Enemies to Lovers

You arrive, after a treacherous journey, to The Kingdom of Eastern Elves. The castle is deep under the ice of a frozen lake and you expect to hold court with the king over the possibility of alliance. Instead, you find the hall alight with revelry. And you, Rowan, and Hawthorne get drawn into the party. But when Rowan suspects the king is trying to poison you with a love potion, the night takes a dark turn.

Your escape from The Gleaning sends whispers of war rippling throughout the realm. The King gathers his allies, intent on retaliating against Rowan and all who stand with him. In response, Araydian suggests leveraging you to form an alliance with the Eastern Elves. Rowan refuses outright, unable to entertain the thought of you in peril once more. Yet when he returns to your bedchamber and relays his decision, your rage at his overprotectiveness flares. In a defiant lesson, you make him surrender all his control to you…

And so the journey begins…You, Rowan, and Hawthorne set out across the snowy tundra to the Kingdom of the Eastern Elves, joined by 12 powerful witch guards. One night on the trail, Hawthorne tells you about her magical bond with her late mate and you begin to wonder about the nature of your own connection with Rowan. And later at camp, you daringly put that bond to the test, sending Rowan telepathic visions without a word. The two of you engage in a blazing exchange of fantasies across your connection, discovering a way to ignite the deep darkness of the frozen night.

In this extra spicy chapter of "Wings of Winter", indulge in an immersive experience... The fae prince, Rowan, from “Wings of Winter” finds you after battle in the healing tent. He’s angry that you’ve been hurt, but overwhelmed with relief that you’re going to be ok. Overcome with passion, he takes you right there, but he makes you promise to be very very quiet.

Fang and Lillia are captured by a coven of witches and at first fear their mission has come to a close. But as they get to know Raven and the other witches, they see that they are allies not foes. And as the night grows later, desire blooms in the darkness.

Under the spell of the moonshadowe root they used to heal their wounds, Fang and Lillia share a passionate moment by the forest spring. But afterwards, they both agree to not mention it again. And making their first stop into a middle kingdom town to restock on supplies is the perfect distraction until they face an unexpected danger.

Navigating the perilous passage across the Middle Kingdom border, Fang and Lillia opt for a different route—venturing beneath it. Through a dark and winding cavern, they navigate their way, but peril persists even upon reaching the other side. Confronted by a demon, both Fang and Lillia sustain injuries, compelling them to resort to moonshadowe root for healing. However, the potent and magical effects of the remedy draw them together in an unexpected way…

Fang, a fae warrior, is not fond of Princess Lillia… and the feeling is mutual. However, when Lillia offers to marry the prince of the Southern Kingdom in order to forge an alliance, the Queen demands that Fang is the one to escort her there. Even though the women swear they are enemies, Fang has a dream about Lillia that suggests otherwise…

Fang and Lillia begin their long journey towards The Middle Kingdom and on the first night, take refuge at an inn. The mood between them is tense, but once they start drinking the local wine they both begin loosening up…and even having a little bit of fun. Later, they retire to their room, but once there find there’s only one bed…

It’s a stormy night and Ronan from “Evergreen” can’t fall back asleep. So he holds you close and tells you all the details of the dream he just woke up from...

Winter is rapidly approaching and the energy on the farm is…tense. There’s much to be done before the season changes and Ronan and Mia still haven’t talked about their hookup. But when they get stuck in a rainstorm, the tension comes to a head and all the things they haven’t said come tumbling out.

The final challenge of The Gleaning has finally arrived and it’s more dangerous than each that came before it: the remaining competitors are tasked with racing dragons. Rowan is concerned that you’ll not survive, but dragons are hardly are not the only danger… as the games begin, The King kidnaps you and Rowan must fight to set you free.

After escaping the Royal Kingdom, you, Rowan, and Hawthorne take refuge in the wintry kingdom of the witches. Your wounds are not fatal, but dangerous, and you’re immediately taken to the healing ward. And from there, Rowan takes you back to your bedchambers to rest. You aren’t used to being taken care of, but Rowan knows just how to tend to you.

Following another remarkable performance in The Gleaning, Rowan becomes increasingly suspicious that you may not be entirely human. Convinced that there's untapped magical potential within you, he persuades Hawthorne to lead both of you to a secluded mountain cabin for training, where you'll be safe from the prying eyes of the royal watch. And after a particularly strenuous day of magical training, you and Rowan sneak away from the cabin for some much-needed one-on-one relaxation…

Following elemental training, your magical abilities strengthen, making you, Rowan, and Hawthorne an even more formidable team. However, such success only triggers The King's determination to expel you from The Gleaning. And when you effortlessly conquer the third challenge, his retaliation is swift—he declares Rowan's impending marriage to the elven princess. The moment of crisis crystallizes Rowan’s feelings for you, but it might be too late for him to act upon them...

You and Rowan awake after sharing the same bed, but gone is the passion from the night before—you must now focus on the dangerous task at hand. You both still require an amulet to move forward into the next round of the competition. So together you journey into the bog, intent to find a creature that Rowan suspects will have what you need.

The first challenge of The Gleaning has come to a close, but danger still lurks around every corner. Upon return to the castle, Rowan receives an ominous warning from his father: end your alliance with the human or there will be consequences. But in the alluring blue light of The Opening Fire ceremony, he can’t seem to stay away from you.

The next challenge is mere days away and Rowan is summoned to see his father. He tells the fae prince that in the next game each competitor will battle a magical creature of the game-makers choosing. He offers to tell Rowan what creature he will battle if he promises to end any and all relations with the human, but Rowan does not accept: he’s tired of his father’s cruel games of control. He storms off indignant, but secretly he harbors a great fear that without magic you won’t be able to survive this next challenge. The stakes have never been higher and his feelings have never been deeper…

The first challenge of The Gleaning has finally arrived. Each competitor is tasked with finding a golden amulet in Dreadmourne Grove, but there’s not enough for everyone. Thus, what begins as a game quickly turns into a deadly battle. The alliance between you and Rowan is put to the test—can you trust one another with your lives? And when you have to share a shelter for the night, you're forced to grapple with your differences, secrets, and the growing attraction between you.

It’s the night before The Gleaning begins and all the competitors are gathered in the royal banquet hall, drinking fairy mead and reveling in what could be their last night alive. When Rowan spots you, a human, stealing a dagger from Orion he’s alarmed… and begrudgingly impressed. He must satisfy his curiosity: what has brought you to the deadliest game in all of Aurora? He follows you out into the courtyard and the heated confrontation quickly turns into something else entirely.

When the clock strikes midnight, and The Gleaning begins, all hell breaks loose. You and Rowan, caught in the crosshairs, form an unlikely alliance between human huntress and fae prince. He needs to sleep before the first competition starts and you have a very creative idea on how you might both be able to settle down…
