In this excerpt from my work in progress, Twisted Destiny, Ella finds herself in a new part of Anandria. (For those new to my series, Ella had been an ordinary woman living on Earth - or so she thought - until magic spilled onto Earth releasing her latent fairy magic)
“Ye be in the city, Datchi.”
“Datchi?” Ella queried, puzzled by the unfamiliar name, but grateful that a stunning woman had stepped out of the crowd to address her.
“Aye, we be the southern neighbour to Moyen,” she continued. “Then again, we be the only city in the southern hemisphere. The rest are all hamlets, or towns.”
“The southern hemisphere!” Ella murmured, her eyes widening as she looked at the gathering crowd. “Where Paul and Michael come from?”
The woman looked startled. “Ye know Paul and Michael?” She whirled about and spoke to the crowd. “A fairy knows of our Paul and Michael.”
A rising murmur went through the citizens until the woman held up her hands. When she had silence, she swung back towards Ella. “Why would a fairy be interested in our boys? No one has seen a fairy for centuries. Why would ye appear this night and know of our boys?”
Stay tuned for more!
