Damsel In Distress Books Novels & Stories

The door opened again, letting in a sweet, cloying perfume and a chill, cutting voice: "Oh… I heard our honored guest was injured." Dane swept in. Soft brown curls like waves, a white fur-trimmed coat draped over narrow shoulders. Her smile was gentle; her gaze was a needle. "I heard there was an intruder and someone got hurt.

However, at the center of this accordance, a metallic smell is forcefully blending itself in the surroundings. A woman, drenched with what it seemed as her blood, lay flat on the ground. Disheveling the symmetric arrangement of the pointy grasses that grow from it. Her back started arching as she groaned, squeezing her head hard.
