Bride of a Dragon

{Mature Content} ...”I told you once that only two things will have me - you and death”... In a world where dragons were worshipped and witches were hunted and killed for revolting against the throne, Levina, a green-eyed witch, has lived her whole life running away from the dragons and hiding her secret. But what happens when Levina falls in love with the only person she is forbidden to love_ The Crown Prince and heir to the throne of Arvenia. She tries to keep her secret from him, to remain at his side, but what happens when Lucien finds out that the woman he had cherished with his whole being is a witch? Will Lucien turn his back on his people and be with her, or will he be forced to kill the woman he loves with his own hands? ... Excerpt "My lord, she's here..." Lucien's gaze remained fixed on the window as if seeing it for the first time. He heard her light footsteps draw nearer. Those footsteps had become etched in his memory. In the past, he would turn around with a smile when he heard them, but this time, he did not want to. "Lucien..." her somber little voice spoke, and they bore a crackle as though she had been crying. He turned around, and as he had thought, her eyes glistened with tears. "Lucien..." she called again, and he gritted his teeth, purposefully looking away. If he continued to look at her, he was not sure he could stop himself from running to her. "Is it true?" The question had bogged him all night, and he wished, so desperately that it was a lie, that she was not what they said she was. That she was just his Lev. Silence filled the air, and he met her gaze. Tears streamed down her face, but still, she did not answer his question, but instead she smiled; "I love you, Lucien."

Let her go

"Come on, let's go to the stable. A horse race against your sweet old brother might just be what you need to feel better."

He took her hand and dragged her along, he did not want to give her an opportunity to say no. Cleopatra trudged behind him, hoping that the race would help distract her from Draven, no matter how temporal.

Throughout the walk to the stable, Lucien kept looking back at his sister to be sure she wasn't still sulking. She was not exactly wearing a smile, but he preferred that to her crying.

Neither Levina nor Draven saw Lucien approaching them. Levina was still weeping in his arms, like a child that just lost her mother, when Cleopatra pulled her by the hair and yanked her out of Draven's hand.

"What is going on here?" Lucien's livid eyes darted from Levina's soaked face to Draven's surprised face, with an underlying promise to cause havoc.
