*ON HIATUS*
Hotaru is the youngest child of the Shogun and the best warrior in her clan. Her village lies at the base of a mountain where a dragon lives. Every season, the villagers give the dragon offerings for peace and protection.
They told her it was for the good of the village to leave the dragon offerings. They told her that the dragon protects the village from bandits, enemy invasions, and rogue samurai.
They. Are. All. CRAZY!
When no one will listen to her, she sneaks out to slay the dragon herself! When she enters his lair, she executes her plan.
She thought her plan was foolproof and had calculated everything that could go wrong.
What she hadn't planned on was getting captured.
For years, Akahiko has watched Hotaru grow from a young lady to a beautiful woman. A prophet once said that the woman who tried to kill him would be his destined bride. Coming into his lair so that she could kill him might have been her plan, but Akahiko's was to trap her so he could marry her.
Convincing Hotaru that he is not a threat to her village and that they are destined to be together could take all of his powers to accomplish.
Especially with his rival constantly trying to take Hotaru from him.
