They Made My Bonded Golden Deer a Shawl, and Paid Dearly

Chief Archmage Diana descends from the Silver Moon Academy to attend the wedding of Sunny, her bonded golden deer—only to find another bride wearing Sunny's gown, pendant, and skin. Sunny has been butchered alive by the family she trusted, deceived by a serpent monster who stole her place. They think Diana is a helpless relative. They don't know she is the Academy's deadliest huntress—and she has come to make them pay.
