The Clovenwood Collection

Clovenwood Collective is a small town run by Geo and Cosette Whisperglen, ancient immortals with a shady history and an even shadier son. Five hundred years of protection from the outside world; it’s only cost is one favor from each generation that lives there. The rules are simple. If you’re asked to do something, you do it, and if you say no, then your family is exiled, forever. Late one October evening, almost a year to the day of their aunt’s death Kace Ashgood received his invitation in the mail. It was expected, but the pretty pink envelope sat on the hallway table like a dark storm cloud ready to strike. The Ashgood boys had heard the stories. They’d witnessed the aftermath of Geo’s so-called favors, and in the end all they could hope for was Kace’s safe return.

Being the middle child, Oren had always felt out of place and ignored. Even if he had told Kace and Ward about the visit he’d received, he doubted they would have listened. The soft whispers, at his bedside, the blanketed warmth of an embrace that felt more familiar than any core memory comforted him. His aunt had told him ‘it’ would come, and it had, only now the sweet nothings had turned into warning sirens. Guided by the sweet temptations of a Death Forger, Oren’s brother has been marked for demise, and Oren might be the only one who can stop it.
