Tricked by the Enemy: A Dark Robin Hood Retelling

Rate this book
Imagine Loki pretends to be Robin Hood... and Maid Marion is a witch who he burns for.

They call me a god.
A trickster.
A monster.

But what am I now, stripped of power, broken and bleeding in the dirt of a mortal king’s hunting ground?

A man. A man who should have died.

She found me. Marion. Daughter of England’s tyrant king. A witch in hiding, fire in her veins, fury in her eyes. She saved me when I should have burned. She hid me beneath her father’s nose. And in doing so, she bound me to her.

I swore off women. Desire makes fools of men—and I am no man’s fool. But this woman? She makes me furious. Every glance, every word, every time she dares defy me, it stokes a hunger I cannot smother.

She says she hates me. Perhaps she does. Yet hatred blazes hot, and her flame calls to mine.

So I give her a lie. A name that does not belong to me.
Robin Hood.

If she is the key to freedom from her father’s chains, I will use her. If her forbidden fire can restore what I have lost, I will claim it.
And if she dares to love me—despite the trickster, despite the ruin—
then she will burn with me.
