She Took My Groom, I Got the Dragon King
1.2k Views · Ongoing · Piper Hayes
This is a world where humans and fantasy races exist side by side. Werewolves move through city streets between glass towers, and every now and then, a pair of massive wings cuts through the clouds overhead. Twenty years ago, to secure the family's standing, the main house signed a contract with the Dragon Clan.
As the least favored daughter of a branch family, I was chosen to be the Dragon King's mate. The terms were spelled out plainly: if I couldn't get married within five years of coming of age, I'd have to go to Dragon territory and go through with the marriage.
For five years, every wedding I've planned has been blown up by my younger sister, Hannah.
This is year five. I'm finally in a wedding dress, about to marry Derek, the boy I grew up with.
What I didn't expect was that one hour before the ceremony, Hannah collapsed in the dressing room coughing up blood. She grabbed Derek's hand, crying, saying she wouldn't make it through the month.
And my parents are on either side of me, hands pressed down hard on my shoulders.
"Just let Hannah have the wedding. She's dying!"
What they don't know is that if I don't get married today, the Dragon envoys will come for me on the spot.
And I won't be coming back.
