A Quiet Fire

What duty binds, only love may set free.

At thirty-three, Lord Valgar, Earl of Saran, is the last surviving water mage of noble blood. Forbidden from joining the war himself, his duty is clear: preserve the magic by fathering children.

But after fifteen years of a loving but childless marriage, the council has run out of patience. They demand he take a second omega. Valgar refuses to betray his mate—so he makes a calculated choice: an older omega, unlikely to bear a child.

But to Lord Quincy, the proposal he is pressured to accept is no mere formality. Still mourning the alpha he lost in battle, Quincy clings to the quiet life he's built around his grief and solitude: his garden, his books, and his beloved animals. He's not ready for another bond—and he harbours a secret that could unravel all of Valgar's careful plans.

Can two reluctant husbands find common ground—and maybe even find that quiet fire known as hope?

"A Quiet Fire" is an arranged marriage romance novella featuring elements of dubcon, consensual polyamory, non-shifter omegaverse, feminisation and mpreg.
