Synopsis

In 'The Well at the World's End,' William Morris crafts a richly woven narrative that intertwines myth, romance, and adventure within a dreamlike medieval setting. The novel follows the quest of a young man named Ralph as he journeys through fantastical landscapes in search of a mythical well said to grant eternal happiness. Morris's prose is lyrical and evocative, utilizing archaic language and intricate descriptions to transport readers to a world reminiscent of Arthurian legends. This literary work stands as a significant contribution to the genre of fantasy, reflecting the ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement and Morris's belief in the transformative power of art and beauty. William Morris, a preeminent figure in the late 19th-century English arts, was as much a poet and designer as he was a political activist and social reformer. His deep appreciation for craftsmanship and medieval aesthetics informed his literary works, driven by a desire to revive the spirit of a bygone era in a rapidly industrializing society. This novel, published in 1896, encapsulates his vision of a harmonious world where beauty and simplicity reign over the chaos of modern life. Readers seeking to immerse themselves in a narrative that transcends mere escapism will find 'The Well at the World's End' an enriching experience. Morris's exploration of love, ambition, and the quest for fulfillment resonates deeply, inviting contemporary readers to reflect upon their own pursuits of happiness amidst the complexities of modern existence. This book is an essential read for anyone drawn to fantasy literature that is both profound and aesthetically engaging.

Instead, I walked away like a fucking idiot and worst of all I hurt you when I had no right to.

The Alpha Who Saved Me

Stacy Rush

They came in and wiped out my pack, leaving me an orphan at the age of fifteen, but then Alpha Declan came in and saved me, bringing me into his own pack. I've been living with the Storm River pack for three years now, training and learning how to fight, so when the time comes, I can kill the Alpha that took my family and pack away from me.But what do you do when you start to fall for the one who saved you to begin with? The one that took you under his wing when you had nothing left? The one who kissed you first, and made you feel things that you didn't feel before? I shouldn't be with him; he isn't my mate. I've yet to scent my mate, but Declan is too delicious to pass up. He's already saved me once, but can he save me from falling for him when I know my Goddess-given mate is out there somewhere?
 
I feel us moving and then I’m being placed on the hood of his Tesla. This puts me so my core is up against his hardness, and oh my Goddess, he feels monstrous! It’s a good thing that I’m not his mate, because I don’t think I’d be able to take it. It doesn’t stop me from rubbing against it, though, as tingles begin to form, and I moan.“That’s it, sweetheart, rub yourself against me and come for me. I want to see what you look like when you fall apart in my arms.” His command washes over me and I come instantly.
