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.

Issues arising.

The flight back to the dragon realm was a quiet and peaceful one. Merikh was in no mood to do flips in the air, and Delaney wasn't as excited as she had been earlier.

But despite the heaviness of the atmosphere, both of them were happy to have had that conversation, and it made them feel closer than they had in all the days they had stayed together.

Delaney was happy to find the 'reason behind action', and to know that though Merikh's cruelty was not justified, at least it was explainable, and he was already paying for his sins.

Merikh was happy to know Delaney's view on the whole issue, and the fact that she felt something for him. Whether it was pity or pure concern, he didn't care. All that mattered was that he now had her attention, and he was ready to take advantage of that and grow even closer to her.

It was still dark in the dragon world, and they both arrived in time when everyone was going back home from the party.
