    About this series

    I saw my death coming.


    It was staring me in the face through the eyes of another witch, but I was wrong. It’s an easy mistake to make, that your enemies would be the cause. Death didn’t come from the front. It didn’t even come from behind. No, my death came from the person I kept beside me for so many years. My heart-keeper, my savior, my protector, my husband, my killer…

    Summer may have been the villain, but her story is one of survival and betrayal. Captured as a witch, she’s “recruited” to fight against the technomancers as a secret weapon. Her marriage to Donarick Thames sets in motion a vicious cycle of misfortune when her once-sweet husband starts to grow more violent, but in the meantime, she’s a badass witch who commands netherbeasts.

    This novella contains spoilers for Sonata, book 2 of Lyra R. Saenz’s Nocturne Symphony. Readers who have not yet read Sonata are advised to pause before venturing further.

    Additional Warnings: Mentions of rape, torture, domestic abuse, stillbirth/infanticide, and abortion.

      TIME AND DECAY ARE THE ONLY RESIDENTS HERE. When her boyfriend proposes a camping trip, Lily can’t help but wonder why he decided on Halloween weekend. Not that she believes the superstitions, but only fools go looking for ghosts in a deadzone. Determined to remain the voice of reason, Lily follows her friends into the woods. They may hope to find a few ghosts, but Lily knows better. Ghost stories, after all, are just that: Ghost Stories. They’ll be lucky to find a decent campsite at this rate. What they find instead is much more sinister.

    Lyra R. Saenz

    Lyra R. Saenz is a writer of Science Fiction/Fantasy. A romantic at heart with a love for supernatural horror, she believes that while happy endings don't come easily, they do come, even if it means excising your ex into a glass jar.Born and raised in South Texas, Lyra is a multicultural, eyeliner-wielding member of the LGBTQ+ community, an animal-lover, and a cynic of all things political. She presently haunts the Houston area with her amazingly supportive partner and her feline-shaped void, Violet. Lyra grew up bouncing between her Chicano and Scandinavian heritages never feeling like she really fit in one world or the other.Despite growing up on enchiladas and lefsa, she'll never turn down an offering of sushi or pho. And while her friends were getting boyfriends and girlfriends, she was too busy crushing on dreamy anime and manhwa characters to bother with real people. So with one foot on either side of the border and her head full of East-Asian pop culture, she started creating her own worlds.A lover of all things witchy, paranormal, and ghostly with a side of Victorian-futurism, cyberpunk, and posthumanism, Lyra imagines worlds where the IT tech is a werewolf and the coffee machine has a fairy living inside it but the androids love to take walks down the forest trail and host the occasional bonfire. When she isn't lost somewhere between an inkwell and a notebook, she can be found acting as a throne for the real queen of the household -Her cat and her royal majesty demands snuggles constantly. Or sitting and listening to her partner play video games while she unsuccessfully knits and/or binges her latest international tv show.
