In the village of Asra, where everyone had the same physical features, was plagued by a beast of the forest. Their only option was to sacrifice the girls of the village when they came of age. One village girl was different from the rest. Growing up with the hatred of the villagers, orphan girl Raven spent most of her time in the forest. She befriended the beast that plagued her village. But what will happen when it's her time to be sacrificed to him?

The Lost Heir

I sat opposite the bed, just watching her. It's been three days since I bought Raven to Raum. Three days and no change. Whatever she was going through, she wouldn't let me touch her anymore. The first day she was unconscious, I was able to touch her and clean her as best as I could without violating her privacy. But after that, I couldn't get near her. The closest I got was by the edge of the bed. From the moment I reached out to touch her, a pulsating energy lashed out at me, putting up a shield like defense around her. 


 After it happened the first time I immediately spoke to Ronove of it. His reasoning was that her body was protecting itself from anyone who might want to take her power while she was in her weakened form. I won't deny I reacted badly when he told me that. I punch him. But it wasn't even his fault. I was just a little bit more that hurt that Raven would defend herself against me. But after I calmed down I understood why.
