Autumnus - An Under the Dome Romance

In the land of endless mist and velvet shadows, monsters don't hide- they rule. Neva Denali, a street thief from the Summer Isles, was prepared to die for her crimes. Instead, a mysterious pardon spares her life and binds her to servitude in an estate deep within Autumnus: a place of cold beauty, rigid tradition, and mythicals who see humans as little more than useful pests. The mansion is immaculate. The rules are suffocating. And its unseen master holds the leash on every move she makes. But Neva refuses to bend. When a stranger steps from the fog with a cruel smile and an invitation to play a game she doesn't understand, she finds herself drawn into something far more dangerous than seduction. But Autumnus is a place where memory lingers and nothing is ever as it seems. As Neva begins to unravel the truth behind her so-called pardon, she realizes she may have stepped into someone else's story... and someone else's shadow. Now, with desire tangled in deception and her sense of self slipping through her fingers, Neva must choose: conform to the role she was never meant to play- or change her own fate. **Please note, this novella is a work of fiction that contains explicit and dark themes.
