“You have no idea what you are talking about,” this elf, Evander, chuckles. He then laughs, deep and resonant like a large copper bell. “I am not an...elf.”
“LIAR!!” Conner howls, snapping his jaw, “We are not letting him near our mate! He smells disgusting!”
He did smell disgusting. All Fae do. Like a patchouli-covered pine tree fucked a fireplace--too much ashes and spice. His scent is burning my synapses. My lungs are closing up as I struggle to swallow air that isn't perfumed with his funk. If he isn’

Little Red Riding Witch The End of The Road
[Rosalynd] "WATCH OUT!!!" I scream Axel stomps on the brakes and my body flies forward, my outstretched hands keeping me from slamming into the dashboard. The headlights of the car reflect off the surface of a solid stone wall that is far taller than the truck, at least twelve feet high, wrapping around this entire section of forest. It seems to go on forever in each direction. “What the fuck!” Axel screams as he jumps out of the truck to inspect any damage. I can hear him pat the hood, and kick the tires, but I don’t hear any cursing as he circles the truck, so I think everything is probably fine. Closing my eyes, I rub the back of my neck
Little Red Riding Witch Altercation Alteration
[Axel] Shit. I really fucked up this one. I carried my mate into that damn elf’s house and placed her on his “chaise” in his “sunroom,” which is more like an arboretum with all the plants. Dappled sunshine creates shadow shapes across her sleeping form. “Sleeping,” Conner growls. “You knocked her out you idiot!” “I know, I know…”
Little Red Riding Witch Well Met, Tatania
[Rosalynd] There is a fire blazing in the corner, cheery and bright. In the distance, bells are ringing as the wind chime jingles just outside the breezeway. Snow is starting to fall, and I am cold, using the warmth of the oven to keep out the chill. The long sweater dress and leggings are not nearly thick enough for Humboldt winter. Wait a minute, I thought it was just fall. Warm arms wrap around me from behind, his smell is comforting, like wood smoke and pine trees. Pulling me into him tightly, his red hair drapes over one of my shoulders as he plants a kiss behind my ear, and his very erect groin into my backside.
Little Red Riding Witch Enchantra on Tour
[Enchantra]“Welcome, Enchantra, to Sunny Side Up, LA’s number-one morning show!” The man in the gray suit, Dick Trainor, welcomed me by speaking sideways, his face tilted to give his best angle to the camera. We are facing each other on a soundstage, each of us sitting on a large, plush chair in powder blue, separated by a small brown end table that only looks like wood. “It is such an honor to have a local legend like yourself on our show. Would you like to tell us about your next project? I’m sure that Greyvers are interested in hearing all about it.”“Well, we wouldn’t want to disappoint the fans, now would we,” I wink at the camera. “Hi Greyvers! ““Hi Enchantra,” the audience responds automatically before giving the Gre
Little Red Riding Witch A Rude Awakening
[Rosalynd] “Am I in a jungle?” I wonder internally as I blink awake, staring up at sunlight filtered through monstera leaves and palms. My head feels like smashed jello. Cradling it gently with one hand, I sit up rubbing my eyes with my other hand. Slowly rotating my neck, the pain is so intense that if I move too quickly, I am certain that my brain will leak out of my ear. I don’t know where I am, but this place is beautiful. Someone has worked hard to make this room into a paradise of growing things. The room is made entirely of glass, like a greenhouse large enough for a house, chairs, and several shelves. Tendrils of flowering vines and offshoots of spider plants hang from overhead. An assortment of flowers,
Little Red Riding Witch Charmed
[Rosalynd] "Rosalynd!" Gideon shouts at me as he helps me to my feet. "Fancy meeting you here.” I’m not sure if he’s happy to see me or not. He’s a very difficult man to read. Wincing I ask, “Can you please stop shouting?” “What?” he yells back. I put my hands over my ears. Pulling out a tiny earbud he says. “Sorry, I didn’t catch that. Were you trying to say something?” The golden hour sunlight glowing through his hair, He’s almost charming as he blinks at me, trying to make sense of my words. “I was just asking you to stop shouting, I have a bit of a headache,” I explain. Placing a hand on my temple, he says a few words, and I find my head feeling lighter, the pain receding. Looks like his “hangover helper” spell has more than one use. “That should keep the pain away for a couple of hours, but you should still take it easy. How did you get a concussion?” “Long story,” I raise my hands. “And I would rather not talk about it right now if you don’t mind.” He grim
Little Red Riding Witch Messages
[Slone] “So you’re not an elf?” Evander, Axel, and I sat around the dining room table eating guacamole from a communal bowl. “Nope,” Evander mumbled through a mouthful of tortilla chips. “I’m pretty sure there isn’t a single elf in my family tree. My grandma was human, but that’s not so unusual amongst our kind.” He shrugs. “Nothing against elves or anything, it's just not who I am.” Axel just grunts. He doesn’t have a lot to say. I’m not even sure why he is still here. Shouldn’t he be with Rosie? Stretching, I rub my eyes, s
Little Red Riding Witch Becoming Coven
[Rosalynd] Clamping my phone closed, I smile up at everyone.“All set,” I announce. “Slone’s going to take care of everything." Ten of us are seated around a grand oak table in the center of a large living room. This house is just off campus, butted up against the back of the forest, just outside of Fae territory. It is a larger house, an old Victorian, that had been converted into apartments. When the coven purchased this home ten years ago, they kept the apartments separated, allowing each member to have a little semi-private space. The coven meets like this every night, coming home and joi

Little Red Riding Witch See You Next Time
[Rosalynd] I’d like to say this is a happily ever after, and I guess in some ways it is. Girl meets boy. The boy turns out to be a wolf. The girl meets another boy, who is a witch, and then another boy who happens to be a leprechaun. They all fall in love and have a lovely life full of magic and love. But fairy tales only seem simple on the outside. And our story is still beginning. Evander has been busier than ever ruling his kingdom. He spends as much time as he can here, but Tara is calling. Soon, he may need to stay there for longer. I’ll miss having him with me every day, but I understand. And It’s not like I can’t be there with him. It’s just a simple flip of a coin. Axel has taken his new duties as Guardian of the Forest very seriously. His new abilities from his time as the void have made him useful when it comes to detecting warlock mischief. Yes, we are still dealing with the warlocks, as before, but with their leader gone, they are a lot less powerful. Gideon has resum
Little Red Riding Witch New Opportunities
[Evander] I’m not sure what Rosalynd is going to think when she sees this. I hope she takes it well. It’s been two months since our daughters were born and sometimes her emotions overtake her. “My Love,” I call out as I cross the threshold of our home in the woods. Today is Rosalynd’s day with me, and I can’t wait to come back to her from my dealings with the new council, even if I have some difficult news to share. My “surprise” is hidden in the satchel lying across my chest. She’s become such an intuitive witch since the babies were born that it is almost impossible to keep anything from her. She’ll likely sense the contents or see a vision or some other trick of the universe that will reveal everything before I open my mouth to tell her. Sometimes I wonder why any of us boys even bother to try. “Back here!” She responds from the kitchen, her voice strained with effort as if trying to lift something heavy. The kitchen is the last room I’d expect to find her in and prob
Little Red Riding Witch And Babies Make Family
[Rosalynd] The chaotic hubbub that my announcement created would be comical if it weren’t happening to me. Thankfully we didn’t have to worry about much, we already had a room set up for the birth. One of the advantages of being married into a family as magical as mine, I have no shortage of highly capable hands to help me in this new adventure. This birth will be a bit more exceptional for a few reasons. Firstly, I am not entirely a wolf or even a simple hybrid. We have no idea how being part chimera is going to change things. Second, I am carrying two children fathered by two men. None of us know how the DNA was passed or what to expect. Will they be witches, leprechauns, wolves, or something else? The only thing we know for certain is that they will NOT be human. Nor will their powers be weak. They are the children born of deities and avatars, crafted from the flesh of some of the most powerfully magical beings on Earth and in Faerie. Thankfully, the Eel River pack already h
Little Red Riding Witch Now and Forever
[Axel] Things have been different since we returned home. It has been months, and even though everything seems to have settled back to “normal,” there is no denying that things will never be quite the same again. Since the night I agreed to let the Void take over my body, I hear voices in my head. Sometimes I see things that others cannot see, even Rosie, our own personal goddess. I am myself, but I am also something else. Even Connor has been affected. After that night in the bunker, his coat had gone completely black, and his eyes glowed with the hot blue fire of the stars. He insists that he is an unchanged wolf, just better looking, but I would be a fool not to be disturbed by the changes. But today, I promised to put all of that aside for the sake of having one, perfect moment. “Are you ready,” Evander smiles from the doorway. His navy blue tie matches the color of my formal suit. Seeing me struggle with my own tie, he walks into the room and takes over for me. “Cousin
Little Red Riding Witch The White Sword
[Evander] I can feel the moment that Rosie gives into the Void. It feels like a cold chisel cracking into my heart, seeking to break the ties that bind me to her, that bind all three of us to her, leaving only the darkness within. Axel thinks that by welcoming the void in, he is getting his opportunity to be with her forever. But he isn't. The void does not need his soul once the darkness completes its work. As she kisses Axel, sealing their union, I know that even with the Universe’s blessing shining within me, I understand that If I do not act swiftly, we may all be tied to the void forever. Or worse, we could lose her to it. “We claimed her first and that bond cannot be broken so easily,” the Universe speaks to me, through me, filling me with the knowledge of what it sees as it fills my body, taking command. Reaching deep within myself, I can feel the truth of those words. The void tried to break us, but it failed. All three of us are still tied to her with shining cords o
Little Red Riding Witch The Gray Shield
[Gideon] His voice is like a cancer, rotting my soul from the inside out. Vincent. I thought I was free of him when he took Esther south when he left our coven behind. “You can never be free of me,” he laughs in my head. “We were never truly apart. Once you merge a soul with another, you are always connected. I was your coven leader. I will always be your coven leader.” “Not if I kill you,” I promise aloud, my body struggling against the magical restraints that Evander placed on me. His cackling laughter fades into the background. He is done with me for now. I can rest and regain my strength so that I can fight him off again next time. Unlike Slone, there is nothing that he can offer me that I want, so there is no way for him to find entry into the deepest parts of my soul. With Rosie and Evander in my life, I have more than I deserve. I wake up in darkness. The room is cold, colder than I expected it to be. It is like all the warmth vacated the room through every little cr
Little Red Riding Witch Dreams and Nightmares
[Rosalynd] I lie there frozen as I watch the black of his eyes expand to overcome the sclera. Wide and unblinking, they stare into my own and I find myself falling into them, losing all sense of where I am. My body is present in the here and now, but my mind and soul have moved on to someplace so vast that galaxies are formed and die around me as I watch. And I remember. I remember being pulled to a place like this once before, at the moment of my almost death, when I had to make a decision. And I stand in that darkness now, the room gone, only darkness remaining. A man steps forward. Whereas before the void had no shape, now that it has a form to inhabit, he takes the shape that has become familiar and comfortable and wears my fiancé's face as he waits for me to come to him. He is still dressed for a wedding, but the clothing doesn't seem out of place here. In his natural element, the void incarnate looks regal, his body radiating power in dark waves of energy. "Do you remember me
Little Red Riding Witch Dark Wedding
[Evander] By the time I reached his location, it was already too late. Axel fell through the opening in the sky, hungry arms grabbing him and drawing him in. It was as if the void itself took him. I have been flitting through the shadows, looking for a trace of him. Wherever he was taken does not lie within the shadow roads. My best guess is that he is somewhere inside one of these buildings. My worst guess is that he is somewhere I cannot follow, deep in the void itself, unable to reach any of us or call out for help. “If you are listening, Universe, we could use your help.” The universe never answers, at least not with words, but my instincts are telling me to head toward the smaller of the two buildings. I cannot blink beyond the walls without knowing what is on the other side. Which means I need to get close enough, undetected, to see where I might land. And then I need to search and keep going until I find him. Until I can find both of them. Because I am not leav
Little Red Riding Witch Not Quite Right
[Rosalynd] The creature wearing the face of my mate walks towards me. He is dressed for a wedding. Top hat, tailcoat, white gloves, and a silk cravat and dress shirt all in varying shades of black and gray, like fog at midnight. His chestnut-colored hair has been slicked back and put into a ponytail, a ribbon of black silk tying it back. None of this feels right. It isn’t Axel’s style. Even at our true wedding, I would more likely expect him to wear designer cowboy boots and a pair of dark denim. But that isn’t the part of him that bothers me the most. It was his eyes. Black as slate, cold and dark, they are the opposite of those warm, honey-brown orbs that stole my heart all those months ago. “What are you?” I hiss, struggling against my bonds. "And where is Axel? Where is my mate?" He places a gentle hand on my cheek, making a shushing sound as he tries to soothe me. “He's still here, watching you, protecting you. Even now, he fights to be by your side," his fingers re
