Shadows of Iraedes | NanoWrimo 2021
Aurora Bailey has had a hard life, and the horizon is only looking harder. She's finally had enough of her abusive partner and decides to leave him, but finds she can't when he keeps pulling her back, sometimes even physically. After many attempts to leave him she manages to slip away and finds a new slew of problems. She's a girl alone, and right after she sees Gharet, her ex-abusive partner, with another girl, Aurora is attacked in an alley.
Just when she thinks she's about to be murdered in a grimy alley, a man comes to her rescue, and who better than the friend of the prince and princess? Lord Evander has her attacker arrested and takes Aurora to his home, a large estate. Aurora settles in comfort in a safe new world and believes being on the other side everything is perfect, but again, she's wrong, and Gharet isn't finished with her. He goes as far to rope the church in and have her returned to him.
She battles a tiring fight struggling to just have a peaceful life. Can she, or will she be trapped by Gharet forever?
