    Summary

    Calm, collected and steady, are adjectives that follow Tissaia everytime she appears on camera.

    Scandalous was rarely used to describe her, even now, at the biggest cinematic event of the year, her outfit was a brown suit paired with a black shirt, nothing out of the ordinary, but the word would certainly fit the woman clinging to her arm.

    Summary

    “You’re playing with fire, Yennefer,” Tissaia warned, a hint of regret in her voice.

    The younger mage closed the small gap between them, gently but firmly grabbing Tissaia’s hands with hers.

    “Maybe I’ve always been drawn to the flames,” she replied, her eyes never leaving Tissaia’s.

    Summary

    Duchess De Vries rubbed her temples. In front of her was a pile of letters, all involving some complaint, bills that needed to be paid or problems that she was supposed to fix? She felt more and more overwhelmed by the task bestowed upon her.

    Since her husband Vilgefortz had died, she had managed the Aretuza Estate herself. She didn’t mourn his passing since their marriage had been a loveless one. Her husband had only been interested in money and business and screwing the chambermaids.

    But on days like this, she sometimes felt out of her depth. She just longed for a quiet day where she could sleep in, walk her hounds, drink tea and read a book. Tissaia felt the exhaustion creep in her joints as her shoulders tensed from sitting behind her desk all day. They really needed an addition to the staff.

    If only she knew what she'd gotten herself into when hiring Yennefer for the task of lady's maid...

    Summary

    The rope doesn’t restrict Yennefer’s breathing in any way, but it is a constant presence, a slight pressure on her ribs every time she inhales. A perpetual embrace, tightening and loosening in the rhythm of her breath.  


    An involuntary shudder runs through her whole body, and with Tissaia this close, she has no chance of hiding it.

    -----

    Tissaia, Yennefer, a few bundles of rope, and a whole lot of messy feelings about love and power.

    Summary

    Petals descending from the ceiling. Yennefer knew right away it was Tissaia, from way above up in her study, honoring her fallen girls. She looked at them, admired how they fell silently to cover the freshly dug graves.

    Then the pain came.

    Sharp, burning, unexpected.

    Yennefer gasped.
