Shadowy.
That was Shadow's existence for five thousand years - until she learned in order to step out of her mother's shadow, she had to step into her own.
Shadow is tired of the sameness of every day in Pohjola, and being kidnapped by heroes and villains who care nothing about her. After her latest kidnapping, she returns to Pohjola with a new resolve to escape her mother's control, and begins a rebellion with her sisters. Determined to become her own person, and prove she can take care of herself, Shadow strikes a deal with Louhi, Goddess of Witchcraft and Death.
Shadow is finally free, but the stakes are high, and her poorly chosen words make every day a risk.
Travel to Pohjola - Louhi's domain, meet some of Shadow's sisters, the Maidens of Pohjola, and discover how Shadow became Viktoria.
This sexy short story is about the deal Shadow made with her mother, and serves as a companion work to the Vampires & Strygoi Witches series.
About the author
I love to travel, read, and think of ways to complicate my characters' lives. I have two borrowed cats who take shameless advantage of my good nature. Hopefully you find my characters a lot more entertaining than I am. :)
If you enjoyed this story, you may be interested to know that I write in several series. While each novel is written for one relationship, features unique mythologies, and can be read as standalone, a little more of that world is revealed and the overall arc of the series grows throughout.
I also write two versions of most of my stories. For the naughty versions, read stories by Ysobella Black. If you prefer nice/sweet stories with fade to black scenes and no swearing, you'll want to read the versions by Ysobel Black.
The best way to find out what's going on with the series, and me, is to visit my website at https://www.ysobellablack.com. There, you can also check out the wikis and timelines for each series.
Or, sign up for the newsletter. https://ysobellablack.com/newsletter/
I send out things like surveys, freebies, contests, and random news about things going on with me that may or may not be interesting.
I love hearing from my readers. Feel free to contact me via my website, or find me on social media. I admit, I don't keep up with posting constantly on one account, much less two, so I don't have separate accounts for my two pen names on most platforms.
