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.

Going To See Draven

Ember had a relaxing time with her teacher after her first lesson. They had tea and snacks together in the garden as they discussed various things about the fire element and it added to whatever little knowledge Ember had about her power. She even got to hear the woman promise that she would show Ember her true form once she performed well enough, making the human girl eager to show satisfying results in their next lessons.

Once the Fire Fae left, Ember continued to sit in the gazebo of the garden. Her thoughts gradually shifted from her lesson towards the King. She wondered why he had left in such a hurry. 

'Is he avoiding me? Is it because I have not been a good mate to him? It's true though—he found an amazing teacher for me, and yet I have been unable to fulfill any of my duties of being his family.' 

Aside from saying 'thank you', Ember had not even shown him her gratitude for the things she had received so far. She's really been a terrible mate.
