WE WILD THINGS

(A MIDSUMMER Novella)

The rules of the Wild Hunt are simple: to the victor go the spoils…

Being a Banshee means I should have seen my heartbreak coming. I should have known that I’d wake up cold and lonely after a passionate night with my commander, Finn, and his lieutenant, Donnelly. We’d spent six centuries pillaging and fighting together, but after a few hours of reckless mistakes, Finn left Donnelly and me without a goodbye. That was ten years ago, and neither of us has heard from him since.

When the king and queen call everyone back to the realm of the fairies for the Wild Hunt, I expect a heart pounding race through the woods and a night of fearless abandon. I expect Donnelly to capture me the way he did the last time we participated in this ancient fairy ritual.

But Donnelly is not the one who hauls me up against a tree to claim me. I’d know Finn’s growly voice and deep oak scent anywhere. He says he’s back for what’s his, and he means more than my body. He wants my heart, and Donnelly’s too, but he’ll have to do more than apologize to win that battle.

Magic this powerful demands complete submission or a call for mercy, and I never could go down without a fight.
