The teaser chapters

The original Ring of the Axe story (below) was written for a small group of “shadow mamas” - trusted friends who share a penchant for faerie smut.

Since then, I’ve been expanding the story of Chelsea’s dips and dives into the Faerie Realm.

Soon, I hope you’ll be able to enjoy the first few chapters of the novel! (But don’t hold it against me if the details change in the final version - this is still very much in draft form.)

Until then, you can check out the original story, below.

The original story

One night in December 2023, I had the idea to write my friends a sexy winter fantasy short story…as a tongue-in-cheek Christmas gift.

Here’s the original story that I shared with my friends that Christmas 2023. They received the story with this message:

Christmas comes early!

But omg this is so embarrassing. Please never talk to me about this unless it’s sentences that start with “I loved when…” or “I want to know more about…”

Also I was too ambitious so this is just half of what I originally planned. To which Matt said “oh you know these things are always trilogies anyway.”

So now I humbly present: Ring of the Axe
