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 265: Follow The Links

The underground was exactly as I remembered it. Talk about a walk down memory lane. Ghosts lingered with me, though only those of my own making. Of finding my grandmother down here with Pender Tremere, summoning Alison's echo and trapping her in the living world again. Liam with me next, finding the upper chamber to the maji depository below. I ran one hand over the stone wall as I felt the way open for me, crossing into the round room of stone carved with the history of the Universe. Was it different now? Likely though I'd never had time to study it. Liam meant to, but time was never on our side.

The podium in the middle remained, calling to me and my hand. I pressed my fingers down into the stone where carved depressions waited, feeling the warmth of magic tingle from me into the rock. Maji power. I'd given it up when I'd joined the drach, but regardless my blood still ran with their lineage and the pedestal recognized me as one of them.
