Once done with dinner the group came back home and decided to go do their own things. Flora went to the greenhouse. She had so preoccupied with her nightmares that she had yet to see it. As she walked it she automatically felt a million times better. Being around nature always made her feel better. Ms. Faragonda did a wonderful job with the greenhouse. It had tons of different plants and flowers. Flora stopped to look at the tiger lilies. They were always so beautiful with their bright orange and yellow petals and little black spots all over them. They were so unique.

"I had a feeling I would find you in here." Helia came over to stand next to Flora. "So I just finished talking to my uncle."

"What did he say?" Flora wanted to know what Saladin said but she was also dreading it.

"He doesn't know why the Prince would want you for. He said that to be on the safe side, don't go out when it is dark out. That is where he is strongest."

"What about the nightmares?"

"He doesn't know how to stop them completely, but he did say if you leave the lights on while you sleep they won't be as bad."

Flora sighed. It wasn't the greatest news but it wasn't the worse either. "Okay, well I'll make sure to do that tonight. Thank you Helia."

"Flora may I ask you something?"

"Of course, what is it?"

"Why did you buy that dress? I'm not saying it looks bad. Actually it looks absolutely stunning. It just doesn't seem like you at all."

Flora had a feeling this question was going happen sooner or later. Everyone was staring at her dinner. "I honestly don't know. I guess I bought it because I am sick and tired of people just seeing me as the sweet little nature fairy that's quiet and doesn't say much, who always fades into the background. When I wore this and my black bikini people actually noticed me."

"Flora, to me you never fade into the background, you are always center stage. And you know people don't think of you like that. They see you as the kind, loving girl who loves everyone and everything."

"Thank you Helia, but sometimes I am not always sure about that."

"Just know one thing Flora. I love you and I always will, no matter what."

"I love you too Helia."

The two of them shared a passionate kiss surrounded by nature.

Later on…

Flora shivered. It was around two o'clock in the morning and everyone else was fast asleep. But Flora just couldn't fall asleep. She kept the lights on like Helia said, but that just made her have an even harder time falling asleep. Flora contemplated going over to Helia's room, but she knew she couldn't do that. Helia had stayed with her the past two nights and she couldn't ask him to do it again. So she walked out to her balcony to get some fresh air. The ocean breeze felt nice on her skin and it helped her relax a little. She looked over at the evening primroses and saw that they were wilting, so using a little magic she helped them fully bloom.

"You look absolutely gorgeous tonight Flora."

Flora jolted up and looked around. She knew she heard someone whispering to her, but she couldn't see anyone.

"Flora, come to the beach. It's a beautiful evening. The moon is shining brightly."

She heard it again and still didn't see anyone.

"Whose there?"

"Come to the beach. And I will show you."

Flora wasn't sure what to do. She wanted to learn who this voice was, but she also remembered Helia telling her not to go out in the dark.

"Flora, I can help you."

In her head Flora knew this wasn't a good idea. But something in her told her to go. It was like a force was making her go to the beach. She grabbed a sweatshirt to put over her nightshirt and headed out to the beach.

Once on the beach Flora scanned for the figure that was calling her name. "Alright, I'm here. Now tell me what you want!
"You are a lot feistier then I had first thought. But you are even more beautiful in person." A man appeared, from what seems to be out of nowhere. Flora stepped back in surprise. The man was handsome. He had short black hair, fair skin, and midnight blue eyes. He was wearing a black leather jacket, white t-shirt, dark blue jeans, and black motorcycle boots. He looked like the ultimate bad boy. Flora didn't usually go for the bad boy type but for some odd reason she was attracted to this guy. She didn't even know his name. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Orion." He bowed. "I have been admiring you from afar for quite some time and I just had to meet you."

"It is a pleasure to meet you Orion, but I am afraid you came for no reason. You see, I have a boyfriend already."

"I am sorry to hear that. But I still want to help you."

"How can you help me?"

"I know you have been having nightmares and I know a way to stop them."

Flora didn't know what to say. How did this guy know about her nightmares? And how could he possibly stop them?

Orion noticed Flora's silence. She couldn't see but he had a wicked smile across his face. "I am sure you are wondering how I can help. It is actually quiet simple. All you need to do is come with me. At my palace I will be able to mix a potion that will ward away all your nightmares." Orion outstretched his hand towards Flora. She was hesitant to go with him. She did not know him at all. Like out on the balcony her head said no, but like someone was forcing she grabbed his hand. They headed to the ocean where a portal had appeared.
