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.

Ember's Home

Morpheus and Aureus arrived at the Wood Elf Clan territory. As they flew over the treetops, Morpheus instructed his nephew. "Be careful. These tree spirits are sensitive to the intrusion of strangers."

"Tree spirits?" Aureus asked as he looked at those normal looking trees. 

"Hmm! They are not normal trees like what we have in Divine Eagle Clan territory. Wood elves live inside homes made in the trees with tree spirits. These trees have their own thoughts and instincts and can act according to them. Though they can not hear or talk, they can sense the things around them clearly. If they feel any threat, they don't bother to refrain themselves from attacking."

It surprised Aureus, "I have just heard it from mother when I was a child but I thought she was just making up a nice story to entertain me and then I forgot it like any other stories."

"Why don't you try going near them to check if those were simply stories or there is truth in them?"
