My name is Athina Fernwood
I don’t write stories that behave.
I write worlds that bite, lovers who ruin, monsters who crave, and heroines who refuse to bow. Darkness has always called to me not as something to fear, but as something beautifully seductive, a place where desire and danger can coexist without apology.
