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.

A Princess With No Name

After leaving the presence of the King, the witch and the elf went their separate ways. Cornelia departed from the palace while Leeora sought for Ember to spend some time with her. Upon asking her whereabouts from the passing servants, Leeora got to know that she was in the main garden.

"That child must be excited to roam after getting to know that she can stay here for good," Leeora mumbled with a smile and went to the garden. 

Soon, Leeora found the girl clad in pink walking in the middle of the garden, holding the skirt of her formal dress in her hand and looking around at the beautiful flowers in full bloom. 

Contrary to human gardens Ember had seen in books, the garden in the palace didn't have manicured flower beds with a winding stone pathway in between. It had a more natural landscape, with multiple levels of small ivy plants and bushes and various trees that gave off a harmonious feeling that was pleasing to the eye.
