The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 93 - We Meet Again.. To Part Forever
He pulled away and smiled. “The day does not wait. We must hurry.”“Of course. Lead the way.” With that, they continued their journey. Just as Belladonna had suspected, Eli didn't take her to Kestra’s corpse. He had taken her to Kestra, who was leaning by a tree waiting for them.Her ears perked the moment she heard them move closer and a smile crossed her lips. “We meet again,” she stood away from the tree and turned to them, “Little Girl.” Suddenly, a red globe made of ice trapped the three of them within it. Belladonna panicked slightly. She had been prepared for this, still, the fact that this was real was different from just suspecting it to be real. It didn't help that she was now trapped in the same space with her. Could Lytio and the witches break into this Ice globe?By Ignas, it was hard to breathe!All this did was remind her of the Red Moon. She pulled away instinctively but Eli’s grip around her wrist was too tight she couldn't escape. “You said she was dead!” K
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 94 - A Silent Farewell
The world stopped. Hers did. It was so silent and so loud at the same time, it felt deafening to the point that she was nothing but numb.She could feel the warm liquid that spilled down the dagger and dripped into her palm. Tears welled up in Eli’s eyes and he smiled, as he moved her hand away from the dagger to hold his necklace. The hardness of the wooden pendant made her feel something.Feel everything. Too fast, too much!Tears ran down her cheeks and a whisper slipped past her trembling lips. “No.” Her heart was racing too fast. She glanced at the dagger and up at him quickly. If she were to pull it, wouldn't that make things worse?!What was she supposed to do?!By Ignas, what?!“N—no! Eli, stay! Please, don't do this to me!” He tried to speak but he couldn't. Blood dripped from the corners of his lips and from his nose. Words poured out of her mouth, just as tears rolled down her cheeks. “NO! Live for me! Give me back my string! Why are you so greedy?! It was my death!
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 95 - Grief Of An Unknown
Trigger warning - Grief. (Please read with caution, this chapter contains a very sensitive subject.)__________There was a lady in a white flowing robe, with long silver hair, and a dagger dripping with blood etched into her stomach with her hand over it. She extended her other hand to Belladonna and whispered something in a language that she seemed to understand despite not having ever heard it before. Belladonna's hand held the lady’s outstretched own, something surged through her at their contact and she woke up. She was drenched with sweat, her heart was racing wildly and her breathing was fast and ragged. It was dark and the room she was in was lit with a lantern. There were people in the room too, standing at either side of her. “You are awake,” Zesika, the one she recognized in this room, said. “How are you feeling?” Belladonna parted her lips to speak but slowly she frowned, as she remembered everything. Tears welled up in her eyes. “Where is Eli?” She asked instead,
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 96 - With You
Trigger warning.______“Are they dead too?” She asked.He closed the door and he went to her, where she was seated on the floor. Sadness swindled in his eyes, as he knelt in front of her. “No. They are not in the Realm, he knew I would go there. But they are safe, I promise you. A shifter would never hurt his mate.” “And Arlo?” “Aniya loves Arlo, Ikrus will not hurt him.” Belladonna nodded, exhausted, pain sinking into her chest. “I hurried back.” He held her wrist where the bracelet he had given was still on. “I felt you needed me.”“Eli is dead. You must hate me. I know you loved him.”“I don't hate you. Nothing was your fault.”“Why are you offering your sympathy to your brother's killer? He died for me, he died in my place and my body couldn't even keep his child alive.”Child?“I killed both of them, they are dead because of me!” He pulled her into an embrace, holding her while her body shuddered with tears and grief. “I don’t deserve to live.” “You did nothing wrong.”
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 97 - At The End Of A Tunnel
“Maybe things would have turned out differently, maybe Eli would still be alive, maybe our child would be alive—”“Eli made a sacrifice,” he held her head between his palms, commanding her attention, “knowing fully well what it would entail. He laid down his life for yours. He wanted you to live.”Belladonna blinked at those words. Eli wanted her to live. “You did not kill him.”“But— but my hand was on the dagger and I—”“You did not kill him, Nightshade.”“Let me speak, Alaris!” She yanked herself away from him. “Let me be mad at myself!”Silence fell between them and his hands fell to either side as he watched her scream and pull her hair, breaking the silence. “Ahhhhhhhh!” Her eyes were filled with tears, his eyes glistened with the same. A grieving person trying to console another. How would that even work?“Alright then. My Eli…” she wiped her tears away aggressively as if annoyed that it was even there. “He made such a great sacrifice, the least I could have done for him
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride Volume 3 : Into The Realms (Chapter 1)
The Lycans’ Realm.The double doors of the small hall were thrown open with force, the black -robed men who sat in a circle, in the middle of the hall turned with annoyance to look at whosoever it was that was bold enough to interrupt their meeting. “Who dares—” one began to speak but his words vanished when he saw who it was. “The Alpha's son.”“He has returned.” “Impossible.”“Gamma! You are here! You are welcome!” The one who had spoken first said again, as he walked away from the circle and rushed towards the door. “Where is The Elder Superior?” Ikrus fired, the female in his hand was bleeding and the child was weak, the portal that brought them here had been merciless to them, he had no use for the Elders’ silly pleasantries.“He is meditating in the High Room—”Without waiting to hear any other thing, Ikrus rushed to the High Room, only to find two guards by the door, stopping him.Stopping… him?!“The Elder Superior is not to be disturbed—”“Step. Aside.” He gritted. When t
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride Chapter 2 - A Blood- Made Promise
The fire in his father's eyes vanished, his wolf’s presence drew back into his mind, disappearing from the surface completely as silence took over the room. “I did it for us.” His father's shoulders dropped. “For you, for her. For all of us!”“Including your antics to keep me trapped in the Human Realm till my death? You lied to me that the Elders would summon me home, but a Moon passed, and nothing! Was that for me too, father? Did you do that for me?”The Alpha shrugged. “You have become a burden. You wreak havoc everywhere you go. Unfortunately, you are here now.” He chuckled, a sound devoid of humour. “It would have been good riddance.” As much as Ikrus had grown a tough sink to his Father's usual words, these ones seemed to hurt differently. They went past his hardened surface and sank straight into his heart. “I don’t deserve that, I did nothing to you.”The Alpha sank into his throne. “You were dividing my army!”Ikrus chuckled, darkly. “I did no such thing but earned their

Please Note - An asterisk before the dialogue means the words are being said in another language.________She trembled, her eyes begging. A monster. A Monster!A beast that would kill her!Her mind repeated over and over again. There were claw marks on his face, deep painful lines engraved into his skin, and his eyes… they looked wildly different. There was blood, so much blood.Why was he covered in all that blood?!Tingling feelings spread where his hand met her skin, but her fear was overpowering. It was all she could feel. His eyes seemed to communicate with her and she gave jerky nods to assure him that she would stay silent. He pulled his hand away from her and the first word that slipped out of her lips was a whisper. “My son—” she begged, keeping her eyes fixed on him while she spread her hands around her in a desperate search for Arlo. Her hand touched something —no, someone on the bed. Her son!She pulled Arlo into her arms quickly, pressed him to her chest securel
