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.

Can't Let Anyone Insult His Mate
As the three women were covered in heavy silence, Reya let out an exaggerated 'oh' as she attempted to change the mood. "By the way, I heard that last night there was a feud at the borders of the human territory. A few villages were attacked by the Wild Elf Clan with the support of the artefacts made by the Valley Elves, and aside from the human casualties, many houses were burned."
Ember felt her entire body shiver. "What? A-Aren't those humans residents of Agartha too? Isn't everyone living in harmony now?" Ember asked.
"It seems that way on the surface, Miss, but in the end, regardless of race, people are still people. People have emotions. Not everyone wants to move on, not everyone wishes to forget the past, and especially for those who have lost all of their loved ones, they would never be able to forgive how humans killed so many of our people through evil means.
