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. All books are connected to each other but you can read them as stand-alone.

Following The Bird

When Ember stepped out of her chamber, her attention was on her dress rather than her surroundings. She had to carefully hold her long flowy skirt in her hands so she wouldn't trip over her dress. 

'Bear it for a day,' she consoled herself. 'From tomorrow onwards, I'll refuse to wear such a long dress.' 

Because her mind was focused on keeping herself upright, she thoughtlessly crossed the grand hallways without any particular direction in mind. She had seen a number of servants on the lower floors yesterday, but this particular part of the palace was empty, without a soul in sight.

'This is more comfortable for me, actually.'

The carpeted hallway had huge glass windows on one side which had their panels open, allowing plenty of sunlight and fresh air to enter inside the palace. With each step of hers echoing, those long curtains seemingly moved along it. 

Chirp, chirp?
