Wandering Hearts

It is said that one can never defy fate. This notion proves its authenticity as Delaney finds herself caught up in the whims of her decided fate. Robbed of control over her own life, Delaney finds herself torm between feuds between mythical beings, creatures that have little or no regards to her emotions. As an abused child, Delaney grew up mostly detached from the world around her and when she decides to take control of her life, she chooses to be a bounty hunter to make a living and makes her own rules, living her life away from anything that causes her distress. But her world turns upside down as she becomes burdened by a murder accusation which almost causes her her life. At the day of her execution, she's saved by a dragon, to everyone's dismay, and is forced to live her life like a captive as she's yet again robbed of her own life. **** Broken hearts, misplaced souls and twisted minds. Even though our pasts may not predict our future, it will always be part of our future and present. Past mistakes, past heartbreaks, past miseries. They ruin us in a way that we are so scared of endings, that we always end up not beginning. And maybe all we need is a little sunshine. A little flower, and most of all... to forgive ourselves for things that we could and couldn't control.

Frustrated.

The journey to Delaney's room seemed longer than Merikh would have wanted and he kept clenching his jaw in annoyance and frustration. Delaney's breath on his bare skin was enough distraction, not to mention her fingers that kept massaging his hair while she mumbled some incoherent words in her drunken state.

"Open the door," he muttered and Delaney opened her heavy-lidded eyes to stare at his face. Instead of opening the door to her room, she grinned foolishly and Kept holding on to his neck.

"Open the door," Merikh hissed and she finally complied. He was quick to lay her on the bed but unfortunately for him, Delaney refused to let him go as she clung to him like a koala. 

Merikh's nostrils flared in frustration as he tried controlling himself, but he felt Delaney wrap her legs around his back and he almost cursed at her.

Delaney was still feeling like she was floating in the air, only this time, the air seemed to be tangible and very warm.
