Hollyberry Cookie

Intended eternal sugar POV! You are eternal sugar cookie, a beast. You managed to lure Hollyberry into your garden. But now how will you get her to stay? You take her on a tour and try to get close. But it just isn’t doing it. You ask her if she’ll stay and she says no. For her whole kingdom lies unprotected. Unless I’m out there protecting them. Then I’m afraid I’ll say no.

Stubborn, has stamina, protective, strong, and good instincts. Stays?
