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?

You Shouldn’t Be Here-III

Arthur stopped on his feet and he appeared to be shocked as Estelle had yelled at him, even telling him to stay away from her even though she had always been keeping a good relationship with him. Her eyes were filled with anger and her fists were clenched in two fists. She seemed to be holding herself from doing anything but it's clear that she didn't want to be close to him, much less talk or look at him in the eyes. His eyes immediately snap back at Magnus, knowing well that it was something this devil had done that made his daughter to look at him as a villain with such hateful eyes.

"What had happened, Estelle?" Arthur asked, his voice gentle trying to be as calm and collected as possible to her. But Estelle didn't want to get close, she didn't want to look at him or reply to his words with the same affectionate tone he had used.

"I don't think this is the good place to talk at," Estelle responded before holding back to Magnus's arms.
