"Coff--ins," she stuttered, stumbling from the coffins towards Eli. Even with his mask on, she could read the expression that passed through his eyes, there was fading excitement but the shock she had expected to find, was absolutely lacking. She froze, inching away from him the moment she could command her legs once again. "Donna," he extended his hand to her carefully, like she was a child and he was scared of moving too quickly and startling her. "Come with me."Her heart dropped, his words confirming her suspicion. So, he knew about this.She balled her fists beside her, her heart racing, as the worry of her ending up in one of those coffins, crossed her mind. What if this was it?What if this was what the previous brides saw that brought them to their sudden disappearance?Wait, sudden disappearance?The existence of the coffins behind her weighed like a heavy knowledge in her head, the presence of the constructed wood almost suffocating, the fact that Eli was standing by the

Belladonna toyed with the dagger in her hand, one that Anok had given to her before seeing her to her door and stationing himself by it. She was worried about way too many things that she didn't think about what the consequences of him standing against the King might bring. It was surprising that Eli had easily let them go too. It made her feel uneasy, on top of how the discovery of the coffins made her feel.They had been empty but when she moved closer, she had sensed something in them, seen something too. She rubbed her fingers against her temple, as she paced around the room.She had not gone back to the King's chambers, it just didn't feel safe there anymore. A while later, there was a commotion outside the door. The King had sent guards to take Anok away, Seb had led them here and the look on his face showed that he was doing this by an order."What is going to happen to him?" Belladonna asked in panic. "Is he going to take him to the den?""I don't know, My Lady."Anok looke

The fact that she had forgotten the memory for so long did not sit well with her. It didn't seem like something that would have happened naturally. How many more things had she forgotten?For how long had this been going on?!"Are you alright?" Lady Kestra's voice floated to her ears and it was at that moment, she realized that she had been holding her hand in a tight grip, pulling her away from reaching her hair. She didn't even know when she had done that. Alright? No, she wasn't alright.She was realizing too many things at once, the pull from the depth of ignorance she had been sucked into was aggressive. The realization and knowledge that came with it, suffocating.She wasn't alright. They had done something to her. That must be it. Was it the King or Lady Kestra? She had to get rid of her, she had to be alone and figure this out herself. There must be something important about that dream and all the things she forgot, for them to have taken the memories away from her.She ha

She forced her eyelids open, as she grabbed the closest pen and paper she could find, to jot down everything she could remember, scared that if she didn't, then she would fall asleep and lose this memory too.The pen did not work.Arrgh, this pen never worked!Frustration threatened to bust through her, as she raised her hand to throw the pen across the room, but she stopped midair. This pen was a gift from the Market Square. There had been a commotion that night ---a family had tried to kill her --- and a boy had given it to her. She dragged in a long breath, forcing her eyes open, as she dismantled the pen.It never worked because that wasn't its purpose, and she was right. There was a piece of paper wrapped in it.A rushed drawing of three interlocked spiral lines was on it. It was the same tattoo she had seen on Raquel. She said it meant unity, but did it? Seeing this paper made her question it, along with the memories of a purple glow that flooded her mind. Maybe this would b

"Are you done?""Seriously?" A light scoff. "That was the softest I have ever spoken."She shrugged. Honestly, it almost had her.Almost. "I don't know. It sounded a little rough around the edges. Wasn't as hypnotizing as you thought it would be."A light chuckle echoed around her, one that sounded a little distant from her now. She relaxed her hold on her dagger, relieved that she might not have to use it eventually, besides the fact that she would be fighting against the invisible, she didn't even know how to wield the weapon. So, it was good this way. "A little bit of practice and I'll have you wrapped around my fingers.""In your dreams.""Your dreams, of course. Where else?"She gritted her teeth, walking away.His cocky attitude was starting to get on her nerves and if she wasn't in a dire situation right now, she would have plenty to say to that. "I don't have time for this foolery."He chuckled. "You've become difficult but when were you never?"Her feet dipped into the c

The shift had been fast. One moment they were at the beach and the next they were in Eli's little study. She could still remember how he had put her on a table and sealed his lips against hers in the previous room before he had brought her here on that little tour. He had told her he loved her and he had said she didn't understand. She hadn't thought too much about it then but now, she was suspicious. He had told her he loved her many times before that, was he lying before?Belladonna was quick to start her search for the book and the Bride Thief had said he wanted to check out the place. "Everything has changed. Not like I left it."He had said, before leaving. Maybe. It wasn't like she could see him. How exactly had he left the Castle though?Burnt to the ground with Eli's entire family in it. What about the servants, and others that had lost their lives in that fire?She just couldn't trust this man.If there was another way to find out the truth, she would have used that i

There was no place to hide. She watched in horror as the door swung open and Eli bolted in, heading straight for her. "Donna, I---" he paused instantly, his gaze moving from her sleeping figure on the chair and the one kneeling by her side. He didn't need to take his mask off, but she knew that look that flashed in his brown eyes. He had never looked at her like that before. "E---" she started to say, rambling for words to explain the situation, but he drew his sword and the blade felt like a threatening presence at the base of her neck. "Step away from her."What?!Did he not recognize her?"Step away this instant or I shall slit your throat!"The threat in his voice was as clear as day. He would do it.Just a little tilt forward and her head would be gone.It would be clean too. Severed.He stared at her like she was a complete stranger, like he had never seen in his entire life, like she was putting his entire being at risk and he would do anything to save it from her.Like sh

After a couple of checks, the Physician said something to Eli but with the distance between them, she couldn't hear it, although the fury in his eyes when he turned to her was enough explanation. The Physician certainly did not have good news and Eli believed she was responsible for whatever that was.Well, he was incorrectly correct. He approached her, every step promising doom. At that moment, she feared him. It was a foreign feeling, a way she had not felt even during the Choosing Ritual. This fear was just different. It was more cripply.A guard kicked the back of her knees and she fell to the ground, on her face, the impact painful.They pulled her to her knees immediately, her hands helped apart, while one yanked her hair backwards, so her gaze was fixed upward.Her teeth gnashed against one another in pain."You are one of them. The Eye." Eli said, his voice cold and hard. The Eye?That was the group of people trying to kill her, at least that was what she got from the man

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.
