Earth Dweller(2019: editing and publishing)

Description

The adventures of a dryad and her daily life being a teenage mom with wolves as her best friends.

Foreword

 
 

"She slept with wolves without fear, for the wolves knew a lion was among them."

 

   Iridessa, or 'Dess' for short, was born a dryad from her mother. Her 'father' left the family long ago because of her mother's 'accused' unfaithful decisions that led to her birth. Growing up wishing that true love was real, she gave birth to twin boys at the age of fifteen and the father left her. Since then she has believed that 'true love' only exists in fairy tales. A full-time tree hugger and an impressive archer, Dessa found out while growing up that her race wasn't the only magical creature exisiting in Terra, her hometown that sits in a forested valley that floods just about every time it rains, but it has that ancient cultured feel

to it and Dess would rather be no where else.

 

She was accepted into Kris' pack when she was around thirteen. His pack moved to town when things started to go downhill, knowing that Terra was a magical place. At first they noticed that she was different before it could happen vice versa (most likely because her hair color changes depending on her environment). Immediately Kris was put on edge, believing that some dryads are only out for seduction and mischief, which made her become sassy and thick-skinned. However, he finds out that she's not and hesitantly accepts her. She is down to earth and empathic; he is cold and distant. She's stubborn and too realistic; he is judgemental and paranoid.

 

Her mother and even her sons know about her being in a werewolf pack. Honestly, she gives an advantage to the group.

 

Dryads are known to communicate with plant life and even animals (although that takes a lot more work) along with being able to heal, sense life, and even cast a couple enchantments. 

 

It's the beginning of her senior year now and things get crazy when she notices that someone is stalking her and there's a strange dark ooze showing up all over town, and she must do all she can to protect her children and herself with some help from the pack.

Oh and her wolves love contact which means a lot of closeness and not many boundaries or personal space.

I started this story back in 2015! Now that it's 2019, I think it's time for other people to see!
