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.

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.

The Reason For Her Pain

Ember, who had gone unconscious for hours, finally woke up. She felt surprised to find herself in bed, her last memory being in the bath. 

"Miss, you are awake?" she heard the cheerful voice of Reya who had noticed that Ember had stirred under the sheets.

Ember blinked in confusion at her two servants who came to check on her immediately.

"Miss, are you feeling alright now?" Clio asked as she helped Ember sit up, the other elf moving to hand a glass of water for her to drink.

"Wasn't I taking a bath?" Ember asked in a low voice after giving the empty glass back to her servants.. 

"Don't you remember, Miss? You fainted suddenly in the bath." 

"We were so worried the entire time you were unconscious."

Hearing their concerned voices, Ember tried to recall what happened, causing her body to tremble. 

Pain. She was in so much pain.
