Bride of a Dragon

{Mature Content} ...”I told you once that only two things will have me - you and death”... In a world where dragons were worshipped and witches were hunted and killed for revolting against the throne, Levina, a green-eyed witch, has lived her whole life running away from the dragons and hiding her secret. But what happens when Levina falls in love with the only person she is forbidden to love_ The Crown Prince and heir to the throne of Arvenia. She tries to keep her secret from him, to remain at his side, but what happens when Lucien finds out that the woman he had cherished with his whole being is a witch? Will Lucien turn his back on his people and be with her, or will he be forced to kill the woman he loves with his own hands? ... Excerpt "My lord, she's here..." Lucien's gaze remained fixed on the window as if seeing it for the first time. He heard her light footsteps draw nearer. Those footsteps had become etched in his memory. In the past, he would turn around with a smile when he heard them, but this time, he did not want to. "Lucien..." her somber little voice spoke, and they bore a crackle as though she had been crying. He turned around, and as he had thought, her eyes glistened with tears. "Lucien..." she called again, and he gritted his teeth, purposefully looking away. If he continued to look at her, he was not sure he could stop himself from running to her. "Is it true?" The question had bogged him all night, and he wished, so desperately that it was a lie, that she was not what they said she was. That she was just his Lev. Silence filled the air, and he met her gaze. Tears streamed down her face, but still, she did not answer his question, but instead she smiled; "I love you, Lucien."

The king is dead

"Why don't I make you a deal? Leave us alone, and I won't kill you?" Lucien said, his eyes darting from Barca's eyes to his sword.

Barca gave a dry laugh before swinging his sword at Lucien. Lucien quickly jumped back, the sword almost scraping the skin of his stomach. Barca swung his sword again, and Lucien dodged it again, but before he could find his footing, Barca smashed his foot into Lucien's stomach.

Lucien fell and landed on his back. Barca stood over him, with his blade against Lucien's throat.

"You should have given me the witch when I asked the first time," Barca said with a smug smile.

Levina watched as Lucien hit the ground. His efforts to save her were admirable, but she knew he wouldn't stand a chance without a sword. She looked around and found a rock. She quickly picked it up and took a few steps closer to Barca. Her shot had a better chance of hitting the target if the distance wasn't that much.
