6. Rescued Kittens
Author: Mia Reid"Isn't it the cat got your tongue?" Raquel said innocently, as Myron moved his head sideways to his wife, so she didn't follow on her thought.
When Raquel looked at the other two people in the room, she noticed.
The air felt tense suddenly. Dominik's tone was obviously not well received by Annabelle, who now was no longer looking at the floor.
How was this guy managing to touch the nerves of their just arrived new guest in so little more than a phrase?
Why?

Onerea: The City of Dreams 44. Doubts
Belle sat in front of the scrying, crystal quartz, big, spherical artifact. The Queen explained to her how it was one of the many objects in Onerea that worked directly with energy.It was like one of the large pieces of machinery that were under the Palace in the Steam room. The same as that, but smaller.Onia was also telling her that there was not exactly a magickal process on it, but Belle was a little skeptical of that.She had heard how many ladies in London were doing this magic, usually, in their houses. It was said that those sessions involved spirits and that the spirits moved the tables, blew candles, made noises, or even knocked on walls or the same table.This, of course, was the dream world, and Belle was still not sure if spirits could make it there. When Onia started telling her truths that had happened with Domi, she was even more surprised. How was she supposed to know things like that?Anyway, for the moment, she was

Annabelle stood speechless on the table for a second. Dominik didn't dare to turn and see her, but he could feel her face was redder than a tomato.He was uncertain about how she was going to react and waited in that awkward silence. Nobody talked after Raquel let Myron know that she didn't remember. Nobody ate or moved. They just stood there, uncomfortably, until Myron talked again."I'm really sorry, guys. I thought she remembered. I thought she was ok with it. There's nothing wrong with it, Belle-"She had embarrassed herself, and now she didn't know how to fix it... what to do? She wasn't even sure... she couldn't remember, even if she tried. The only thing she wanted was to leave the house. Still not looking at anybody, she pushed her chair out and got up. Kept her eyes locked on the table and talked."I am truly sorry for whatever inconvenience I have caused you. I think I need to leave now. If you excuse me."Belle fast-walked t
Onerea: The City of Dreams 42. Slumber Party
The next morning came to Onerea. Belle woke up in a place she didn't remember, hugged by another lady that it took her a few minutes to recognize as Raquel.She seemed to be happily dreaming, with a big smile on her face and softly mumbling something.Belle removed her arm and slowly tried to get out of bed, forgetting that she was near the edge of it. Belle's attempt to turn her body and take it from under Raq's arm ended up in her falling to the floor.The loud thud seemed to wake up the gentlemen of the house, who both were sleeping in the room that used to be Dominik's, the door right in front of R and Myron's.He convinced Myron that he would take care of whatever had happened, so he could continue sleeping. The other one, more asleep than awake anyway just turned and continued lightly snoring.Dominik, on the other hand, seemed to have slept with an eye open all night long, making sure his pretty girl slept well.Nothing would happen t

Cami and Victor had left already, and Belle was uncomfortably standing on Domi's right and a step behind him. In front of them, a confused Myron and a giggling Raquel talked with Dominik, who seemed to be a little worked up."So, your best idea was to bring her here? Through the invisible bridge, to a place where the food could leave her trapped in the Dreamland, for the rest of her probably short life, since she wouldn't be able to feed herself?""Domi Cat, I told her not to eat Fae food. I even told her which was theirs, and besides her first scare, she seemed to be enjoying herself, especially when your friends came in.""Raq, I'm glad that you found her, and she didn't have to roam around the place on her own while I managed to get here, but still, I find the event really dangerous for someone who isn't from here!""I still don't understand what happened. Most people come to the city alone for the first few times, and they mess it up a little, but the
Onerea: The City of Dreams 40. Greeting Old Friends
Belle immediately reacted at Cami's suspicions and jumped to deny that her interest in her story was anything related to Dominik. "Oh, no, no. It's nothing related to Domi," Belle interrupted before Cami could say something that would make her blush even more, while Cami just smirked at the girl. "Then why do you want me to tell you such things?" Cami asked her."Well... I might be more curious than appropriate. I do apologize for that," Belle told her."Oh, well. If you say so. Victor and I have no problem in any aspect of our relationship, and yes, there are ways in which you can learn to control when you want to wake up and when you want to stay in the dream, especially since here you're usually fully conscious that you're dreaming, or what would be called or considered, lucid dreaming.In this state of mind, and since Victor and I are mates, our connection is in different levels more tangible than other people you could meet in a dr
Onerea: The City of Dreams 39. Answers
Raquel walked to the front of the group, still happily giggling and having fun with the game. She started calling Belle to the front, as there was no doubt that the only person that had ever seen her in the group was standing in front of them already and calling her to go as well. what could she do? Next time she'll ask how dangerous the games are. Was it all in Onerea about facing fears? Because Belle had just recently discovered that she was not happy in the middle of large amounts of people, especially if they're looking and pointing at her.She felt naked and defenseless and had still to walk the walk and go to the front.Cami was there, ready with a piece of fabric destined to be the blindfold of Belle. Even if she was so nervous, would she dare ask her? "Hello, girl. Why are you so worried?" Cami whispered to her."Uh... Well, I'm not exactly magickal... or expert on weapons... and don't want to be cut in half by one of the very f
