The Devil's Cursed Witch novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248 You Belong To The Phoenix

“…”

“…yes?”

“…give me…hand…”

The fragmented voices seemed to belong to a man and a woman.

“Raven…how does it look…?”

And the woman’s voice was the same one as the woman in his dreams.

“It’s good.”

Hearing the man’s voice, Draven recognized that it was his own voice.

As if the memory had further surfaced, the voices in his head became crystal clear. He could now properly hear the melodious female voice speaking amidst the laughter.

“I drew this little phoenix on your wrist so everyone will know you belong to me, that you belong to this phoenix. You are mine for eternity.”

“Hmm!”

“I am sealing this with my powers. No matter what you do, you won’t ever be able to get rid of it.”

“Hmm!”

Hearing this exchange, his heart constricted as if in pain and longing.

The voices disappeared and Draven gradually opened his eyes.

The more he stared at that newly appeared tattoo on his wrist, the more he felt confused.

‘That green-eyed woman gave me this tattoo? However, this mark has never shown itself up until now… so why did it suddenly appear?’

Draven continued to stare at the tattoo. ‘Is she really Ember? Everything seems to be pointing out that possibility.’

Afterwards, he stepped out of the bath and returned to his chamber after wrapping himself in a bathrobe.

Erlos had already returned by then and he was preparing the clothes for his master. Seeing Draven, he informed him, “Lady Cornelia responded to the summon and replied that she will be arriving this afternoon.”

When the Head of the Witches arrived at the palace, Erlos directed her towards the King’s study. Draven had been impatiently waiting for her, though this could not be seen in his expressionless face, as she was the only one who could answer his questions.

As usual, she greeted him formally.

“Cornelia Grimm of Honeyharbor Coven pays respects to His Majesty King Draven Aramis.”
