The Nymph's Gentle Command

By: Lucien Vale

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

She’s never been worshipped by a mortal man.
Her sisters think that’s laughable.
On Beltane, everything changes.

Nerida has lived centuries as a forest nymph, yet she has never once known the intoxicating reverence her sisters collect with ease. While they are showered in offerings and devotion, she has remained on the outside, unsure of her own power.

Determined to prove herself during Greywold’s Beltane festival, Nerida sets her sights on a village watchman—but her borrowed charms and awkward appeals falter.

Then Thane risks his life to protect her from an ancient evil.

For the first time, someone sees her worth.

As flowers bloom beneath the moonlight and longing stirs between them, Nerida discovers what her mocking sisters never taught her: true strength flows not from demanding obedience, but from cherishing what is freely given.

To be truly yours is to feel safe enough to yield.

A standalone fantasy romance of awakening desire, tender power, and the devotion found when passion and trust entwine.
