I'm surrounded by two hundred thousand elves, yet somehow, I'm still lonely.
After a rough few millennia, the past decade has finally brought us peace and security-and justified my choices as our leader. But as chaos gives way to calm, I have more time for myself… yet it's not what I want it to be. I've been alone for a long time, but before my people and work needed me more. Now the lonely hours stretch into eternity.
Until I meet Jared.
He's my perfect match in every way; a teacher, a gardener, a cat dad. He loves books, nature, and interacting with others. He's sweet, funny, kind, and we're fire in the bedroom. The only hiccup? He's human, and he doesn't know other species exist.
Legally, we haven't been together long enough for me to tell him I'm not human, and it's getting harder and harder to keep this secret. To keep part of myself from him… to lie. But what if he learns the truth-a truth that will shatter the core of his beliefs-and can't handle it?
