The Princess and the Moonlit Frog

Princess Liora loved bedtime more than breakfast, because every night her golden ball rolled off the satin quilt and bounced onto the moonlit grass outside.
She would tiptoe past the snoozing guards, chase the glowing sphere across the silver lawn, and listen to the frogs sing in the lily pond.

One gentle evening, the ball hopped straight into the pond with a plop.
Ripples spread like spilled stardust.

Liora knelt at the edge.

"Please come back, little friend," she whispered.

The water shimmered, and up popped a tiny frog wearing a crown of dewdrops.

"Good evening, Princess," the frog croaked politely.
"I can fetch your ball, but I would like a favor."

Liora’s eyes widened.

"What favor."

"Let me sleep on your pillow tonight so I can see the stars through your window."

Liora giggled.

"That is easy."

She held out her hand, and the frog pushed the ball onto her palm with his nose.

The moment she touched the sphere, it sparkled with new colors, as if the moon had painted it with secrets.

Back in her tower room, Liora placed the frog on a lace cushion beside her head.

"Good night," she said, yawning.

"What is your name."

"Puddle," he answered.

"Sweet dreams, Princess."

When dawn painted the sky peach, Liora awoke to find, not a frog, but a small green boy with kind eyes and a crooked smile.

"Puddle."
she gasped.

He nodded.

"A friendly witch once cast a spell.
By day I am a boy; by night I am a frog.
Only a promise kept under moonlight can break the spell forever."

Liora clasped his webbed fingers.

"Then I promise to help you."

That afternoon they searched the castle library.

Dust motes danced like tiny fairies between the shelves.

High on a ladder, Liora found a leather book titled Moonlit Promises.

She opened it, and words floated off the page, rearranging themselves into a map that glowed softly.

"Look," Puddle said, pointing to a picture of a silver lily.

"The Moon Lily blooms tonight on the far side of the pond.
If I touch its petal before midnight, I will stay a boy forever."

Together they hurried to the pond.

Fireflies floated like lanterns, but the Moon Lily was nowhere to be seen.

A sleepy turtle poked up his head.

"The lily only blooms for one who shows true kindness."

Liora thought hard.

She noticed a baby bird tangled in reeds.

Carefully she freed the frightened creature and set it on a branch.

The moment she did, a single silver lily unfurled on the water, glowing like a fallen star.

Puddle reached out, but the lily drifted just beyond his fingers.

"It is too far," he sighed.

Liora knelt, cupped her hands, and formed a little boat from a lily pad.

She blew on it gently, and the leaf glided across the water.

The Moon Lily hopped aboard as if happy to ride.

When the pad returned to shore, Puddle touched the petal.

A hush fell over the pond.

Moonlight wrapped around him, and his frog skin melted into human clothes stitched from moonbeams.

"You did it."
Liora cheered.

Puddle smiled, no longer crooked but bright.

"Because you kept your promise."

They raced back to the castle, hand in hand.

The king and queen were surprised to meet a boy who knew every frog song.

When they heard the story, the queen declared, "A promise keeper is always welcome here."

From that night on, Puddle stayed human.

At sunset he and Liora would sit by the pond, tossing pebbles that skipped three times before sinking.

The frogs sang louder than ever, as if celebrating one of their own had found a true friend.

And whenever the golden ball rolled off the quilt, it no longer bounced outside but settled gently at the foot of Liora’s bed, glowing softly until morning, reminding her that kindness, like moonlight, can change everything.
