Weekend Briefing: Vella Update

Last week I shared about Betrayal & Banditry. This week I want to talk about my other Vella story that is still releasing, Bond of Destruciton.

She's more than just a scullery maid.
He's nothing but a steward.
Surely not enough to distract an ascending queen.

Zahra always knew what her destiny was, and even without the gift of sight, she knows the path she must tread to achieve it. What she didn't anticipate, though, was just how deeply she would feel the sacrifices she must make.

After all, a human sacrifice must be made if she is to take vengeance upon the current King of the Duat and ascend to the throne. And if that sacrifice is a trusting mortal maid named Salma, so be it.

And Zahra will do what needs to be done. Carefully, though, to avoid the ever-watchful eye of the young steward who has foolishly become enamored of her and thinks he sees something that is not there; that is lost forever. And Zahra would know, because sometimes, she can see as she used to. But only when the blood of another is on her tongue . . .
