Night Born by S.J. Sanders
As a child I was told that, when a witch dies, it’s not like the death of any other mortal. The magic that is released with our souls is potent, because a witch is both of this world and not, descended from copulation between humans with other beings. For this reason, we are not entirely beholden to this place, though we belong to the human race, but we are confined here to our birth realm by the gods’ decree. Only death offers a potential moment of freedom, and therefore is guarded most carefully. For a witch on the loose, without an anchor forcing her back into the control of the mortal world, is a potentially dangerous thing.

It is for this reason that elites of the Thanatos choir are assigned to escort the souls of witches. They offer peace and respite in their embrace, but I know it is a trap. Freedom exists in the non-corporeal realms for a witch powerful and daring enough to escape their thanatos.

And that witch will be me, Leanna Wyld.

Transported to the demonic realms by the aid of my familiar, I find my escape from the bindings of the mortal cycle and relish the new freedom that these new realms offer. But there are new rules to learn, and new dangers that await around every turn, and untamable desires. Fire Lord Noxiel, a demon born into the world by the goddess Nyx, is the best and worst of this world: danger and desire. Ancient and powerful, he is temptation determined to capture me within his web of passion, but has secrets and agenda of his own.

I know I cannot trust this demon lord who offers me protection, but I have little choice because this world has taught me a truth that I hadn’t known. A witch may escape but one who dares will be pursued, and now the hunt is on for my soul. Can I trust Noxiel enough to evade the thanatos or will the fates finally catch up to me once and for all.
