The end and the beginning

The final paragraphs of The Witch's Cursed Daughter, Book 1 of The Myrde Chronicles.

Evianna woke with a start. A puddle of tepid sweat outlined the sheets beneath her body, the scent scaring away that of flowers. The sound of the quiet night was a comforting solace, having faced the terror of Myrde’s words. Since waking from her four years of anguish, Evianna had the fate of a Witch thrust upon her and the revelation that the Myrde would accompany her as she tried to resist a doom she had no choice in accepting.

Clambering across the vast bed, gripping one of the large wooden pillars to help her descend onto the fur rug on the floor, Evianna’s legs shook under a weight they had not carried in a long time. Lowering herself to the ground, she looked out at the moon. Tugging down one of the pillows from above her, she reconstructed the make-shift bed she had laid in the first night she spent in Lupine Palace. With the moon’s consoling glow soothing her mind and body to rest, Evianna lay down her head, eyes wide, afraid of returning to the presence of the Myrde.

Who has read it? Who wants to know what happens next? I am writing book two, which will be ready after summer 2023!
