A survivor of the COVID-19 Pandemic, a middle-aged woman spent most of the year 2020 mourning the loss of her husband who succumbed to the virus earlier in the year. When the holiday season approached the woman realized she would be spending her first Christmas without her husband of many years. She knew she wanted something that would take her mind off of her loss and reserved a stay at a renovated royal estate.

The stay at the venue exceeded every one of her expectations as she availed herself of all the amenities the grand place had to offer. Her very sensuous experience at the day spa, left her vibrating afterward. The chance to flirt with the patrons in the full-service bar and the exhilaration of the long walks around the estate she took every afternoon. The time went by so quickly and before she knew it she was celebrating her last night at the luxurious establishment. It was with a deep sadness she finished her last drink and headed to her suite for the last time.

Returning to her room, she ready herself for bed. She heard a strange noise in the room and when she looked around she spied a young girl of about eighteen shivering in the corner of the room. The woman was certain the girl had been outside in the cold and needed her help to ward off hypothermia. The first thing she thought of was to let her get in her bed and try to warm her up. Eventually, she decided to use her bodily warmth to revive the girl from the bone-chilling cold that afflicted her. Little did she know in so doing, the mysterious girl was about to take her on the adventure of her life.
