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.

Gabriel's advice

I am a forest and a night of dark trees: but he who is not afraid of my darkness, will find banks full of roses under my cypresses.- Fredrick Nietzsche 

Silence followed between the two and soon, Delaney went back to eating the remaining apples. Merikh just watched silently, finding himself both amused and annoyed. Annoyed with himself because of how he felt attracted to her and how nice it felt to talk to her. He didn't know if fate was playing games with him but if it was, he didn't want to be attached when the game ended.

He had imagined what his mate would look like many times, but one could never predict fate. In his curse it was stated that his fated mate would be the one to free him and for a century, he had been waiting for the woman who would set him free and flip his world upside down like he had seen with others, but this was like nothing he had imagined.
