As the red-haired man hovered just above the pile of leaves, an arrow whistled through the trees and embedded itself deep in the man’s chest. He flew backwards from the force, dead before his body hit the ground.
Amber sank to her knees as she saw Connor and Alia burst into the clearing followed by twenty fae men with bows and arrows. Myanna rushed forward and embraced Alia then brushed the leaves from Redka’s body to show her he was safe.
A stout man with red cheeks gripped Myanna’s hands in greeting as Amber walked into the clearing with Tom and Maggie close behind.
Connor appeared at her side, an odd expression on his face.
‘What is it?’ she asked, almost too afraid to hear the answer.
She looked over his shoulder at Alia who was talking to her mother in a very animated fashion. Four of the fae had lifted Redka from the ground and were hurrying out of the clearing behind the stout man as Alia ushered the others to follow.
‘We have to leave now,’ he said, gesturing for her to go after the retreating group.
‘What’s going on, Connor?’
He looked at her for a long moment, gazing into her dark brown eyes with such intensity. ‘Let’s just say we won’t be going back home anytime soon.’
The End
Shelley Wilson’s love of fantasy began at the tender age of eight when she followed Enid Blyton up a Magical Faraway Tree.
Inspired by Blyton’s make believe world, Shelley began to create her stories, weaving tales around faeries, witches and dragons.
Writing has always been Shelley’s first love, but she has also enjoyed a variety of job roles along the way; from waitressing to sales and marketing and even working as a turkey plucker.
Shelley lives in the West Midlands, UK with her three teenage children, two fish and a dragon called Roger. She is at her happiest with a slice of pizza in one hand, a latte in the other and Game of Thrones on the TV. She would love to live in the Shire but fears her five foot ten inch height may cause problems. She is an obsessive list writer, huge social media addict and a full-time day dreamer.
