Ancestors and Expectations

By Hellucy Howe

What if the truth doesn't set you free?

As eldest child, Seelie Lord DeMaksim Aphiski is expected to be the Papillion Duchy's heir. Until the day he breathes fire. Blue blazes, is the rumour of a Dracon in the family actually true? Needing answers, DeMaksim pursues a report of a draconian family connection into the threatening Dark Reaches, and suddenly his life takes wing.

Unseelie Undine-Eldwytch crossbreed, Cherith Beriaden has the soft core of a plant nurturer but the appearance of a soul-sucking killer. Wrenched away from her water-roses just to tail a spy, Cherith is even more annoyed when the dolt turns out to be gorgeous. River Goddess! Who knew she had a weakness for vazel eyes?

Unexpectedly bound together by a warped Unseelie monster, Cherith and DeMaksim are forced into an awkward partnership. If the monster still lived, she could snap the connection in seconds, but now they have to seek answers elsewhere. Hopefully by All Hallows' Eve. Forced to cuddle together at every rest period, freedom is top priority for both of them ... isn't it?
