author’s note

Former spice trader and Queen of Thieves, Brielle Omola.

My title and talents preceded me, and I embarked on a quest to pull off the biggest heist of my life a week ago. I offered myself to be the bride of a forest goddess to steal her prized horns.

I never imagined I’d come to treasure her tender love, nor confront the fact that my sweet bride is my fated mate.

How hard canit be to steal from a goddess? Godsdamned hard, that’s for sure,I thought, a sour taste filling my parched mouth as I sighed.

I coughed into my ashy hands, wishing for some scented lotion to lather them with. They were as dry and dark as bark when they should be a smoother mahogany hue. But it would be a useless endeavor, seeing as I was scaling an equally dusty cliffside that might as well have been a part of the Nocturnal Mountain range. It was nearly as large, and my body ached the more I pushed on. I needed to rest, but I wouldn’t. Not until I reached my new bride.

“Damn it,” I sighed, my legs giving out on me despite my best efforts as I reached thicker tree trunks carved with strange symbols.

A gateway to the gods. I was close, but not close enough.

A beastwoman protected these woods, a god-like guardian who had sworn an oath to nourish all the living creatures within her realm. And that included mortals like me. Deceitful, fickle beings, she needed as much as she protected, for we were the key to maintaining their world and their magic.

Spice trading was once a lucrative and straightforward endeavor, compared to stealing. But that was before the lycan invasion of the southern lands of Lunaria, which took the heads of most human nobles, cut off our trade routes, and forced us humans to the fringes of Kindred society, what those half-human, half-animal creatures call themselves.
