Dark of Night — Kaye Draper

Betrayed by the lie of goodness and light, cast out by the elf she thought would love her forever, Alys is sold to a mysterious dark fae lord. She finds herself once again a servant in a deceptive and dangerous world. Determined to escape faerie and return to the human side of the veil, Alys does everything she can to learn about the wild magic that brought her here.
But her new master, a fae so hideous he hides from the world, has plans for Alys. Something is coming. Everything she -- and the fae around her -- know is about to change. But will she survive the shift?
Dark of Night is a 30,000-word fantasy romance novella. It is part 2 of 3 in the Forever After series. Be aware this novella ends on a “to be continued” feel, though one main plot thread does come to a close (for now.) Contains adult sexual situations.
