It's not Tuesday, omg, what am I doing posting? Well, I have a free story up as part of a Halloween giveaway with a bunch of other authors, so yep, this is me trying to give you stuff. Accept it😉
The story is called The Wild Hunt, and was originally published in a Dreamspinner anthology in...2012, I think? Long ago. At any rate, I hope you enjoy it--this is one of the first of many self-pubbing efforts coming out soon, so let me know what you think. The cover art is courtesy of my unfathomably excellent ficwife, Tiffany.
David Evans has wanted to join in the Wild Hunt ever since he was a
child, watching it ride through the forest behind his house on
Halloween. He never has, though, no matter how intrigued he is by the
leader of the hunt, Gwyn ap Nudd. Going with Gwyn would mean leaving the
real world, and his family, behind forever.
When life pushes David to the breaking point, Gwyn offers him an escape for a single night. David accepts, not knowing how irresistible the land of Annwn is until he sees it for himself...and learning firsthand the pain of leaving his fae lover behind for another year.
David will wait as long as it takes to see Gwyn again, and thanks to Gwyn's magic, that might not be as long as he fears.
