The Dragon’s Sweet Prey

Born in the slums, Estelle is known to be the cleverest in her district. After seeing the sufferings people of the slums suffered, she decided to take the role as a phantom thief, stealing from the wealthy to return the rights of the poor— that is until a horrible accident happened which almost took her life and made her decide to quit for good. Things went even better for Elle, or worse, as she was revealed to be the missing daughter of Count Arthur. A wealthy noble’s daughter anyone had dream to be! While her father seemed delighted to greet her, her step mother and sister seemed to have held an opposing emotion. She thought she could ignore their bullying or perhaps continue her life back in the slums but realized that her father seemed to hold more secrets than he shows- a secret that could get her killed by the supernaturals who seemed to have regarded her as their "prey" She thought things couldn't get even worse, but god she was wrong! Out of everything she could do, Elle had mistakenly caught the eyes of Lord Magnus- the great Lord known for his handsome face, charming actions, and kind behavior... or at least that was how he appeared to others except Elle who unluckily discover his secret, a bigger secret that could either kill her or save her. Can Elle survive in this new world of nobles and supernaturals. What if the secret her father hold would eventually kill her? Or would she first die in the hands of her step families?

Ouch, Ouch, Ouch-III

"How bad is it?" The worried Magnus asked, holding his hands out to soothe her back and pat her shoulders. He stared at her stomach that she had said to be in pain but didn't notice that she seems so much in pain as her face contoured with a deep frown.

Rubbing her stomach, Elle wondered why her stomach was churning around but after a while the pain disappeared, surprising her.

"Is it better?" Magnus asked her first and she nodded her head. She didn't know why it was painful as well. The pain came so suddenly when earlier there had been no pain at all. It felt different than a cramp and more as if something had been pierced to her stomach, like a small but thick needles.

"Yeah," muttered Elle. "That was weird. It was so painful earlier."
