Three generations of siblings, all with the same secret shared between them though they don't always know it. And it stars with four well-known words: once upon a time.
This was lightly inspired by a Chinese legend about a boy and a magical pearl that a kind friend introduced me to.
I always try to write something similar to legends, as I like their simplicity, how a story doesn't necessarily needs to be told with +10k words. And I hope this one worked relatively well.
For once, I don't have much comments about it. It's just a short, simple and sweet story meant to be read as a feel-good family fable.
I hope you enjoy!

The Golden Dragon's Hoard
Astraeus, a baby dragon, escapes from his old coven and stumbles upon a little shop that he spends months stealing from and hiding in to survive. The witch and familiars who live there are... strange. They know he takes from them but don't put up different wards, don't do things that could hurt him. They know that he has a hide out in the aster tree, that he lives close-instead of getting rid of him and forcing him to move, they visit him. Talk to him, leave him things, they're kind. Different. Stranger than any other witch or familiar he's ever met. Stray is not used to things that don't hurt. The gentleness is terrifying. He'd rather stay away from them than learn why they don't have sharp tongues or bruised knuckles. However, on the night of a bad storm, he gets trapped inside of the shop, trapped with kind strangers. After getting caught, he discovers another dragon. He learns that life is not meant to be painful. He learns that he can be loved. He's allowed to want things with them. To eat, to not fear the cold, to live instead of survive. Everything changes and Stray is determined to make them his hoard, to make it complete.Complete
~Innocent Demoness~
Femi's life was always quite chill, even as Satan's daughter. She wasn't the typical evil demon everyone thinks she is. But things are starting to get a lot more hectic and she is finally starting to become a true demon. "Then all I felt was rage. Rage because they were ruining my time with my mates, rage because they were messing up my really peaceful life as Satan's daughter, and rage because they were hurting people around me. All I saw was red, and before I knew it, my horns and tail were sprouting. It hurt like f*cking hell. During that, somehow the ground had started opening up because of me. I didn't know what I was doing but it was happening. There were flames coming from the cracks on the ground, and I recognized them as hellfire. "Hell's nature wants you to use its power," said Dimona, shocked. My eyes widened. Hellfire was extremely deadly. Any living thing that touches it dies. That's why it's only found in the barren parts of Hell as it's too dangerous to have in the actual Hell city. I calmly collected my thoughts and agreed. I had nothing to lose. I wanted to put an end to this madness. The flames rose even higher and before I knew it, they were hurling towards me."Complete![Returned, Volume 1: The Thread Beyond The Transpired Sun [READ DESCRIPTIONS]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/344176292-256-k208336.jpg)
Returned, Volume 1: The Thread Beyond The Transpired Sun [READ DESCRIPTIONS]
A group of 5 growing up in different parts of the world living with different conditions crossed paths when doing their own stuff. What do they seek? They fought dragons, demons with their newly found ability upon rediscovery of what's lost in time. In the advanced world they lived in, what else is there to discover? Love? Hatred? Power? The time has come to finalise the final work. As time passes, we grow old. As time dissolves, the world fades. Updates: The whole chapter three is out, and remember to stay tuned for the next chapter. This story will be released part by part. Each chapter, on average, will have 3 or more parts. I will not be releasing whole chapters in one part because it would be easier for me to refer to a page from a chapter rather than a whole chunk, and also, due to each chapter being lengthy if all parts were combined into one. Changes: After Chapter 1 and onwards, parts will have personal titles.
