Hayle Coven Destinies

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. SYDLYNN HAYLE IS BACK in an all-new series! Enters the Phoenix A burst of fire blazed in the corner of my eye, jerking me around toward the back door. I barely remembered moving, feet flying over the hardwood, hands slamming against the glass and throwing it open, hurtling out into the dew-wet grass. Fire climbed from a curled up ball of humanity, near the edge of the hedge row leading to the park on the other side of our property. I staggered to a halt, power reflexively tightening around me, ready to attack, when the figure unbent, half sitting, half lying on the ground, her face turned up toward me. “RUN!” Her scream pierced me to my soul, froze my magic in place before it could harm her. Flames burned her, devoured her, dark hair and eyes on fire, but she managed to stagger to her feet, eyes pure gold as she gestured toward me. “Sydlynn Hayle, if you love your family, run and don’t look back!” Things have never been better for Sydlynn Hayle and her family, living out their lives in Wilding Springs, Pennsylvania. Her battles and struggles have come to a halt, her two young children happy and well-adjusted, marriage to her beloved Quaid all she could ever ask for. But when a woman of flame appears to her and warns her of impending danger, Syd understands at last the quiet she’s enjoyed has all been a smoke screen, hiding the truth. Her old enemies have returned to destroy her and everything her family has fought for, with repercussions that could threaten the very Universe. So much for happily ever after.

Chapter 150: Drach With Attitude

I swept into the veil, leaping from the wall of the Stronghold, bypassing the dining hall and Max, leaving Jiao behind though I felt her curiosity at my departure. I reassured her with a flashed image of the darkness, a touch of my need to be alone. She let me go without comment for which I was grateful.

It wasn't that I was watched or followed. Quite the contrary. I thought being a coven leader and a witch meant being in touch constantly with those around me. I had no idea what true loss of privacy meant until I joined the drach. Funny, it didn't bother me so much just yesterday. Now, as I shifted shape and spread my wings, soaring into the slice in the veil, I shivered at the thought of having all those minds in mine.

And while I felt a momentary pang of loss for the peace I'd left behind, I embraced the bits of the old me I allowed to return, even grinning with my muzzle stretched over my sharp teeth in the perma light of the veil at the thought.
