A Heart Meant for a Dragon — Episode 2

Your Highness, why did you agree to go north? That's not a wedding. The king is offering you to the dragon. The Lord of the North is no man. He is the dragon of legend. Every century, the surrounding kingdoms must offer him a princess bride.

Or watch their lands burn to ash. I was searching for a worthy sacrifice. And you, Callista, you never fail to prove yourself a dutiful daughter. Staying here, I'm nothing but an eyesore to them anyway.

But legends warn the dragon is a bloodthirsty beast. Seven princesses have been taken, none survived. Still better than staying here, letting them bleed me dry piece by piece. If you persist, I will petition His Majesty to have myself reassigned.
