Off the top of my head, my characters would probably fit well in George RR Martin's A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms tv show. Any magic and dragons would freak them out, but the medieval political intrigue, violence, and death would be just like home! #LitHodgepodge #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters

[Graphic of a talking crow]
Personally, I wouldn’t mind joining the cast of “What We Do in the Shadows.” Guillermo would take excellent care of me, Colin and I would have much to discuss, and I do believe I’ve a solid plan to steal Laszlo’s witch-skin hat.

A Knight in Captivity

An original M/ M Romance Novel By Alvara

Humiliated in the Battle of Poitiers, Niot de Vendôme, a French knight with everything to prove, finds himself captive alongside the king of France by Wolfstanus "The Mori Wolf", an English commander under the dreaded Black Prince of England.

Niot soon finds himself entangled in not only royal political maneuvering and hiding his own shame of missing the entire battle while stuck under his dead horse, but also emerging feelings he develops for his English captor despite himself.
