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.

Scarred back.

A frown marred Azalea's forehead as she strained her eyesight in the dark room. There was no sight of Delaney.

"Delaney," she called out again and she heard the door to the bathroom creak open. Delaney walked out, dressed in a black robe and holding a burning candle in her hands. She leaned on the doorframe, raising an eyebrow at Azalea quizzically.

"I just came to check if you needed any help with the clothes." Muttered Azalea, trying to be as natural as can be. She had always been a good conversationalist, but she didn't know what it was about this woman that made her a little nervous. Maybe it was because of her cold aura and intimidating eyes?

Delaney still didn't speak and Azalea started to feel a bit impatient.
