The Dragon's Bride (A Deal With A Demon)

Product Information

Hermione Granger, stalwart Head Girl of Hogwarts, bearer of detentions aplenty, giver of pinched looks, insistent warnings and the champion of beleaguered House Elves everywhere, was curled beside him in bed, seemingly fast asleep and very much naked. It was quite remarkable. The small, childlike part of him that never failed to be routinely surprised by magic and was sitting up and paying attention. I believe this is a standalone, but I would love another story with the characters! I want to know more about the magic of the world, and get to know the side characters better. I enjoyed it! After taking her to his home, he finds that she really doesn’t want anything to do with him, is obstinate, and argues with him constantly, but she gave her word and will keep it… but maybe not like he was thinking she would! She will be his Bride, but will make it as hard as possible on him! But he knows she has a lot of power and he has decided that he will help her awaken it, then send her home to live her life! He doesn’t need a wife! Another memory dislodged itself from the repository, this one even more pristine than the rest. Granger seated astride the chair that now lay broken, her curly head bobbing up and down over him; his slow, steady instructions as his hands fisted in her hair, as he used her mouth with more care than he would have normally shown with his partners.

My mother is not pleased with my answer, I can tell. But I cannot calculate everything I say to please her. He was examining his wrinkled robes with an expression of distaste. "And that would be?" he inquired, finally looking at her. His eyes widened slightly as they travelled up her leg, but then narrowed to slivers when he caught sight of what she was showing him. They would have the marriage annulled as soon as possible, of course, and no one would be the wiser. No heads would roll. No one would need to be strategically shoved out of a tall window to keep from talking. Money would ease the situation, of course. Even the largest blunders could be remedied with a lot of money and a bit of thuggery. As time goes on, the water dragon begins to develop human-like emotions as he watches over the child growing up, and the conflict of power grows around the two. First, he was in a hotel room, and not a particularly nice one at that. The drapes–drawn, thankfully–were lime green. The carpet was nondescript brown shag and the few pieces of furniture were either made of plastic, chipboard, or some hideous alloy of the two.The growth between Sol and Briar was lovely, they built something out of nothing. Everything that ensued between them was entertaining. Most spectacularly the steam, like seriously if I could get just an ounce of what Sol’s laying down, I’d die a most satiated woman.

Beneath him, meanwhile, Granger was taking advantage of his distraction and was attempting to elbow him in the balls. As stories go, The Dragon's Bride had potential. Human woman in need of a better life agreeing to be auctioned to monsters from other realms. It doesn't sound great but in this instance, our heroine Briar Rose leaves behind an abusive husband. For her, this is the better option. She nodded. "They had a tattoo place on the second floor of the pub. You wanted to look inside. We went in and I'm not quite sure how it happened, but we ended up–” The valley is dying… crops won’t grow, the ground is drying to dust! Even weeds won’t grow anymore, it seems!

"In the real world, yes, even the magical world, people have sex. That's how we make little wizards and witches."

The strongest part of this book is definitely the world building. It was an interesting fantasy world, a fun take on elf-like creatures and how their magic works. I also thought Imara was a strongly-realized character with a satisfying arc. I wish her male counterpart, Lajos, had had a similar arc, but he pretty much fell in insta-love with her and didn't deviate, which was a little boring. I like romance novels that are about both protagonists growing separately and together (especially when you get dual POVs). Kidnapped Bride” takes readers on a journey filled with drama, fantasy, and romance. The manhwa explores the life of Lucina, who finds herself caught between duty and her desire for independence. As she navigates the unfamiliar world of Hakkan’s dragon lands, Lucina discovers secrets, faces challenges, and experiences unexpected emotions. He slid two fingers between her legs and whatever he discovered there made him grunt a sound of approval. Or perhaps vindication. The beginning was slow, and I wasn't hooked until aroubd halfway through. But the story was fun! I really enjoyed Imara. From the girl who didn't see her own worth, to someone who truly stands in her own power. Ronar is snarky, constantly poking at Imara. But overall I enjoyed the relationship between them. It was very slow burn, more closed door, that didn't bother me. The relationship between the two of them was sweet.He tossed the sheet away and got to his feet. Hermione felt her advantage all but whittle away. God, the boy was tall. It was hard to maintain your equilibrium when you were in the same room as an annoyed, snarky, tall , son of a former Death Eater. Ressler, Karen (July 1, 2016).

The time for meekness is over, Mari Girl,” she murmured. “He may be the Dragon Master, and to be your husband, but let him know you will settle for nothing but a true partnership, no matter his powers”

At first I was a lil bit disappointed, when the story ended abruptly after more than 40 chapters. But then, after reading the epilogue, it was kind of fitting. I guess, Draco was not matured to enough to start a healthy relationship with Hermione. And I guess, everyone would do the same and take revenge on the murderer of the own mother... This one was the longest fanfiction ever I have read so far. The author knew from the very beginning how to balance out the story without dragging it or rushing the things. Dressed in only a kilt, the Drakestone’s displayed musculature practically rippled under the stone. Wide shoulders, lithe body, abs for days - a body built in battles, not the gym. Too much of her pre-teen time had been spent sneaking in to steal glimpses of his muscled thighs and sinewy forearms. Honestly Aegon,” our mother scolds him. “Your brother is making this sacrifice for your benefit. You should be grateful to him.”As time and her training go on, she starts to learn about her magic, through hard work, and things start to change. She gains her confidence and starts to gain her touch on her magic! He mightseemkinder than his fearsome looks imply, but she knows better than to trust the way he wants to take care of her, or how invested he is in her pleasure. In her experience, if something seems too good to be true, it certainly is. Cerelle finally raises her gaze to my face. I briefly wonder what she sees… before I remember it doesn’t matter. She is mine. What she thinks, what she wants, is of no consequence. And that wasn't all. As sense and sensibility returned to his body and brain. Draco registered the fact that Granger's hand was currently wrapped around his equally nude, upper thigh, in an unmistakably familiar gesture. She’s scarcely more than a child Aemond. And I know all too well how difficult this family, this life, can be to marry into...”
