Admiral Aella was unimpressed to be asked to bring fire-wielding, noble-born Salamanders across the known world to their island home. She was even more unimpressed to find herself attracted to the countess. Nereida just wanted to get home, after half a lifetime abroad. She had not planned on falling for an ornery admiral. Betrayal, dragons, and, most importantly, love, lay on the horizon for them both. A high-magic, high adventure love story. There is darkness as much as light, and difficult topics are plentiful (see content warnings). This story is going to be long, with shorter chapters. Update Schedule: Monday, Thursday and Saturday at 1215 pm EST What to Expect: Part 1: (Testing the Waters) Aella and Nereida learn to navigate their budding relationship. Slow burn at first. Travelling the seas is dangerous, and they encounter many perils. Part 1 is chapters 1-54 and the story can be stopped there for readers who do not want to go deeper. (Complete) Part 2: (Dangerous Tides) Picking up where part 1 ended, Aella and Nereida find themselves thrust onto a magical quest involving dragons as they continue to try and reach Nereida''''s home. Their relationship continues to develop but there is more action and adventure in this section. (Chapters 55-109, ongoing) Part 3: (title and chapters to be released soon!)
