The Night Warden’s Bride

When fog swallows Hollowmere and names are stolen, Night Warden Kade keeps the lanterns burning-until Elara, a traveling scribe, arrives to copy the forbidden Hollow Chronicle. Together they uncover a keystone buried under the river and a vow that can call back dawn-if a witness will stand at the warden's side. Their hunt leads into a manor where a Regent hoards stolen names in glass, through a bargain with the river itself, and toward a bond that is half oath, half flame.
With the valley watching and the fog listening, Kade and Elara must choose what to save, what to burn, and how much of their hearts to bind to the light. Darkly romantic, atmospheric, and hopeful, The Night Warden's Bride is a standalone novella about courage, devotion, and the moment a world remembers how to breathe.
