The Devil's Cursed Witch

The tale of a man who brings death and a girl who denies it. ---- On the haunted mountain in the kingdom, they say there lived a witch. She was born a princess. But even before her birth, the priest declared her to be cursed and demanded her death. They poisoned the mother to kill the baby before she gave birth, but the baby was born out of the dead mother—a cursed child. Again and again, they tried to kill the baby but she miraculously survived every single attempt. Giving up, they abandoned her on the haunted mountain to die but she still survived on that barren land— A witch ‘Why won’t she die?’ Years later, the people finally had enough of the witch and decided to burn the mountain. But the Devil arrived to her rescue and took her with him from that burning place, because dying was not her destiny even then. Draven Amaris. The Black Dragon, who ruled over supernatural beings, the Devil who no one wished to cross a path with. He hated humans but this certain human girl would pull him towards her whenever she was in danger. ‘Is she really a human?’ He took the human with him and named this mysteriously tenacious girl “Ember”, a piece of glowing coal in a dying fire. A soul tainted with vengeance and the darkness of hell, would rise from the ashes and fulfil her revenge. ------ This is the second book from the series of The Devils and Witches. 1st book - Witch's daughter and the Devil's son. 3rd book- The Devil's Betrothed. All books are connected to each other but you can read them as stand-alone.

Not Able To Focus

By late noon, Yula arrived at the King's study to update him about his mate. 

"So she is still not out of her bed?" the King asked. 

"Yes, Your Majesty. I personally checked on her twice but she responds to no one, not even her servants, and even refuses to have any food or drink. She is not sleeping and merely lying in bed."

Draven simply nodded to show he understood and allowed Yula to leave.

'Instead of working on the task I gave to her, she is wasting time like this?' He could not help but pinch the bridge of his nose. 'Seven days left till the full moon and if she is still not able to understand intimacy by then... Was it too soon for her? Was it wrong to let her understand what's bound to happen? It's stupid to not accept things that couldn't be changed. I only helped her to know what she would be facing soon…'
