Welcome to Weekend Writing Warriors, the weekly hop for everyone who loves to write ... and read!
Today's excerpt is from the dark fantasy Imprisoned in Stone. To set, the scene. Cuhlrich, the head of the Brethren has decreed a successor will be created. What Colwynn and the woman chosen for him want is irrelevant. Love is not required. If seduction fails, magic will enforce obedience. Now the Sunday Snippet.

Excerpt

Icy cords of a spell wrapped around his heart. Between one beat and the next, the vice of the geas tightened. He grabbed for a lifeline—the ring his mother had worn most of her life. Light flashed from the garnet stone on his finger.
