Tricked

I didn't mean to cross over into Faerie.  It was an accident.  And now... now I'm in trouble.

Have you ever had a really bad day? Like the type where you want to just pull the blanket over your head, go back to sleep, and wake up when it’s all over?

Yeah. Me, too.

It all started with a stupid fight. Honestly, I was probably looking for a reason to storm out of the apartment and get away from my boyfriend’s disappointed sighs for a few minutes. A walk in the nearest park was just what I needed.

What I didn’t need? To impulsively walk through a ring of strange-looking mushrooms only to end up in the mythical, magical world from my mother’s supposedly made-up fairy tales.

Faerie. I’m in Faerie.

As soon as I cross over, I’m lost. The fairy circle is gone, the trees all look the same, and I don’t have any idea where I am, or how I’m going to get home. 

I think I can trust the pixie.

Nope.

Maybe the pair of dwarves who seem so kind?

Yeah. Seem is the key word there.

By the time I’m on my way to the auction block at the Faerie market, I can’t help but stew over all of the ways I’ve been tricked. This sucks. 

And it only gets worse after that…

**Tricked is a prequel novella (~17,000 words) set directly before the first book in the Imprisoned by the Fae series, Trapped. It's the story of how Elle ended up in Faerie, and what led her to be thrown into the infamous prison, Siúcra.
