Steps of the Dragon Knight

The hero returns to the empire a dragon’s corpse dragged back. Armor askew. They trudge their way back body tired and broken. Home. They expect gratitude. They expect many things like a higher title. What they did not expect was to become the Royal Guard for the First Princess of the Ixmtaraza Empire. Isabella Desdemona. The hero is pulled into confusing politics and relationships within the castle walls. While without the empires converge and allies are made that could break the Ixmtaraza Empire. 18+ for excessive violence and other triggering content.

From the Ground Up

Chapter 27 

Breath leaves Isabella's lungs as she walks along the path in front of her. No one the wiser that she has left her compound. Sneaking out is the norm for her. Zarracen's appearance has made it harder to do and for the last few days sense meeting with her mom the knight's attention upon her has doubled. Videle was upon her like a blanket trying to cocoon her. 

The attention was lovely but a bit constraining. She needs to be able to move alone at times for her own sake as she does tonight. The only reason she could escape Zarracen's senses was due to tiring the knight out with magic training causing her to drain most of the Videle out of her leaving her exhausted.
