LET ME BE YOUR VILLAIN

Cosy fantasy

Draven wanders The Library of All Things Never Written in search of his own deleted story before it’s forgotten, and he fades out of existence. But when the hero of his story breaks into the library to vanquish his escaped villain, Draven is forced to flee with an infuriating ghost librarian in tow. They must find the author who abandoned Draven’s story and convince her to complete it before her hero wreaks havoc on the library in search of a villain to defeat.

Inspired by my love for villainous characters, LET ME BE YOUR VILLAIN is a queer romantic cosy fantasy novella, published both on Substack and Wattpad, originally written as an entry for the Open Novella Contest 2025.
