The Mysterious Duke Romanov

The man let out a long and arduous sigh. He did not know why this woman was always putting herself in dangerous and risky situations. She was not Leland, who could brave the winter's storm.

As far as Leland was aware of this winter's tempest, this storm of snow, gale, and hail was another doing of the witches. Even though Leland knew one witch who was a friend, the truth was that witches operated in covens.

Unlike werewolves who operated in a patriarchal society, the witches were matriarchal and the reason why they were primarily helping the werewolves was to get a bigger share of the continent.

An alliance to bring down the far more numerous human kingdoms, it was an agreement unlike any other. It also helped that Leland's mother had close ties to the witches.
