Eryx, crown prince of Volryx and apex shifter, was a good for nothing womanizer. He wore rose-colored lenses and took nothing seriously. With his ascension coming up, he decided to lounge around in the Riccar Woods, one last chance to soak in his freedom before he was crown as King to the great fae city of Volryx.
Despoina was a female who lived up to her name. Named after one of the Old Goddess's, Despoina was as fierce and sharp as her treasured blades. Trained as an elite assassin and Commander of the Dragon Riders, her duties as heiress of the Draikya demanded her presence at the ascension of the crown prince of the fae. Due to her duties as a vanguard, she chose to make the trek through the Riccar forest.
Two souls as opposite as the sun and moon seem to be forced together by unknown strands, and while Eryx seems to be entranced, Despoina isn't so sure. But the Old Gods are demanding and determined to bring these two together, for there is a storm brewing just over the horizon.
Authors Note:
I am 100% just writing on a whim here. I am unfortunately suffering from writer's block with Perpromenos and the only thing I can think of to get past it is to write something new (it's an ADHD thing, I promise it works). I am NOT discontinuing her, but for right now, she is on hold until I can decide what direction I want to take her.
As for this book, I have a general idea of where I want the story to go, but nothing is prewritten like it was with Perpromenos. I love me a good, strong female character almost as much as I love a golden retriever himbo leading male. So that's what y'all get. I will most likely go back and do some more world building when I am more inspired, but for now, just enjoy the raw story.
