The sharp pain on her wet chest jerked her awake. Miracle darted her eyes around, only to be shocked by the clanks from her limbs tied to the stem of an oak tree. The shackles on her drained her energy every time she tried to break them apart. Red impulses flowing along the tree were weakening her cultivation. The dimly lit atmosphere laced with clamminess told her that this was somewhere she never wanted to be. "Love has always been my best friend." The cold, hard voice came through and rang in her ears before he walked into her view. "Because of love, I've never lost." His steps echoed. She tensed. Icy shudders ran down her spine when she saw the increase of claret complexities on his head. Half of them were from yesterday. From her friends who were still alive until yesterday. Miracle squeezed her eyes shut. She needed a plan. A solid one. Arlyaen shot her a wicked grin. "Love helped me kill the greatest white dragon. And now it's helping me kill the daughter of the greatest wh

Arlyaen jerked his hand slightly to the left, and the dagger swished past Melvin's bruised cheek, hitting the rock at the back. At that instant, it seemed as if time had stopped. Until the screechy laugh tore the silence apart. He had won the deal. Red chains on Melvin's head clinked as he struggled to push his body up from the ground. Drips of blood streaming down his face continued to echo. He flashed the white dragon a terrified stare, his cracked lips quivering to speak. "You shouldn't have thought you had an option from the very beginning," Arlyaen said with strong hatred laced in his voice, "white dragon." Miracle avoided his eyes. She knew she was officially repeating the sin her mother had committed. For a fallen angel, she was going to betray her species, her mission, and the entire of Long Sheng Jie. The evil Lord snapped his fingers. One of the hundreds of thumping capsules clicked open, dropping the raw heart onto his hand. It was the fifth bloody meal he had as far a

Any deeper was going to hurt her. He threw the poniard away. He couldn't do it. Not to her. "Don't do this to me..." he begged, pressing the pearl against her scaly chest. "Get in... Get in, please." But it wasn't obeying. "UGH! Damn it!" Melvin pulled her closer and buried his face in her neck, knowing it would only cause her more pain if he were to continue with the push. "D-Damn it…" He raised his head and stared up above, hating the fact that the dragon girl in his arms was fading away. The night sky was in total darkness, resembling the loss of hope in marking an end to the recurring mission. Right in the middle of the woods was the happening that mortals were never going to believe. Melvin sensed defeat. Nothing turned out as planned. The protectors of peace… were losing. Arlyaen walked to them, generating an electrified plasma ball in his hand. It was enlarging, giving off blinding sparks as the coruscating filaments extended from the center. "Owning the mortal world

Her tears came falling down like rain. She did stop the war, but not the separation. The scene turned harder to bear when Maddie, too, was distorting in shape. He raised his hand and stepped back, stopping them from getting any closer. 'Don't,' he mouthed. He had sought his revenge, and now he was ready to go. 'It's time to meet my brother.' His voice echoed as the last solid piece of him faded away. Born as a fallen angel, one shall die as a fallen angel—this was the principle Arlyaen planted in them since the day they were born. "Don't go?" Miracle whimpered, watching her tears fall through the translucent body in her arms. "I'm sorry..." Melvin pulled her closer for another deep, soulful kiss. "I love you... Melvin," she whispered. "Sorry that I've kept you waiting." He smiled faintly. "I'm glad I lost my memories..." "What?" "Never did I know what warmth was until you melted my heart of stone, Miracle." His eyes misted over. "If there's next life, I hope the world is full

Hello, my beloved readers! 🌸 Thank you so much for spending your time on Tears' Curse. I sincerely hope that you enjoyed reading it. Dragons have always been my favorite mysterious creatures, and this explains the birth of this story. Whether they are real in reality or otherwise, who are we to say? After all, there are a lot of things in this world that humans will never know. And I choose to believe in the unknowns. Sometimes, believing in them is what makes life worth living. For example, somewhere opposite the deeper side of the forest exists a place that humans are unaware of, and somewhere beneath the sea lies a different world that looks after the earth. Beautiful, aren't they? Some people may say that these thoughts are ridiculous and whatnot. Well, that's simply because they are too indulged in today's modern lifestyle and technologies. Nobody is right or wrong, because the truth will never be known. When you're tired of reality, take a short break and explore the wonder
