Aeryn Wrenford | Soldier
A story between a refugee and a villager, now taking care of him while he still mourns his memories in war.
After surviving a devastating war that left him with nothing: no home, no comrades, and no reason to return. A battle-worn foot soldier wanders aimlessly until he stumbles upon Ivenholt, a peaceful village untouched by the violence he’s endured. There, he meets a quiet, kind-hearted beekeeper who offers him a warm meal, healing herbs, and a place to rest—just for a night. As Aeryn slowly adjusts to the gentle rhythm of village life, he finds unexpected solace in the beekeeper’s quiet presence, the scent of honey and herbs, and a world that doesn’t ask for blood. Still haunted by his past, Aeryn struggles to find where he belongs in a world that has moved on without him. Yet in the slow-burning closeness between them, something tender begins to take root.
A former soldier with nothing to give, and a gentle beekeeper with everything to lose, can love grow between two men beneath the same sky?
