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."

Did you do this?

Levina nodded weakly, completely giving in. It didn't matter how much she struggled; she knew she couldn't overpower him. She had only one option, but she could not resort to sorcery, not until it was necessary. She felt Zarek press his lips against the hollow of her neck. She could perceive his musky scent mixed with the aroma of wine. He had been drinking, but he was clearly not drunk.

Levina was about to make another attempt at breaking free when she felt an external force. A rush ran through her body, followed by goosebumps, and before she could react, she felt Zarek's body go limp, falling against her. She tried pushing him away, but he fell to the ground with a thud.

Levina's heart raced; was he dead? If he was, people would assume she was the culprit, and she was certain she did not do it. Someone had used a spell on him; she had felt it moments before he went limp and collapsed into her. But who could it be?
