The Gift
In the world of The Goblin Twins
Not every gift is freely given.
Sah’dren has been imprisoned in his own home for years, isolated and forced into a life of abuse. And Mother’s birthday gift to him is just another means of control. He can’t let the injured slave suffer the same way he does, even if the elf wants nothing to do with him.
Alone, they are divided, but perhaps together they can give each other the greatest gift of all: freedom.
