sitting on the edge of his bed.
“There you are,” she said.
“W-who are you?” asked Armitage.
The beauty smiled. “I am a forest nymph. I watch over these woods.”
