Slave of the Raven Prince

"Your Highness, I searched everywhere. But I cannot find any herb to cure our queen. Her condition is stable for now, but we don't know what that slave girl has used to poison, her highness. Our prince has her under his control. But she refused to reveal the truth" a healer shared with the Raven king, Cadmus Raven. Cadmus is restless. His wife and his queen Irina, who is a good soul was attacked when she was coming from a party hosted by the Nester Clan dragons. The Nester Clan are the grey dragons. Raphael found his mother lying in a pool of her own blood and a girl is holding the sword with which Irina was stabbed. That girl is bathed with the blood of his mother. Raphael became furious. He would have killed that girl then and there, but he need the name of the poison which she used on that sword to paralyze Irina. The Raven Prince is the most powerful and feared among all the dragon clans. No one has the potential to stop him or go against him. He is just twenty-five, but drago

"She is not dead yet. I paid you for nothing" a man in a black cloak growled at another man. Both the men are wearing black cloaks, and are having a heated discussion under the blanket of darkness in a remote place. "She is not just anyone. She is the queen of the Raven clan. If the Raven prince gains a hint of our betrayal, he will kill us with his bare hands. Haste will only ruin our plan" the other one snapped right back, not caring that the man with whom he is speaking holds power in the royal court.The first one is becoming restless."Fine, do whatever you want but kill her soon," he said impatiently."Alright, I will try to kill her soon" the second one promised.On the other hand, in Windsor high, Valarie is taking books from her locker for her next class, when someone came and stood beside her. Her body became tense. "Hey" a soft masculine voice greeted her.She relaxed and her heart skipped a beat. She recognizes his voice. He is the only person who is kind to her. "Hey"

'You know nothing about me 'Raphael kept thinking about what Valerie has said to Tyson Nester. Not only Tyson, no one knows anything about her. She is a mystery. She appeared out of thin air and he found her pulling a poisoned saber out of his mother's stomach. He can never forget that day, which changed everything for him. He was supposed to take the Raven crown. But after what happened to his mother, he refused to sit on that throne until she recovers. But as the days passed by and Valerie refused to tell about what happened that night, his anger and resentment towards her increased to the point where he began to hate her. Despite what his mind thinking against her, he became obsessed with her. What she does, whom she talks to, what she eats, what she wears, he took control of everything.'I deserve everything 'He rubbed his face feeling frustrated."What do you mean by that? Did you hurt my mother intentionally and regret it now? But what about when you refused my claims when i a

The next morning, Valerie woke up feeling fresh and with a beautiful smile on her face. The chirping of the birds, the soft breeze kissing her, the soft rays of the sun gifting her a new day. She looked around the forest feeling so relaxed and peaceful. She use to carry the weight of what happened that night in her heart. The guilt and the sadness refused to leave her, no matter wherever she is. But now, she is finally free of her guilt as the queen recovered and she is finally free from the heavy shackles of her past. Valerie doesn't have a penny to her name, nor does she have a plan of action to survive. She also knows that she might not get a job or a place to stay until she has that pendant around her neck. She touched that pendant with her fingers. An image of Raphael popped into her mind, which made her shudder with fear. She took a choppy breath. "I am glad that her highness queen Irina recovered Prince Raven. I am not angry about how you treated me. Because I can understand

By the time Tyson came back with water, he did not find Valerie anywhere. But he did not search for her, because he could feel the raw power still pulsing in the air, which made the fine hair on his body raise. He understood where she has gone. "Why did he send her away and now why did he take her back? This Raven prince is a mystery. Princess Tasha is vying for his attention for as long as i began to notice girls. But he barely looks at her. So many other women who are beautiful and who come from rich and powerful backgrounds are ready to jump into his bed if he snaps his finger at them. But here he is, running after a nobody like Valerie. He is her tormentor and her protector. I wish that she is safe" he thought out loud. Tyson is jealous of Raphael, who has what he wants. In the Raven Palace, "What happened to her?" Raphael asked the healer who is checking Valerie. The royal healer is one among the very few people who know why Valerie is taken as a slave by the Raven prince.
