Honey from a Lion's Skull
In the shadow of her broken marriage, Lily Bloodstone thought she had finally escaped the man who haunted her every step. But when her ex-husband threatens to take away what matters most-their teenage daughter Serena-Lily finds herself backed into a corner, her limited finances becoming a weapon against her. Seeking refuge in her childhood home, Lily returns to her mother Martha's embrace, hoping to find a moment's peace among the whispering pines and humming beehives. Martha is no ordinary beekeeper, though; she's a witch whose ancient bond with the bees goes deeper than honey and wax. For generations, her family has aided the bees in their eternal struggle against the brutal hornet swarms that threaten their delicate kingdom. As summer unfolds, young Serena discovers there's more to her grandmother's bee yards than simple hives. Caught between her warring parents and the age-old conflict of bee versus hornet, she must navigate the bitter sweetness of growing up while learning that sometimes the most precious honey comes from the most dangerous places-even a lion's skull. In this spellbinding tale of family, nature, and resilience, three generations of women must confront their own demons while standing together against forces both natural and supernatural. Because sometimes, the real magic lies not in the spells we cast, but in the bonds we forge when everything threatens to fall apart.

My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper.
