Disclaimer: I do not own Maleficent. though I wish do. She's so beautiful. All the related thingies belong to Disney. I only own my OCs.

it focuses on Maleficent x OC, a bit of Diaval x 2nd OC. A bit of action in later chapters.

Maleficent is a complicated character, I can not make the romance blossom right away so... it'll progress... oh well, just read it!

I merely did this for fun. So it might not be my best story. Well, I hope you enjoy tho. So, basically don't like don't read.

"Fairy godmother! Fairy godmother!" Aurora called out as she reached the moors on her horse.

"I'm here," Maleficent stepped out behind some trees. "You look worried," she stated.

"Yes! There's another kingdom trying to rule over the moors! The king just came this morning to ask me to join them! He stepped out in fury when I declined..." Aurora said with worry.

"I thought no one else outside this kingdom knows about the moors..." Maleficent said skeptically.

"I thought so too... But they have come prepared! They said something about having a spy in the moors..." Aurora tried to recall.

"A spy?"

"I think it's that black horned creature you said... The one who was following you..."

"But the creature is from the moors... It betrayed its homeland...?" Maleficent said with a little hate in her tone.

"I don't know... I don't know what do do..." Aurora said sadly.

"Don't you worry, Aurora. I will find this horned creature and put an end to this." Maleficent stroked Aurora's hair reassuringly. "Return to your kingdom, you don't have to get involved in this.."

"But the moors are my people too!"

"I know, if I need assistance, I will come to you. For now just stay calm, I will handle this."

Aurora nodded and went back to her horse. "Stay safe, fairy godmother," she said with hope and went off with her horse.

Maleficent decided to search from where she last saw the creature; in the forest near her tree. Since the creature couldn't fly, it was probably running around.

Or that was what Maleficent thought. She searched near the end of the forest. She did not find a horned beast, but instead a horned man, his neck chained to a big tree's bark. He had tan skin and silver hair with black ends that seemed very soft. He was clad in black leather clothing with silver furry linings that matched his hair.

He was struggling to get the chain off, biting it as if his teeth were sharp enough. Maleficent waved her fingers and the chain instantly came off. The man looked around, confused. Until he saw Maleficent, he ran on all fours and tackled her until she fell to the ground with him on top. He smiled in a playful puppy manner and licked Maleficent's cheek.

"Get off me!" Maleficent said sternly and pushed the man away. He instantly stood up and looked away with a blush. "Sorry... I forgot I can turn into a man sometimes..." The man said.

"You! Are you that creature that has been spying on the moors?!" Maleficent said with anger as she wiped her cheek with her sleeve.

"Ye...sss... But stop! Don't kill me! Please! At least not before I tell you everything!" The man backed away as he saw Maleficent ready her magic, aiming to hurt him.

"Then tell me!" Maleficent ordered.

"Well... Where do I start...? Okay... So I was tricked into doing this okay...? I fell in love with a woman from their kingdom... And they used that to their advantage... I knew nothing! She just asked me about stories from the moors! I never knew she was telling them to the king! And well long story short, she received a bribe and turned me in. And well I ended up here... And I hate her!" The man said and growled.

Maleficent put away her magic. She was actually sorry for the man. His story is a bit similar to hers, maybe a bit less happier. The woman never really loved him. Even Stefan, before he turned to his greed, at least had affection for Maleficent. She shuddered at the thought of him. And apparently the man saw.

"Are you okay...? I can help you with this... I can help you win the war... I know what they have prepared... I can make contraptions to counter them... With a little help..."

"What's your name?" Maleficent regained her composure.

"It's Raqal," the man replied.

"How can I trust you?" Maleficent asked.

"Just trust me. Especially now I have grown a big hatred towards the kingdom of Wesle. Or should I say, weasel," Raqal said with hatred.

It seems he can be trusted enough. "They will come in about six days from now... At least that's what they said..." Raqal explained.

"You said you could build contraptions to help?" Maleficent asked.

"Yes, but for that I need supplies... Do you know where I could acquire those?"

"Yes, I do. Follow me," Maleficent walked.

"You can fly... I can keep track from down here..." Raqal looked amazed at Maleficent's beautiful wings. "I like your wings..." He reached out to touch her wing. But she backed away instantly. The last person who had said that and stroked her wings took them away from her for more than sixteen years.

"Sorry," Raqal apologized and retracted his hand. Maleficent took off and saw that the man turned into a black horned wolf and ran to follow her.

it's short, I know. but I will post the next chaprter very soon if I get good responses. I'm actually in no mood of writing romance fics, but I wrote this awhile ago and haven't uploaded it. Something someone said fucked up my life a little. so yeah. perhaps this fic is a place i take refuge to.
