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.

Give My Horse Back

'So many orcs!'

Ember's nervous gaze found at least about twenty or so grayish green giants in addition to the group they met by the river. They were the orcs hunting for food outside their village, and the sight of all of these armed hunters gathering had caused the gloomy atmosphere within the forest to give off a dangerous smell. 

Morpheus signaled Ember to be quiet and stay back. 

Ember obediently kept herself hidden behind a tree while Morpheus continued on towards the young elf and young eagle, their figures  cutting a sorry figure amidst those monster-like creatures. From the looks of it, they were trying to talk to the orcs, but the orcs were trying to drive them away. For these territorial orcs, it was already a sign of goodwill that they were yet to raise their weapons against these two intruders.
