Timeless

Immortal Fire

by Nix Winter

From the Immortal Fire Anthology

Different worlds, different expectations, but when a Captain saves a Prince, it may be the Prince's love that saves the Captain.

There are three main characters, it's a love triangle, where they could all end up in a trio. They are Captain Faith Denen, Yee the Leche, Nathaniel Lath Rizen Vin Rayn, Duke of the Emerald Coast, Lord of Trimern, Crown Prince of Elestrian. The world is a far future world, where landfall was made on a distant planet and technology not retained... so that the people are living much closer to the level of Europe in the 1700's. The culture is split between High Town and Low Town. Nathaniel is the heir to the throne. Faith is the captain of a merchant ship with a disreputable family history. In Timeless, Faith and Nathaniel are trying to escape the palace and Faith comes into possession of some very ancient magic that will make him the ultimate protector of his prince. It'll make him immortal, but every immortal life starts somewhere.

About the author

Hi!

Oh my goodness! It's been so long since I updated here!

I'm still writing. I think I will always write. I'd so love to share my stories with you.

I also just want to put it out that I'm trans. Going into transition was so good for my life. It was as if I'd been living with gloves on all my life and nothing felt real and then suddenly, I could feel the texture of everything, both good and bad.

I know there's been some crazy in the romance world and it's scared me to death. So! I'm trans. Please don't be mean to me. I just want to share my stories with you! :)

In a futeristic fantasy setting, a young man sets out to rescue a Prince, and then all kinds of strangeness is unleashed. This is part of the Immortal Fire anthology, and I loved it. Nix's writing is sensual, full of tension and heat. The young men are yummy, enchanting. The setting is brilliant - Nix is one of those people who can sketch a setting, making a whole world spring to life in just a few lines.

Oh this was a really cool story. And it has enormous potential to be just the beginning of something huge! But even as a novella there is so much to recommend it. The sense of high adventure permeates the entire story; the sense of an incredibly sensual ménage lurking in the background is enough to tempt, tease and titillate.
I'm really hoping that Nix Winter has a lot more story for Faith, Yee and Nathaniel. These guys deserve it!

At first I was lost in this story. Then I started to like it. Then it was over. I wanted more ;-)

Short story about a "commoner" who is not so common and his love for a prince or two - with magically opening portals, goddesses of life and death. Oh and Love.
