Unrelenting Winds: A Lady of Darkness Novella2024

For centuries, the Great War that divided the realm has been over. The Fae Courts and mortal lands alike have been rebuilding, trying to move forward in a world they no longer recognize. When the Wind Princess requests a meeting with Prince Briar Drayce, ruler of the Water Court, he naturally accepts, intent on keeping good relations with the other rulers of the realm. But when the quirky and aloof princess makes an odd request of him, he starts to question just how much the winds have whispered to her. He’s always kept the peace, but he’s on the brink of breaking laws of old. Now he must decide if it’s worth the risk of angering the Fae Courts, the realm, the gods, and more. While this novella takes place before the events of the Lady of Darkness series, it is recommended you read it after completing the series. If you choose to read it before, please know that while novella does have a happy-for-now ending, you see Briar and Ashtine again in the Darkness series where you learn the fate of their forbidden relationship. This work was previously published in the Mid-Summer Nights Anthology.
