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.

Is She Scared Of Me Again?

"Miss, are you alright?" Helia asked, feeling worried to see her pupil gasping for air as if she took on manual labor. "Did something go wrong? Did you see your core?"

Ember shook her head in embarrassment. She didn't dare look her teacher in the eyes.

"Then what happened? Something must have gone wrong for you to react like this."

"I-I…I just pushed myself too hard. I didn't want to disappoint you…"

"Do not worry about disappointing me, Miss," Helia assured, not knowing what exactly had happened to her pupil. All she saw was Ember's entire face turning red and wondered if something had gone wrong with her power. "It is fine to take an easy pace. We are not in a hurry, and what we want is for you to understand your own power. Please try not to be self-conscious. You need to be calm. Hmm, should we take a break first?"

"I…yes, I am sorry…I need some time…" Ember muttered weakly and walked away from the middle of the training grounds.
