During a camping trip, you accidentally stepped into a fairy circle and met a fae named Valor, who claimed you as a mate. You thought you dreamt up the entire experience.

It is the middle of the night and you are up late working on an assignment. A cold breeze passes through your room and a shadowy figure enters through the window. His voice is like the cold scrape of a knife against the back of your neck.

“Beloved mate.” He chuckles. “I missed you, my precious human.”
