Summer looked over Alys’ shoulder, at the empty cabin and the open window, large enough for a fully grown fairy to fly through. “I guess he decided to go by himself.” She shrugged, not bringing up the possibility that he might’ve just chosen to end things his own way. Lucien would probably find...

No ordinary missus would refer to the princess as ‘little Maeve’. Caleb knew he was accompanied by royalty, but this woman by his side… She wasn’t just royalty. Her son, the sour faced prick, was the royal advisor. Her daughter, the one she believed to be missing, had been dead for years. Caleb...

It was most likely just a nasty coincidence, but Caleb had to put his mission aside to make sure that’s what it was. After the man had left, he wondered if it hadn’t been his subconscious that made him see her in other people’s faces, he had only spared him a glance, after all. It was a waste...

Getting mistaken for another servant was awfully common in that line of business, and was not what caused Caleb to freeze in place. What did was the man that had joined them - tall, blonde, with orange eyes like hers. It wasn’t just the way he looked, but the way he reprimanded as well. Caleb...

Summer didn’t particularly care, but she looked like she did. “Should we break in?” It was the obvious thing to do, considering he wasn't answering, but she wouldn’t be the one to do it. She wouldn’t want to hear it from the captain that she was responsible for damaging his door. *** Caleb...

“Sure thing, boss.” Summer said, sliding out of the office after Argent. She asked around about the whereabouts of the captain, and someone mentioned they saw him hurry to his room, which saved the woman plenty of time. When she got to the door she knocked and waited, but no sound came out...

Getting in was a lot easier than Caleb had anticipated, but he wouldn’t let his guard down because of it. He thanked the guards and after their backs were turned went down a set of stairs, where he knew the service hall would be even though he’d never visited that house before. Despite the...

“Christian O’Cale, I’d like to speak to the residence’s butler, please.” Caleb said, keeping his shoulders down, as well as his head. The guards’ body language didn’t show any sign of concern about this stranger that had just appeared at the gate, a poor man with an ugly scar in the place of an...

The sun was about to set when Caleb landed on Goswick’s shores. The beach was shockingly empty, with no one but him standing on the thin sand for as far as he could see. Without thinking much of it he made his way up to the street, equally soulless. It wasn’t until he neared the castle’s walls...

Summer smiled and raised her chin at Alys’ conclusion. Sure Lucien wasn’t great company, but at least he had that bracelet. Plus there would be plenty of people there for him to suck the blood out off besides her if he wanted to. “I’ll take care of the wolf, let him loose if needed. It only...

The set he had picked for this afternoon was jade green, with golden carvins of intricate patterns. Solomon couldn’t taste it, but he could still feel some of the warmth as the liquid slid down his throat; the only kind of warmth he’d been able to feel for the last few decades. “Are you...

Great, the silence was gone. Klaire reattached the bottle to her belt and glanced at Ishaan, who walked by her side. “Good ale will do it for me.” She said, the memory of the cold drink making her mouth water. Some of the best memories she had of the academy were spent in the local tavern with...

He couldn’t stay like this for long. Blood had started dripping to his sleeve, but before it got too bad, Caleb untied the red bandana covering his forehead and wrapped it around the wound. An epiphany came to him sometime during his breakdown, calming down his nerves as a consequence. Caleb...

From afar, Naveen watched the exchange. He saw Riley pull the fabric back down, hiding the reptile-bird creature, and stare at Sinead with childlike wonder, the same way he looked at his creatures. The vampire knew what he was thinking. He was thinking “what does she look like on the inside?”...

Argent joined them, and Summer remained quietly watching from the corner of the room. The nerves were high, and the last thing she wanted was to bring attention to herself, but there was one thing no one was bringing up. “Wouldn’t it be smarter to split into smaller groups?” She asked. “If...
