Dither the goblin loves stealing and shiny things and mud!She works in the Academy's basement and longs for Aldonas, an uptight professor who won't stop playing mind games. One minute, he's following her all over campus; the next, he's telling her to ""Flee while you still can.""
Aldonas is a strix, cursed with a terrible bloodlust, who's devoted his life to self-control. The last time he was alone with Dither, carnality won the day. Now he does everything in his power to avoid the delicious little goblin.
This Valentine's Day, Dither must rely on Aldonas to fulfill her hallowed duty. When the couple finds themselves in close quarters, desire is victorious again... and again... forcing them both to confront the depths of their desires.
