The Dragon Queen: Runaway Bride The Healer's Mark
"Maria..."Pandora's voice still sounded strange. I sat beside the bath, staring at my reflection in the water. The golden mark on my shoulder blade glowed beneath my skin, and every time I looked at it, my heart started racing all over again. Part of me kept expecting it to disappear. "It has to be a mistake."Pandora sat down beside me. "Well, It clearly isn't."I looked at her. "You sound very sure."She raised her wrist, showing me Astria's mark. "Because I've already been through this."Neither of us spoke for a few seconds. I touched the mark again. It was really warm and real. Mine.After all those days of watching dragons soar through the sky, after feeling left behind while everyone else seemed special, something had finally chosen me. A laugh escaped before I could stop it.Pandora smiled. "There she is.""What?""The Maria who talks too much."I splashed water at her. She splashed me back. That was how we ended up staying awake for half the night. We sat in my room talking
The Dragon Queen: Runaway Bride The Little Dragon
Maria's POV I seriously didn't expect a dragon to change my life. Again. The funny part was that I wasn't even looking for one.A few days had passed since I sat outside the palace kitchens feeling sorry for myself. I had mostly gotten over it. At least that was what I kept telling myself. That morning, I woke up before sunrise and wandered toward the kitchens.The palace cooks started preparing breakfast early, and I liked visiting them before the halls became crowded. They always had snacks. More importantly, they liked me.Those two things were connected. The kitchen was already busy when I arrived. People moved between ovens carrying trays and baskets. Someone was arguing about bread. Someone else was chasing a cook who had apparently stolen bacon.Everything seemed normal. Until something crashed. The sound came from the storage room at the back. Several cooks looked up. One of them sighed. "Not again."I frowned. "What was that?"The cook waved a hand. "Probably rats."The cras

Okay, I had to admit, life in the palace felt way different after Elizabeth left. The tension that had followed everyone for weeks seemed to disappear with her carriage. I mean, people literally smiled more and the halls felt…lighter.Even the servants seemed more relaxed. Nobody talked about royal marriages anymore. At least not in front of Valdanus. I considered that a victory.Astria considered it hilarious. "The prince sure does look happier."I glanced across the training grounds. Valdanus was speaking with Estevan while preparing their dragons. "He always looks like that.""No, he doesn't.""Yes, he does."Astria made a sound that told me she thought I was hopeless. I chose to ignore her. That had become a daily habit Most mornings now began with training.Unlike before, I actually looked forward to it. Learning from Astria felt completely different from training with swords and court instructors. Valdanus to be precise.The Dragon Queen never treated lessons like work. Everythi
The Dragon Queen: Runaway Bride Letting Go
I could barely slept that night. Cause every time I closed my eyes, I saw Seraphine standing over Elizabeth..I saw the fear on Elizabeth's face. The confusion afterward. Most of all, I kept hearing her question. Why would you save me?The truth was, I still didn't have a perfect answer. Astria was unusually quiet about the whole thing. That alone felt quite suspicious."You have any opinions.""I always have opinions.""You're hiding them."Astria laughed. "I wanted to see if you'd figure it out yourself."I rolled over in bed. "You're impossible.""Yet you adore me."I really didn't like how often she was right. The next morning started normally. At least, that's what I thought. I was halfway through breakfast when a palace servant hurried into the dining hall.He looked nervous. "Lady Pandora."I lowered my cup. "Yes?""Lady Elizabeth has requested a meeting."The entire table went silent. Maria blinked. Estevan stopped eating. Valdanus looked confused. I wasn't doing much better. "
The Dragon Queen: Runaway Bride All these years of Anger-Finally out.
Elizabeth Ravaryn had spent her entire life getting what she wanted. People listened when she spoke. Nobles respected her, even dragons admired her At least, that was how things were supposed to work. Now every conversation in the palace seemed to circle back to Pandora.Always Pandora and Astria. Pandora and the dragons. Pandora and the future.Elizabeth was tired of hearing her name. She stood in her chambers staring out the window while anger twisted inside her chest. Nothing was going according to plan anymore. Valdanus, the nobles, even the dragons. Especially the dragons.Her hands tightened against the windowsill. There was only one way to fix this. One final chance. If Pandora disappeared, everything would return to normal.Valdanus would come to his senses. The kingdom would move on. People would forget. Elizabeth repeated those thoughts until she almost believed them. That evening, she made her decision.---Meanwhile I hadn't felt this relaxed in weeks. The forest was quiet
The Dragon Queen: Runaway Bride The Dragon Queen's Chosen
The courtyard remained silent long after the dragons stopped roaring. Nobody seemed to know what to say. The glow beneath my sleeve had faded, but the memory of it lingered in every face around me. Nobles stared openly. Guards exchanged looks. Servants whispered behind their hands.I wanted the ground to swallow me. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Astria sounded far too pleased with herself. "You should see their faces.""I am seeing their faces.""Fair point."I rubbed my forehead. This was becoming her favorite response. The crowd finally began moving again, though nobody looked away from me. It felt like I had suddenly become the most interesting thing in the kingdom.I hated it. One older noble stepped forward first. His eyes were wide. "The mark..."He looked like he wasn't sure whether to bow or faint."Is it truly hers?"Nobody answered. Nobody needed to. The dragons already had. Word spread through the palace before sunset. By morning, it had spread through the city. By aft
