Author Guest Post: Wucaii by Pembroke Sinclair




Undying Love by Pembroke Sinclair

One of the themes I explore in my urban fantasy Wucaii is the notion of love. It’s not a new theme; people have been examining love since the dawn of time and trying to figure out it’s intricacies. As a human emotion, it fills us with so many different feelings—some of which are fantastic, others that are crushing.

In my story, I look at “fated love” and how it transcends time and transformations. My main character, Aelana, has become a human-dragon hybrid who had to leave her home planet 500 years ago. Sadly, she left behind her love, Thoran. But when she returns, she discovers that his reincarnation is alive and well on the planet; his name is now Kalen. Unfortunately, Kalen doesn’t remember her from his past life. Still, if they were destined to be together, wouldn’t he still have feelings for her?

Aelana is very excited for the chance to love again, but she’s also uncomfortable because she isn’t the same person she used to be. She doesn’t know if Kalen will accept what she’s become. The story explores the ups and downs of love and what each person does to overcome insecurities and discomfort.

I’m not going to tell you how the story turns out for Aelana. If you want to know if she is fated to be with Kalen, you’ll have to read and find out!
