Aven Wells | 📖✒️✨

gimme lovers who actually have reason to hate/fear each other. give me a relationship that’s inevitable and calamitous. gimme the YEARNING, but muddy it with prophecy, duty, catastrophic magic, and divine monsters who just want to eat, already. 😈✨❤️‍🔥

I want the pull, I want the tension, I want the banter and the romance, but I want it to feel electrifying and addictive in a way that welcomes the darkness. I don’t just want them to kiss; I want them to be afraid of what happens when they do.

which is more or less EXACTLY what’s goin’ on for our main characters in PROJECT HAWTHORN. two people who are, for better or for worse, bound together by meddling gods and a past that won’t stay dead, who have to reckon with whether or not they’re driven by fate or choice. you know, just your regular, light-as-air palette cleanser 😅😅

ANYWAY, don’t we all just LOVE a good love story?! 🖤🖤🖤
