The Dragon King's Chosen Bride Chapter 134 : Punishing Flames
Trigger warning: A little physical violence. Death too, maybe."I touched her! Did everything you would ever imagine and she loved it." He yelled, pulling against the chains that bounded him and making no progress. Someone had hit him from behind earlier and he had passed out. His head was aching and his whole body was in pain from how tightly the chains hugged his skin. He had woken up to see himself in a dungeon and soon afterward, he had been dragged here. Into this dark, empty, place. The only light was the torch in the King's hand that reflected on his golden mask. "She screamed my name. Told me she wished I was you and she didn't have to pretend to tolerate you just so you wouldn't kill her. You monster!" He struggled to stand up from the laying position they had pushed him into. It was uncanny to watch the King so still in front of him, his mask putting him at a great disadvantage in gauging his reaction to his words. Did he believe him?He couldn't figure it out. "Just

"She is my sister!" Someone's voice cut into the room. "Let me in!"There was a groan and the sound of someone stumbling in. Belladonna held her head, blinking as Aniya barged in, with Arlo placed against her chest, one hand on his back to hold him in place. "You are awake! You are fine." She heaved a sigh of relief and Belladonna frowned, standing up to her feet, fighting against the swaying floor to hold her ground. She could feel the headache banging in her head when she stood up and she pressed her hand against her forehead to find it wrapped in a bandage. What happened?The guard rushed in, apologizing to Belladonna, as they attempted to drag Aniya back outside but Belladonna stopped them."I told you I was her sister." She mumbled to the guards who were left with no choice but to leave the room. Then she walked closer to Belladonna who was standing by the side of the bed. "I was so scared when I found out what happened. I was--" she paused, sniffling. "Lytio deserves whateve

"It was a mistake. It happened once, then twice, and more times till it became a habit. It was a secret that would have cost him his position if people were to find out, especially his wife. It had to happen."Belladonna was not moved by her tears but she was shocked by the truth. Truly, such a secret would have cost the now-dead Village Head his position, since his wife's family had been the one with the royal blood to begin with, and he had simply married into it. But this still didn't make sense!"If you were already pregnant, why did you have to do all that?" She took a step forward but halted immediately when she felt like her head had swayed on her neck along with that step she had taken. You wouldn't have been qualified for the Choosing Ritual. You would be with child and a woman with child cannot take part in the ritual.""I had to save my reputation! If by keeping my mouth shut, I save the Village's Head's reputation what about mine? People will call me names if I can not pr

"You should start taking off your dress."Belladonna frowned, attempting to move away from him, but finding her feet refusing her command, her whole body was, in fact, refusing her command. Eli did not observe her nervousness and if he did, he didn't show it as he went into the room and placed his mask on the bed. He moved through the space like he owned it, it was a sight to behold. One Belladonna could not fully appreciate because of her racing heart. He looked back at her and arched her a questioning eyebrow."You should have undressed by now, Donna.""All of it?" She managed to ask and he frowned, looking at her with deep assessment."That gown especially. You have to change that, it is stained with dirt." He covered the distance between them in three large strides and held her wrist, leading to her wardrobe. "Did you fall on your way to the den?"Belladonna's brows knitted into a line as she tried to remember if that had happened. Had she?Oh, she had!She had fallen, but it a

"You are free to go." The words had come to him from the darkness and Lytio doubted his ears.They must be hearing things wrong, or were they?That voice was unmistakeably the King's and there was no one else in the whole of Ignas that wore the kind of mask he wore to cover the monster that he truly was.Something he had failed terribly to do. Some could still see him for what he was and Lytio was amongst those that refused to be fooled by whatever illusion he wanted to create with the ceremony and inviting all the village heads. Lytio was no fool. If he was such a saint, he wouldn't need to pick up a bride every year. Besides, where were the other brides, and if this was just a way to pick the future Queen, what had he done to the rest that failed his test? Fed them to his dragon or fed on them like the monster that he was. He was no idiot. His Bell wasn't safe with him. She wasn't safe here!Lytio had been awake for a while. When he had first woken up, the darkness, the putrid

There were so many strange things happening tonight.His freedom was the first. His actual freedom!It was the strangest. Lytio had expected to be struck down while he left the dungeon or lead to the Execution Ground afterwards, or pulled right back behind bars but none of that had happened. Instead, he had, indeed, been set free. The other strange thing was the presence of two Royal Physicians that were waiting for him, along with his family, to go to Inaymi.It was puzzling for many reasons.They had Physicians in Inaymi, why did the King have to send Physicians along with them?It wasn't like they had done something of great value that he had gifted them two of his best Royal Physicians as a show of gratitude. If nothing, their presence at his ceremony had brought him nothing but trouble.Before Lytio left though, he had asked if he could at least see Belladonna, but the guard that had taken him down to the carriage had not said a word to him despite his pleading and his attemp

A knock came at the door and Eli straightened up.That only meant one thing. His messenger had returned. After all, his messenger was the only one that knew for certain that he was here. This room was after all not his study but a random room he had chosen to hide away from his Donna till he had achieved his aim. He knew that if he spoke to her, he would somehow reveal his plan and she would beg him to do otherwise. She wouldn't understand why he needed to be punished, what setting him free would encourage the others to do. She would maneuver her sympathy into a good speech and he would have no choice but to agree or argue with her when she was done. It would have made all these a lot more difficult.It was hard to refuse her. The door creaked a little as it pushed open."Your Majesty." A voice greeted him and he didn't bother to look up, instead he acknowledged him by pointing to the empty space, on the desk, he was seated behind.Then a small box was placed in front of him and

He shrugged. "He touched you.""So you severed his hand?""What?" She couldn't see his face but by now, she had come to know that he would be wearing a light frown beneath that mask. "You were not expecting that I would just allow him to go scot-free after what he did to you, were you?""You could have just locked him up in one of your many dungeons to teach him a lesson that takes an important body part from him forever.""His presence was tiring." He ran his fingers through his brown hair that was so dark, sometimes it got mistaken for black, his nails clicking against his crown as he did that. "I wanted to get rid of him as soon as I could.""You can't just go severing people's hands like that, Eli.""Why not? He attacked you. He attacked my Bride, his future Queen."She bit her lips."You've made him handicapped.""I kept him alive as you wanted, that is what matters. He should be grateful that I did, the ones that had boldly made the same mistake as he did, did not live past the

A pregnant woman's unwanted friends were swollen feet. Eli would usually help her massage them just as he was doing now. She was reading a book to him and he listened with rapt attention. His paintings adored the room, a piano at one corner, her sewing equipment at another corner with two studies joined to the room.He chuckled at something she read and she rolled her eyes. She had become quite irritable lately, little things would get on her nerves. It was just an interesting change to watch, especially because food was usually the cure, all kinds of food in their weirdest combinations. He had tried one once, it was terrible. She snapped the book shut. “By Ignas, do go on. I take back my laughter.”She seemed to have something else on her mind though. “Do you think I’m fat?”He smiled, “Like I always say, you are not fat, you are just pregnant.”“So you would want me like this?”He chuckled, the sound throaty as he buried his face into the crook of her neck. He moved quickly, she c
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 146 - It Is Us
Eli and Belladonna had come a long way. After death pays a visit, who would expect a joining ceremony?The trail was only hours ago and everything still felt shocking to Belladonna. She was the Kore and Eli was the right-hand man to the UnderLord. She was no longer a ghost but a High Realm that could move from one realm to another, and grant to only those who deserved it a second chance at life. She was a Kore with no realm of her own but one she must build from scratch. The Fate had dissolved the Kore’s realm after they based their judgment on the previous one. Luna and Ama had promised to help her in all ways they could and Belladonna was grateful for the offer. She was more excited about her ability to move from one realm to another though. She couldn’t wait to see her sister, Arlo, and Alaris even though they might not be able to see her. As Eli had told her, the UnderLord didn’t have a right-hand man for a very long time. Many Thanatos had been trying to acquire the position.

“She passed two tests!” Ama sprung up from her seat., “There must be something—““You are not one of this council,” the Ghost High Being turned to her sharply, “so keep your voice out of the decisions.” Belladonna's eyes widened. Two tests! So Eli—- Ah by Ignas, she had been right. Where was Eli? Why hadn’t they let him come in yet?Ama smirked, “Still holding a grudge, Phosi? I see.”“Passed the two tests? It is obvious that she has failed. The rules are the rules,” The Sea High Being spoke, “she has failed. Pass the judgment, I have places to be.”Failed? Belladonna felt that painful jolt in her heart. What were they even talking about?!The hall seemed to share the same confusion as Belladonna, they whispered amongst one another. “Failed?!” Luna snapped. “How did she fail? It is not her fault that her soul didn’t align——““The rules are the rules! And you are not a part of this Council, stay out of it!” The High Being of the Sea snapped. “End this already,” he said to the Fates,
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 144 - The Trail
The days that followed were fast and the training was tedious, Luna helped as much as she could, probably more than any mentor ever would. Life in the Moonrealm was wonderful, but for the things that shattered her peace. After training in the Moonrealm for two moons, Luna had not-so-pleasant news for her. Eli was to undergo a test too, a single test.“He has to fight the UnderLord and defeat him.”“Who will train him?”“The UnderLord.”There was no way the UnderLord would train Eli enough to be able to defeat him. “He chose him to be his master.”Belladonna paused. Eli was definitely plotting something.“Also, the failure of one is the failure of both of you.”Belladonna blinked, the times and the trails were against them but Eli was no fool. He definitely had something planned. ——-——-[TRIAL DAY]The first thing Belladonna saw when she stepped into the hall was a woman on her knees screaming in agony, while three faceless people with the staff in their hands stood around her, the
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 143 - Preparation
Preparation“It is believed that holding the title of the Kore is a curse and there is a reason for that. Everyone that becomes the Kore always has a terrible end.” Luna paused as if considering her next words before she finally spoke. “Reincarnation should be beautiful, not filled with so many problems. Reincarnation and second chances, do you not think so, Belladonna?”Belladonna nodded, wanting to know about the Kore already, but instead of continuing with what she had to say, Luna drew a line in thin air, and a floating lightly illuminated map unraveled between them. There were different floating objects on the map, probably to signify places. “For your third test, you must be chosen as an apprenticeship for one of the Realm Lords.”“Chosen?”“It is quite tricky as it is your soul that chooses for you and if the Realm Lord of the one your soul along with thinks you are fit, then you will have passed the third test.”“I don’t understand. Something seems to be missing. What about t

“What?!” Belladonna yelled, grabbing Ama’s wrists tightly with rage. “How could not tell me?!”“How dare you disrespect me?!” Ama snapped her hands away from Belladonna’s grip, fury blazing in her eyes as she started getting bigger, losing the frame she had fitted herself into. Belladonna stayed firm, her anger refusing her to feel fear. How dare they drag Aniya into this? How dare they? If she had known, she wouldn't— By Ignas, she wouldn't have done this!To ruin another’s life for the sake of her happiness? Never!No.Then Ama stopped, looked at the castle, and was back to normal in a flash as if a thought had flashed into her mind to make her reconsider. “I will spare you the wrath of my mate only this once. You will not disrespect me again,” She said firmly but those were words Belladonna couldn't hear.They sounded like echoes in the background. Anger changed into fear, not for her but for Aniya.She fell to her knees and wept. “You must reverse it. Please, I am begging. Ask f

“Eli.” Tears were streaming down her face now.Finally, they could touch but this moment wouldn’t last forever, and they intended to exploit it for as long as they could.“Do you love me, Donna?” His hand cupped the side of her face.“You know I love you.” She slipped her fingers through his hair which had grown longer than she remembered. She had certainly not seen all of the real him when he possessed Jyris’ body. Now, he looked so different. “By Ignas, I do. I love you, Eli.”“And I love you too. No amount of this torture, nor of passage of time will take that away. I grant you the permission to forget me. You need not feel any guilt, it will be the best way of loving me.”Belladonna wiped her tears away. “It is ironic, you begged me to choose you in Gaya’s garden and I did not, and now that I want to choose you, you are begging not to.” The words spilled quickly out of mouth, as they tried to make the best use of their borrowed time.A glimmer of a smile snaked into his eyes. “It
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 140 - Lovers Meet
The journey to Eli’s dungeon felt like a repeat of past events, it was like a flash of what had happened after the Red Moon Ritual, a reminder of the time Alaris had led her to his dungeon. She had followed Alaris with worry and love for him in her heart, then she found him in chains and finally, she left his presence betrayed, sad, and a grounded hatred for him.It felt sickening to be in this type of situation again though under different circumstances. She wished it was over, she wished she had seen him and saved him. She heard his voice before she saw him. A shout filled with agony. Her heart clenched with pain as she prepared herself to see the worst. Ama stopped walking and Belladonna who was following her did the same. Why had they stopped? She couldn’t see Eli anywhere, in fact, she could barely see her surroundings; she could still hear his voice though, and that in itself was too painful to bear. What type of torture were they putting him through? Suddenly, the growls of
The Dragon King's Chosen Bride 139 - Falling Into Place
The next thing Belladonna knew, her blindfold was ripped away from her and she was tossed roughly to the floor, her hands and knees bearing the brunt of the action. She expected pain but that never came. Oh, of course.The room was lit with red dim lights, however for Belladonna who had stayed in the dark for too long, the light felt blinding. The structure of the hall seemed like a throne room but it was of such an intricate design that she had no time to access it, the only thing that caught her eye was the strange, massive, dangling bed-like structure with curtains, connected with a chain to the roof of the hall; she could only assume that, it was too dark to see into the distance above. She rose to her feet and froze when she heard growls and gnashing behind her and she turned to look back, frightened. This beast, she had seen it before. Four-legged with three heads of mighty wild dogs, rough rocky skin with visible maps of the lava contained within. Vicious and ready to kill.
