Dark Nectar
She kept the faith.
Alone. In the cold.
For something that never answered.
Until it did.
Until they did.
One goddess of shadow.
One goddess of earth.
And the moment they both look at her… everything she thought she was breaks.
Because this time—
she is not the one worshipping.
She is the one being chosen.
Maren Ashveil has spent her life alone—
running a quiet apothecary, practicing old magic, and keeping rituals no one else believes in.
She was never meant to be the centre of anything.
Only to orbit.
But when the veil thins on Samhain night,
something ancient finally answers her call.
Not one goddess.
Two.
Persephone — cold, precise, devastating… the Queen who chose the dark and never looked back.
Gia — wild, powerful, consuming… the earth itself, alive and watching her for far longer than she should have.
Both want her.
Neither will step aside.
And Maren?
She is no longer sure she wants them to.
As desire turns dangerous and ancient forces begin to wake beneath her town, Maren is pulled into a world of divine hunger, forbidden magic, and a love that refuses to fit into mortal rules.
Because this isn’t a love triangle.
It’s something far more powerful.
And far more dangerous.
To survive what’s coming, she’ll have to stop making herself small…
and become the one thing even gods cannot ignore.
