Forbidden Bond: A Velthorn Tale
Forbidden Bond is Book One of the Pilgrims of Fate series — a nine-book Kinetic Romantasy epic by Chadwick Rye, set in the high-fantasy world of Velthorn. When eighteen-year-old elk rider Mikhail rescues a voiceless half-goblin woman named Anora from a brutal mountain pass assault, what begins as an act of defiance against his kingdom’s deepest prejudices becomes something neither of them expected — and something a fallen god has already marked for destruction. Serialized chapters follow Mikhail and Anora across a world of ancient prophecy, a corrupting obsidian ring, and the shadow of the Mad God Sanctus closing in from every direction. Dark theological lore, explosive action, forbidden romance. New chapters post regularly, free to read.
