Wandering Hearts

It is said that one can never defy fate. This notion proves its authenticity as Delaney finds herself caught up in the whims of her decided fate. Robbed of control over her own life, Delaney finds herself torm between feuds between mythical beings, creatures that have little or no regards to her emotions. As an abused child, Delaney grew up mostly detached from the world around her and when she decides to take control of her life, she chooses to be a bounty hunter to make a living and makes her own rules, living her life away from anything that causes her distress. But her world turns upside down as she becomes burdened by a murder accusation which almost causes her her life. At the day of her execution, she's saved by a dragon, to everyone's dismay, and is forced to live her life like a captive as she's yet again robbed of her own life. **** Broken hearts, misplaced souls and twisted minds. Even though our pasts may not predict our future, it will always be part of our future and present. Past mistakes, past heartbreaks, past miseries. They ruin us in a way that we are so scared of endings, that we always end up not beginning. And maybe all we need is a little sunshine. A little flower, and most of all... to forgive ourselves for things that we could and couldn't control.

Drunk

When dinner was served, Azalea joined them but Merikh was nowhere to be seen. The food was sweet as usual and Delaney ate her fill, considering she hadn't eaten anything except apples for the previous day. 

When they finished eating, Azalea cleared the table and Delaney decided to help with the dishes. She noticed that here servants didn't have to do everything. After they cooked dinner they just left to be with their families and Delaney thought it was a good thing.

As she wiped the clean plates, Azalea suggested, "you should come with me tonight. There's going to be a party and I thought you'd be bored sitting in the house alone."

"I don't think that's a good idea," Delaney responded, recalling how the people had treated her. It was very clear that they wanted to tear her to pieces every chance they got so she wouldn't take herself to the slaughter house.
