A long time ago, a former softpaw led a faction of abandoned strays to a land he called sacred and promising. He promised them a fulfilling life as long as they stayed together and protected their land. The group grew to be strong and healthy under Asteráki's rule, and after his passing they eventually named the land after him.

They lived in peace for many moons, keeping to themselves and never facing any threats. That was until a strange Clan arrived upon their land, and apprehension washed over them. They at first tried to organize serenity with the Clan, but it eventually evolved into cultural disputes and wars, the two of them fighting over the land.

Hollybristle is the prince of AsterClan and grew up on the lands of Astéraki. He saw no means in fighting and despised his own traditions, being assigned to be the general's daughter's mate. He is distasteful of his own Clan, desperate to stop the havoc they have caused and even the discrimination within his own Clan.

When Hollybristle meets Kali, everything seems to flicker with a little more hope. The prince wants to work with the heir, and eventually stop the corruption his Clan has caused.

But little did the two expect to fall in love, while a war is approaching and blood seeps at their paws.

This the blood they spill.

do not at all expect quick updates

I have a fairly busy life + other things I love to do for enjoyment as well. This is a big project and will be worked on as much as possible but Between is also still being worked on more at the moment.

Chapters will be kept considerably short but also not too short. Over the graduation of events, chapters will become longer. No chapter will go shorter than 2.5k words.

There will be LGBT+ characters and possibly some mental illness mentions. Anything against those in anyway will not prohibited in the comment section of this book.

in the end, just sit back and enjoy!
