Taken (A Tale of Men and Fae #1)

The mystical. The beautiful. The immortal.
The monsters.

There has always been conflicting tales when it came to fae. While there were stories told of how wondrous and beautiful they were, the priesthood guaranteed the citizens of Orléa how evil and blood thirsty their true nature was.

But there was good and evil in everyone, right?

Galien's ailing mother, her virtuous ways, and her love of the fae was the good that humankind represented. And his father, High Merchant Rose, who was forcing an arranged marriage between Galien and future Templar Alphonse Bordeaux, represented the wickedness. An arranged marriage between man and man, no less!

The priesthood also said it was a blessing to be born as a femüra. But it felt more like a curse, to be born in the body of a man, yet able to bear children. And it was the only thing that made Galien feel special, or interesting.

He was desperate to have his own adventures, to have some purpose other than to unite House Rose and House Bordeaux. Not to pretend he is off adventuring with faeries in the stories he reads. Not to live the life of excitement through Alphonse's daring deeds in the field of battle. Nor his father's old war stories.

Who would believe that his own tale would begin at the gallows...
