Hello my fellow readers!

I hope you guys like this story. My OC Amy is actually named after the talented lead singer from Evanescence. Amy has wavy brown hair and brown eyes. Her outfit is a black tank top which his covered by a brown vest. She wears regular blue jeans and black boots, her hair is kept in a pony tail. Emmy Rossum would portray Amy. Unlike Sarah I wanted to create an OC who was not only feisty but someone who welcomes any challenge thrown her way. Amy also has a mouth which isn't a surprise since most of my OC's do lol. I only own my characters the characters from Labyrinth belong to their creator. Also feel free to hate Colin because he's a jerk and will be a thorn in Amy's side through out the story.

Amy's POV

"Now that was an interesting story" I told my dragon Moondancer as I shut the book called "Labyrinth". The book had been recommended by one of my co-workers.

"Aren't you a little old for fairy tales?" Moondancer teased me.

"Oh hush" I replied to her.

I lived in a wooded area community thirty minutes from Portland. The state I resided was Maine and it was the perfect area to live in my opinion. You would probably think I was crazy if I had a dragon as a pet but it's the truth. Various fictional beings like elves, fae, goblins, fairies, etc existed. On the outside I looked like your average thirty-five year old woman but I was far from ordinary. I'm actually a hybrid shapes shifter or shifter for short. My mother was a werewolf while her mate and my father was a snowy owl shifter. Normally mating outside of one species was rare but it happens.

My father lived a solitary life like most owls did except when it was time to mate and he came upon my mother while hunting in her pack's territory. Once the mate bond between my parents opened up the rest was history. Mom was the daughter of the beta pair from her pack so she was free to leave with Dad if she wanted to and she did. After six years of marriage my parents decided to start a family and nine months later came my brother Julian. Three years later I was born and once we were old enough my parents opened up a wildlife sanctuary for wild animals. I started working at the sanctuary shortly after turning eighteen and I loved it.

My mother went to vet school and become a wildlife veterinarian. Dad was in charge of rehabilitation with the animals that came to our sanctuary. Julian wanted to follow in Mom's footsteps and he was currently enrolled at vet school. I went to school as well so I could learn how to properly care for wild animals in sanctuaries. At the sanctuary we mostly try to release and rehabilitate animal who are sick or injured. But occasionally we encountered some animals that wouldn't make it in the wild so they had a place to live for the rest of their days.

Moondancer had been given to me by Julian after I finished college. I spent long hours keeping her egg warm properly and when she hatched did she imprint on me as her mother. She was a unique dragon who had a small form but she could shift to a larger state and be ridden. She was a four legged dragon with silver scales covering her body. The two horns on her head matched her scales. Her wing membranes and underbelly scales were solid gold. She had gold frills at the end of her tail as well.

Today was my day off from work and I was enjoying the spring afternoon with Moondancer. The dragoness sat on my shoulder as I was sitting on the grass leaning against a tree. I almost left one important thing out. I had the ability to use ice magic something I inherited from my mother's side of the family. All wolf shifters depending on the rank in the pack had gifts and since I was part of the beta bloodline I had my ice magic. Julian had the gift of healing while Mom had the ability to hear animals.

That was one reason she became a vet.

"So what was this book about?" Moondancer asked.

"It's about a young girl who wishes the goblins take away her baby brother" I began. "After he's taken she regrets her decision and the Goblin King appears before her"

"Let me guess this king falls in love with said fair maiden?" Moondancer inquired with amusement in her voice.

"Bingo and he offers for the girl thirteen hours to solve his labyrinth and if she made it to the castle, her brother would be returned to her if not he would become a goblin forever" I continued. "She encounters many challenges several caused by the goblin king himself but she succeeds in the end, she chooses her brother over love the king obviously has for her"

"That sucks you got to feel bad for the king in the end"

"Well duh" I replied. "From the way he's described he sounds handsome"

"Uh huh"

I chuckled at Moondancer's remark just as my I-Phone vibrated. It was a text message from my ex-boyfriend begging for a second chance. I immediately deleted his text and blocked his number. Colin was a wolf shifter like me and at first everything between us was great. It was then I saw his dark side and he became verbally abusive. He tried to convince me to quit school, leave my job, basically control everything I did. I was raised well enough to recognize the signs of domestic violence and I ended things with Colin after three months of dating. It turned out the asshole was cheating on me so it was a good thing I ended the relationship. For awhile he left me alone but recently he started to harass me and I was seriously thinking of getting a restraining order.

"Him again?" Moondancer growled.

"Yep"

Colin didn't like Moondancer since she got a lot of attention from me and he even tried to manipulate me into selling her and I ended up slapping him across the face for that. She was my child and there was no way in hell I was getting rid of her. When I was fifteen I was told by a doctor my chances to have children were minimum to none and so Moondancer was that important to me.

"Check it out" Moondancer said getting my attention. I looked in the direction she did and sitting on a rock nearby was a barn owl. The bird of prey seemed to be interested in me and Moondancer.

"He wants to get closer but is unsure about me" Moondancer explained. The dragoness could communicate with animals and those of the supernatural base. My daughter opened her wings and flew off my shoulder and she glided over to the barn owl. The bird jumped a little when she landed next to him. After seeing Moondancer wasn't a threat both owl and dragon checked each other out. The barn owl gave a screech and Moondancer slid her tongue out and went to groom the back neck feathers of the owl. The bird of prey closed it's eyes obviously enjoying being pampered. When she finished the barn owl gave Moondancer an affectionate nip before he took flight.

"Looks like you got a boyfriend" I teased Moondancer as she returned to my shoulder.

"Oh please" the dragoness replied. "He wasn't interested in me like that"

"Uh huh" I answered not believing her.

Suddenly the sound of thunder got us to look up. The sky looked like it wanted to storm and I decided it was time to head home. I lived close by in a rental house and it wasn't a long walk. However I couldn't let go of the feeling I was being watched as I left the park.

Like Amy and Moondancer?
