Taken by a Gorgon

Princess Calla has never fit in with her family's expectations. Necromancers were meant for combat, but all she wanted to do was dance with the spirits. When she has finally had it with her mother's lectures, she takes off into the forest surrounding the Dead City to make her own way in the world. What she did not expect was an encounter with a monster that would turn her to stone. Nathaira had lived a solitary life after being cast out from gorgon society. She was content with her home, her art trade--until her magic lashed out at an innocent woman. An innocent and incredibly beautiful woman. Nathaira quickly tangles herself in a web of lies and deceit that she has no way of undoing without hurting herself and Calla in the process. This standalone romance novelette is set in the world of Domhan na Rùin, in the Dead City of the necromancers. Please check the content considerations.
