Becca's life has continuously gone down hill since the death of her father. First there was her step-father, then a plague which even her mother, a healing mage could do little against. Becca was used to life taking more than it gave, but when it takes her mother and brother at his birth, she thinks she's seen the worst of her luck; until her step-father gambles her away in a dice game.
With no rights, no family, and no friends, Becca must accept whatever allies she can, and hope for the best of the worst.

Bound in Spirals
A young man finds himself stranded by the death of another. (Written March 2015 - Feb 2018) 12/30/2021 - Author's note: I write to those who have awaited more of this world... I have not revisited this story in years and will likely have to do some major edits/rewrites before I write a sequel. I am sorry to inform it will probably be some more years before I have the time/energy. For now, consider this a fragment of a fuller universe. It is also a peek into the process of me learning to write as well as my early attempts to deconstruct power dynamics/hierarchy/gender/etc. I appreciate anyone who has found something of worth here and I want to reassure you that I don't intend to leave this story to rest forever. It will be reborn from its ashes and bring with it new growth.Complete

"You took his life - now make it right. Help me, and she'll return to light." But does Daniel still want Christine back... when his true mate stands on the living track? Will he choose the love that used to be, or the one that still could be? And will Isabell follow the pull of fate, or choose the one who makes her feel safe? And maybe it's all just a big mistake, a choice the Goddess can't take back. --- Set in the same world as The Last Werewolf.
