She’s the last woman I should want.
She once fell for a dark elf. Raised his child. Built a life out of his absence.
And she’s sworn she’d never fall for another.
After I lost my wife, I swore I wouldn’t, either.
And yet… when I walk into her shop with my sick daughter in my arms, something shifts.
The moment she looks at Nya like she’s her own, I know I’m already breaking rules.
I came to this village to disappear.
But every day with her drags me back to life.
Her laugh.
Her daughter.
The way she says my name like she’s not supposed to.
I’ve buried a wife.
I’ve raised a child alone.
But this woman?
She makes me want a future.
One where our daughters grow up as sisters.
And she sleeps in my bed every night.
I may be master of my fate.
But she’s the one rewriting my ending.
Read on for single dad tenderness, secret brother drama, domestic tension, and a dark elf who never runs when it matters. HEA Guaranteed!
