Zorya Vukmira

A Poem of Tooth and Claw : A 'Strange Sisterhoods' Novella Zorya Vukmira

For her warmth, the vampire Celeste is cast from her coven. For her passion, the werewolf Viszléna is exiled from her pack. When these two outcasts - and ancestral enemies - are forced into a tenuous alliance to survive the hunters stalking their steps, they find an unexpected solace in their shared solitude. But as whispered confessions and shared danger ignite a forbidden desire, they must decide if the home they are building in each other is a sanctuary, or a trap that will lead to their ultimate destruction.

Conditioned to believe her heart was a weakness, and her love was a perversion, each saw her own soul as monstrous. This is a profound story of two women battling their internalized shame, who become unapologetically strong only when they dare to love the very 'flaws' they see reflected in each other.
