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. All books are connected to each other but you can read them as stand-alone.

Answer to 'Where' and 'Why'

"Get back to your senses," he said in a voice so cold and detached, it was the exact opposite of his earlier actions. "You promised me you will remember what you felt, so I believe you will keep your word."  He then stepped back after taking her hands off of his shirt and fixing his own tailcoat. 

Ember was flabbergasted. Once again, she felt overwhelmed and puzzled and lost. She didn't know what to do. She didn't know what she did. It ended so abruptly, that she didn't even understand what just happened. Draven turned away and took several strides towards the other side of his study, giving her a brief moment of respite to get her bearings back and have a grasp of their situation. 

'She should have understood that, right?' he thought, convinced that this 'hands-on' lesson would be effective in showing her what the third stage of the mating bond meant. However, because he had his back on her, he didn't see her facial expression.
