Once upon a time, a human girl was kidnapped by a fae prince...for her own good.
I was just minding my own business in the woods. At night. As you do when your family is as messed up as mine. When I was rudely abducted to Faerie by a grizzly bear.
Okay, so he's actually a cursed fae prince named Leith. And yes, he did technically save me from the creepily intelligent wolves that were chasing me down. But now I'm trapped at his castle until they go away, and this prince is far from charming, what with the missing eye, and the curse, and did he cut his own hair with a sword?
I suppose it could be worse. Yes, the castle and its inhabitants have been cursed by the Unseelie Queen, but I don't have a fox handmaiden back home to braid my hair every day. Or dresses that shimmer like starlight. And maybe the prince isn't so bad, when he's not growling at me. He might even be handsome under those scars.
But that's besides the point. I'm going to figure out the curse this castle is under, save my new friends, and get back home before I lose my heart to this beast of a prince.
Until then, I hope there's at least a decent library somewhere in this castle.
