A Court of Heartbreak and Yearning

Deep within a forgotten corner of the forest, you dwell— a creature of whispered legends and unimaginable power. No one knows how or when you were cursed with the ability to sever the ties that bind lovers and soulmates together, but it doesn’t matter. What matters is the fear you invoke. The courts of the High Fae have cast you out and left you to live in isolation, where you are thought to remain alone. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Because there are those who seek you out, desperate to be released from their sorrow, grief, and unrequited love. And you usually oblige their requests without blinking twice. However, when the beautiful Lysander darkens your doorstep, you hesitate. His pain is something you can clearly see—raw and undeniable. Yet when he asks for your help, you refuse. To your surprise the stubborn prince isn’t taking no for an answer and what ensues is a game of cat and mouse, of teasing and denial. And as the days stretch into weeks, Lysander's pleas are slowly replaced by something neither of you expected: laughter, lingering glances, and the brush of fingertips. Perhaps it’s coincidental, or perhaps it’s true what they say; two broken hearts can heal in the right company. Or maybe…it’s just fate.
