Unseelie Stories

Gwendolyn Davenport's life has been pretty crappy thus far. After her parents died in a freak fire when she was one, Gwen had been bounced from foster home to foster home after finally being adopted the LeSnoots. Gwen thought life had given her a break at last. But let's be real here. The LeSnoots want nothing to do with her-- adopting a child had just been another way to polish their already spotless reputation. Treated like a servant by the first family she had known in years, Gwen can't wait to turn 18 and finally be free. The only people that keep her sane are her quirky best friend Lola and Lola's brother Michael, the only people that Gwen actually loves. When new boy Evan Villarreal and his family show up in town, everyone is immediately smitten with their perfect faces and perfect manners. Gwen is the only to see something icy and cold behind their porcelain masks. However, she is still strangely drawn to the alluring Evan, who seems to be hiding something dark behind his friendly façade. When a date between the two goes horribly wrong, Gwen realizes that she was right; Evan isn't who she thinks he is. But, as she is soon to find out, neither are her best friends-- nor even herself. People are out to get her. Gwen needs to fight to survive. When the people closest to her start disappearing, Gwen knows she needs to act fast-- and soon. Will she be able to escape the flames that threaten to set her entire existence ablaze?

This story is a HISTORICAL FANTASY with GENDERBENDER (TG) & GIRLS' LOVE (GL) themes. In the misty depths of October, Finley MacDonell, a 13-year-old boy, traveled to the Isle of Skye with his uncle, Professor Fingal MacDougall, and his two assistants to assist with the archeology dig at Dunvegan Castle. Finley had always been sensitive to the unknown, experiencing unexplainable visions and sensations. However, upon arriving on the shores of Skye, he caught the attention of the faeries. One fateful evening, Finley's life took a drastic turn. While searching for his teammate, Conall, he stumbled upon the man mauling a seal pup. Finley attempted to intervene, but Conall's drunken rage led him to drown the boy in Loch Dunvegan. The seals, witnesses to the tragedy, begged the selkie faerie to spare Finley's life. The faerie, moved by their pleas, used her magical coat to restore Finley's life, but at a steep cost: he would forever be 'fairy marked.' Adopted by Queen Áine of the Seelie Court, who transformed him into a female Daoine Sìth named Finnea. With large butterfly-like wings and pointy ears, Finnea embarked on a new life, leaving her human past behind. Two years have passed, and Finnea has almost forgotten her life as Finley. She now scouted the boundaries of the Unseelie Lands, ever vigilant for threats to the Seelie Court. However, upon discovering the slaughtered Unseelie faeries, Finnea rescued the Unseelie Queen from an iron bell and rushed back to the Seelie Court to warn them of the return of the ancient Fomorians.

When the tyrannical Firbolg King Yondrey the High launches a devastating invasion, the ancient enmity between the Seelie and Unseelie Courts of the Tuatha Dé Danann shatters under the weight of a common enemy. To save their people, a fragile truce is forged, binding Prince Stiofán, the cunning Seelie heir, to Princess Grace Lynn, the fierce Unseelie Keeper of Storms. As they lead a desperate alliance against Yondrey's overwhelming horde, a forbidden romance ignites between them, complicating their duty and loyalty. Their quest to uncover a weakness in the seemingly invincible king is hampered by betrayal and internal strife, culminating in a devastating defeat that leaves their forces broken. With time running out and Yondrey's obsession to claim Grace as his own threatening to break their spirit, Stiofán and Grace must rally their remaining allies for a final, desperate counterstrike, blending their opposing magics to turn the tide and prevent the annihilation of their world.

Once every 100 years a fateful masquerade ball is held, where all Creatures of the night are forced to re-live a tragic dance which ended them all. (short story) (Cover art by Vivian Thai on figment)
