Valhalla The Valkyries Fire
Fire. Blood. Darkness. The tears of her parents were all she could remember.
​
Valhalla Ó¦nnika has lived with the Aesir since she was but five years of age, since a god took everything from her. At first, she was angry, but with the help of her new family and her role in supporting the Valkyries, she found contentment. That is, until one day when she stumbled upon a clue that set her on a path to uncover the secrets of that fateful day.
Years later, Valhalla had grown adept at fire seidr and was equally skilled with a sword, and yet, was still no match for the God of Mischief. Clues led her to the Valkyrie of Shadows. Everything pointed toward the enigmatic figure but she was still no closer to understanding why. Ordered to cease her investigation for her own safety, the All Mother gave her a new focus. With the arrival of a mysterious letter, addressed specifically to Valhalla, she was destined to meet with the High Queen of Veerence.
Death. Submission. Pain. Nightmares were all he ever knew.
Alistair Hilliard II was the High Prince of Veerence. His life should have been one of luxury and indulgence, and would have been were he born anywhere else. Being born a man in Hilliard’s royal family, he was to obey, keep silent, and endure. By night he belonged to the women of high society, a thing to be used, and by day he was charged with protecting the High Queen and her heir.
He was stretching ever closer to the end of his rope. The cost his duties levied upon him were hard on body, mind, and soul. Alistair’s mother had grown increasingly distant since his twenty first name day. His sister, who had made it her personal mission to see to it that his evenings would be spent satiating her friends with new nightly torments, had seemingly gone quiet. It took little time at all for terrible rumors to begin to spread, rumors of an attempt on her life. Regardless of how she felt about him, she was still Alistair’s little sister and no matter what, it fell upon his shoulders to find out the truth.
