Serpent Dragons

Lors du Tournoi des Herboristes, ma sœur adoptive, Valérie Duval, a remporté la gloire en volant ma recette. Mais contre toute attente, ce tournoi n'était qu'un prétexte pour choisir une épouse au jeune héritier des Hommes-Serpents, une race réputée stérile, cruelle et difforme. Le soir même, une proposition de l'union est arrivée : ils exigeaient Valérie. À cette annonce, mon fiancé, Adrian Berger, pris de panique, s'est immédiatement uni à elle par le lien conjugal. Valérie s'est dandinée devant moi avec arrogance, exhibant le tatouage lupin au bas de son dos : « Adrian est à moi désormais. Que comptes-tu faire ? Il ne te reste que trois jours avant ton vingt-cinquième anniversaire. Si personne ne t'épouse d'ici là, tu seras assignée aléatoirement à un de ces barbares nomades. » Mais elle se trompait. J'avais un autre choix. Je suis allée droit au salon où mes parents tentaient de rattraper les dégâts causés par Valérie et j'ai déclaré : « Puisqu'elle refuse d'épouser l'héritier du Serpent, je le ferai ! »

I was a descendant of Echidna, while Jonathan was the Capital City's most faithful Crystal Emperor devotee. In my past life, I eloped for love. For love, I threw away my chance to awaken my bloodline, shed my scales, and ascend to godhood. But… On the day of our marriage, Jonathan cut out my heart. He said I was cursed, that I was in the way of his true love's salvation. He wanted to use my Blood of Essence to pave the way for his true love's return to life. In despair, I could only watch as he held the prayer beads in his hand. His words were calm and deadly cruel. "Sinead, you should feel blessed to become Anna's sacrifice." When I opened my eyes again, time had mysteriously wound back. I had returned to one week before my wedding. I prayed in the rundown temple, my hand over my aching heart. The booming voice of my deity suddenly filled my ears, answering my desperate plea. "Descendant of Echidna, will you shed your scales and return to an ordinary life? Or will you give up love and achieve apotheosis?"

My best friend and I had been abducted by the Pendragon brothers—a duo consisting of a religious CEO and a top-billed movie star. We became their secret lovers against our will. "I'm pregnant, Lilith," my best friend said, tears glistening in her eyes. "Me too, Lindsay," I replied softly, caressing my belly. "But I won't go through with it." The brothers heard us. Their control tightened. They watched us during mealtimes, while we slept, and even during our bathroom breaks. We could not endure it any longer, so we fought back. In their anger, the brothers kept mistresses who resembled us. We thought we were free until one day, they found us. They called us homewreckers and hurled insults at us. They broke into our house, scarred our faces, broke our legs, and kicked us until we miscarried. It did not matter how much we tried to explain ourselves. They removed our clothes and paraded us in the street. Finally, the Pendragons arrived. They raised their marriage certificates and declared, "Lilith and Lindsay are our wives!"

Après la Grande Guerre entre les Humains et les Bêtes, un accord était conclu : le monde serait désormais gouverné par les Hommes-Bêtes. Tous les cent ans, une union sacrée était scellée entre les deux races, et celui ou celle qui donnerait naissance en premier à un enfant hybride deviendrait le dirigeant de la prochaine génération. Dans ma vie antérieure, j'avais choisi d'épouser Jordan Malet, le fils aîné du Clan des Loups, réputé pour sa passion fidèle. Je lui avais donné un Homme-Bête au sang sacré de loup blanc. Notre enfant était devenu le successeur désigné de l'Alliance Humano-Bestiale, et Jordan avait logiquement acquis un pouvoir absolu. Ma sœur Denise Vasseur, elle, séduite par la beauté des Renards, avait épousé l'aîné du Clan des Renards. Mais ce dernier, au cœur volage et à la vie dissolue, lui avait transmis une maladie et l'avait rendue stérile. Dévorée par la jalousie, Denise avait mis le feu à notre demeure et nous avait brûlés vifs, moi et mon jeune fils… Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, je me suis retrouvée le jour même de l'union entre Humains et Bêtes. Denise, plus rapide cette fois, s'était déjà glissée dans le lit de Jordan. Oui, elle aussi s'était visiblement réincarnée. Mais ce qu'elle ignorait, c'était que Jordan, derrière son apparente noblesse, cachait une nature brutale et violente. Il n'avait jamais été, et ne serait jamais, un bon partenaire !

My fiance's childhood friend, Tori Kerr, calls him 999 times, begging him to cancel the wedding. "I see it in the tarot cards. You can't get married this year. Cancel the wedding right now." Mikael Jardine hesitates and says, "Tori's tarot readings are always accurate. Let's just listen to her." My temper flares up immediately. The invitations are already sent, and the venue is booked. How can we just cancel it? Seeing that I'm angry, Mikael ultimately decides not to listen to her. In a fit of rage, Tori blocks him. I thought that was the end of it. But on the wedding day, Tori suddenly storms onto the stage. The first thing she does is shout at my mom and ask her to leave in front of the guests. Tori says, "I read it in the tarot cards last night. Your mom's rising sign clashes with Mikael's. She can't attend the wedding. Besides, your mom's just a cleaning lady. She doesn't deserve to be here!"

Dans notre vie antérieure, ma sœur Annick Dubost et moi avions recueilli deux œufs magiques. Le sien avait donné naissance à un Serpent de Glace, le mien à un Phénix de Feu. Elle s'était emparée sans vergogne de mon Phénix, mais l'Apocalypse de la Chaleur était survenue. Alors qu'Annick mourait de chaud, elle avait convaincu mon propre mari, ce Serpent de Glace, de m'étrangler. Mais le destin nous avait ramenés pourtant au jour de l'éclosion. Cette fois, Annick a choisi l'œuf du Serpent de Glace, certaine qu'il la protégerait de la fournaise. Mais elle ignorait un détail crucial : pour conserver ses pouvoirs, un Serpent de Glace devait boire du sang frais… chaque jour.

On the day we were to choose our magical guardians, my sister laid claim to the griffin's egg, leaving the serpent's egg to me. She boasted that, as the trueborn daughter of the queen and the eldest princess, she was destined to become the chosen heir. However, her griffin egg never hatched, what stumbled out was nothing more than a pitiful turkey. My serpent egg, however, nurtured by the waters of the enchanted spring, awakened into a true white wyvern. When I was named heir to the throne, my sister raised a cup in celebration, only to poison me with the wine and end my life. I opened my eyes again at the moment of choosing. This time, my sister snatched away my serpent egg, shattered the griffin's before my eyes, and imprisoned me on a distant isle: determined that I would witness her glory as the chosen of the white wyvern and heir to the crown. Yet when the white wyvern cracked its shell, destiny shifted. I bound myself instead to the Titan Ape, a beast mighty enough to bring the wyvern to its knees.

Many years ago, dragons discovered the supreme good that the Earth could offer to any of its creatures. A red gem, which the king of dragons named "The Heart of Magic" because of its shape, resembled a heart. The magic gem fulfilled their greatest desires. All the dragons in the world obtained a necklace with a small piece of the red gem that shone. All the dragons born afterward also carried the same necklace. Then, when the gem got stolen, this light went out of every necklace, and the dragons lost these magical abilities that the gem had given them. But before this could happen, after fulfilling these desires, the dragons used them against the humans, enslaving them, but when the gem got stolen, it was all over. Dragons are still looking for it, and humans wish never to be found so that they do not go through the same thing again. Princess Edith, after a family tragedy, she will be forced to go in search of the gem. Through the journey of investigation, she will discover that she possesses special powers that she did not know that she has until that moment. Drake is the Dragon King's son and will be secretly sent to help Edith seek the gem. Carrying his dark and heavy past on his back, he moves forward with his life with no regrets about his actions back then. Everything is about to change.

I was the second princess of the Phoenix Court. And I fell in love with a lowly black serpent. In my past life, just to be with him, I purposely picked that black serpent during the Sacred Bonding ceremony when we each chose our companion beasts. After that, we spent every night together. I didn't care what the whole clan thought. I was determined to marry him. But on our wedding day, that same serpent I'd given my heart to drove an arrow straight through me, killing me while I was three months pregnant. As I lay dying, I heard him hiss bitterly in my ear, "If it weren't for you, I'd have been with Seraphine by now. You should've died a long time ago." That's when I finally got it. All he cared about was power. And he'd been in love with my older sister all along—the sister who was next in line for the Phoenix throne. When I opened my eyes again, we were back at that same moment—the Sacred Bonding ceremony. Before everyone, he dropped to his knees and confessed he loved my sister. He begged not to be bound to me. The whole clan looked at me with pity. But I only smiled and pointed to a small white serpent resting quietly off to the side. That black serpent thought clinging to my sister would make him powerful. What he didn't realize was that only the one I chose would become the true heir to the Phoenix Court.
