A Damsel and Her Dragon
Yasmine had made a mistake. A costly, dire mistake. She'd whispered a plea in the darkness to a passing knight - save me from the dragon, and I will do anything you want - but she'd never imagined this outcome. It had been a shot in the dark, a final hurrah sort of thing, her last hope in escaping the tyrant clutches of the crimson drake who had kept her prisoner in a tall, inaccessible tower in the depths of a dark, mysterious forest. It was a tale as old as time, the Princess, held captive by some monstrous, ravenous beast that could only be bested by the greatest of heroes. Back then, Yas had believed that anything was preferable to the dragon and her captivity. Her daydreams had been of dashing heroes on beautiful white stallions come to sweep her off into the sunset, maybe claim her hand, and her kingdom, with a quick, romantic marriage. She'd been naïve. Humans, at their core, are selfish and covetous, and she should have known that if she gave her word, someone would eventually come to collect. Not out of the goodness of their hearts, no, she had been in the tower far too long for it to be that. They came for the payment. They came for her. Warning: Instances of non-consent and reluctance within the story, as well as graphic depictions of sex, violence, and gore. Mature audiences only.Complete

He knelt down beside her, and cautiously put a hand on her shoulder. She didn't look up; her sleeve was damp with tears. And... blood? "Hey, don't cry!" He winced almost instantly. "Jeez, that sounds like something my mum would say to me." She huffed a short laugh, but returned to gloom at once. "Why did you scream? Your dad was worried." He left out the part where he'd almost died of a heart attack. She didn't reply for a while. "It's - a long story," she whispered finally. "I can't tell you right now. It's got too many pieces of my past, and you wouldn't understand. But just tell him that... the Nahari have returned. For me." #strangerstolovers #friendstolovers #denial #past #revenge #war
