Bailey wrapped her fingers tighter around the ceramic cup in her19Please respect copyright.PENANA8GTZFgkpZO
hand. She inhaled the scent of the fresh, hot coffee, closing her eyes and19Please respect copyright.PENANAzXS15SNc3j
dropping her head to the glass pane in front of her. She pulled her knees19Please respect copyright.PENANAmFlkNVVO1U
tighter into her body, curling into the corner of the window seat. The glass19Please respect copyright.PENANArL087qybbe
was icy against her forehead, forcing a deeper sense of melancholy into her19Please respect copyright.PENANA0R3Oer4r2L
bones. She hated being home. Here, with him.
Jonas Fee, the ever-present, ever-constant, all-consuming19Please respect copyright.PENANAzi34qWgdHR
patriarch of the clan Fee. The man that, in a fit of pique, had thrown a knife19Please respect copyright.PENANAglJvklIpS1
at her. A hand slipped unconsciously from her cup, fingers finding the now19Please respect copyright.PENANANyLnzFQCNi
familiar threaded scar on her shoulder. Four years she carried this scar, barely19Please respect copyright.PENANAC7ph5ZVsk3
two inches wide, ropy and tight. She could still see his face, eyes wild, mouth19Please respect copyright.PENANA3Te9zACLST
contorted and spewing furious vitriol. All because Bailey Fee wanted to pursue19Please respect copyright.PENANAxT44tKT49i
a career in Veterinary Science, instead of taking her place in the “family19Please respect copyright.PENANALA5SjCFIDB
business“. Jonas never did take kindly to someone defying his will.
She snorted. It was almost startlingly loud in the small third19Please respect copyright.PENANA3WPY3SpuD6
floor bedroom. The scar ached from time to time, an unfriendly reminder that19Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZzkoCYXoV
being related to the Fee patriarch could be hazardous to one’s health. Until19Please respect copyright.PENANAGxplTS25vd
that moment four years previous, Bailey had never experienced the gut burning19Please respect copyright.PENANATFoUml2TcR
feeling of hatred. But…she hated him. Passionately. In the privacy of her mind,19Please respect copyright.PENANAxgDOMB0u2q
Bailey could happily admit she hated her paternal grandfather.
That was the same day Bailey took the money out of her college19Please respect copyright.PENANASwk1eG6yEI
trust and booked a one way flight to Honolulu. She had never thought she would19Please respect copyright.PENANAMTYt1qCdbv
ever again sit in the same window seat that had been her childhood haven. Never19Please respect copyright.PENANAlPdo8BMxj2
thought she’d see these same four walls. She lifted her head away from the19Please respect copyright.PENANA6IigHM0bM0
window, and opened her eyes. She still had boy band posters on the wall. It19Please respect copyright.PENANA5NPdoNsoNt
would be embarrassing if she could only rouse any form of emotion other than19Please respect copyright.PENANAOrtdCzhjRl
pure unadulterated hopelessness.
A soft tapping on the bedroom door pulled her from her morose19Please respect copyright.PENANAO6NgRfL5lo
reverie.
“Enter.” Her voice cracked, her throat locking around the word.19Please respect copyright.PENANAyKTIuHxUGw
She took a swift drink of the nearly tepid coffee she still gripped in one19Please respect copyright.PENANA89yyl05FqI
hand. Clearing her throat, she tried again. “Come in!” The door to her current19Please respect copyright.PENANA0uOSvJxEUS
sanctuary flung open in a wide arc, bouncing noisily off the wall. “Bless it!19Please respect copyright.PENANAE7CG7FutBA
Silas, the least you can do is not break the damn door.”
“Oops.” Silas grinned unapologetically. “What’d you do, B,19Please respect copyright.PENANA9zMDuo88Ce
grease the hinges? Geez.” Bailey rolled her eyes at her cousin as he awkwardly19Please respect copyright.PENANA8OutdZQeIa
shuffled into the room, a plate piled with eggs, sausages, and bagels held out19Please respect copyright.PENANA9IqPLEL29A
in front of him. “I come bearing a peace-offering.” He gestured at the plate19Please respect copyright.PENANAcByYylf0ql
before pushing his shaggy black hair out of his eyes.
“It’s not you that needs to broker peace.” She replied, slightly19Please respect copyright.PENANAbUNWA3tDMA
petulantly.
“Awww, B, come on. He only stabbed you once, and that was by19Please respect copyright.PENANAZpM7EhvY1T
accident.” He expertly side-stepped her luggage and held the plate out to her.19Please respect copyright.PENANARLZW9FZp3N
“Imagine if he meant to do it. You wouldn’t be here, being the brat I know and19Please respect copyright.PENANACSBHoYsDtv
love, that’s for sure!”
Bailey snorted again, derision written all over her face as she19Please respect copyright.PENANANXpnXPMHar
took the plate. “He could’ve killed me, Silas.”
“But he didn’t. And he did apologize. And kept up a rather19Please respect copyright.PENANAfCC0M4V09P
lavish lifestyle for his favorite grand-daughter. For a full three years after19Please respect copyright.PENANAvinO3UDCRM
that grand-daughter blew her entire college savings doing the Gods know what in19Please respect copyright.PENANAQVkvLIbWgt
Hawaii. I should know, I balance the damn books for the family business.” He19Please respect copyright.PENANAoU39BooH6L
admonished lightly, grabbing her feet and physically turning her away from the19Please respect copyright.PENANAdhwDBiDXEq
window, plunking himself down next to her on the window seat. “Sure, you19Please respect copyright.PENANAfzLht0Wxtz
might’ve had a reason to be pissed. Hell, stay pissed for all I care.” He19Please respect copyright.PENANALtplky488A
gestured roughly at the room. “But keep in mind, Bailey Fee, this is all yours.19Please respect copyright.PENANAIxFVtELvFr
This god-awful house. The business. The running of the entirety of good ol’19Please respect copyright.PENANA4MkR5AeTBH
Clan Fee.”
“I never wanted it.” Bailey replied softly, spearing a sausage19Please respect copyright.PENANAxyriEOy0o7
with her fork. “I hate it here. I hate him.”
“Really? Over an accidental stabbing?”
“He threw a knife at me!” She turned to Silas, eyes blazing. “He19Please respect copyright.PENANAaiENS9xLxl
freaking stabbed me.”
“In the shoulder. You know he’s done much worse for a helluva19Please respect copyright.PENANAWDPrEuTD8w
lot less. Not everyone gets to disrespect him the way you did, B. You know19Please respect copyright.PENANAqB0vM2BWZQ
that, right? You basically spit in his face after the twelve years he raised19Please respect copyright.PENANA7Rt4nDrzbz
you. He’d been preparing you for the transition of power for years!” Silas19Please respect copyright.PENANAYeSug4ebmX
scrubbed his hand over his face. “You know what’ll happen if you don’t do the19Please respect copyright.PENANAhHWcDmRWGP
transition soon. Your dad’s not alive, dude. He can’t do it. You’re the only19Please respect copyright.PENANAyJRaypdR6y
one that’s a direct descendant. If you don’t accept the transition…” Silas19Please respect copyright.PENANAZGCdrm9SYR
trailed off, staring at the plate in Bailey’s hand as he tried to gather the19Please respect copyright.PENANAgbYPulrA5q
right words. “It all ends. All of it. You know that.”
“I know, why do you think I’m here.” Bailey ground out before19Please respect copyright.PENANARDgkrgYIxp
standing to slam the plate on her bedside table. “Why the hell do you think I19Please respect copyright.PENANAKGkRvEf6cv
came back?! Why do you think I gave up my own damn slice of heaven to haul ass19Please respect copyright.PENANATM027uysA3
back to these hills when I’d caught word of his stroke?”
“A slice of heaven that the man you hate so damn much paid for,19Please respect copyright.PENANAnFByp8qymF
y’know. Just in case we’re counting. Did you really need to lease an apartment19Please respect copyright.PENANAuoljxJCRlk
for three thousand a month? Isn’t that just a tad ridiculous?”
Bailey rolled her eyes again, and let out a frustrated sigh.19Please respect copyright.PENANA91cUvsz4ph
“Dude.” She crossed her arms. “Anyway, has everyone made it in yet?”
“There were only two on assignment, they should be here later19Please respect copyright.PENANAOyuxdzhRFy
today.”
“Who?”
“Dallas and Charity.” Silas replied, rubbing the back of his19Please respect copyright.PENANAb0L9Su93VL
neck. “Jonas doesn’t have long. You need to get out of your feelings or go sort19Please respect copyright.PENANAA4mmlzvRV5
them with him. He’s unresponsive, but you can rage at his body.”
“Are the portals still holding fine? And how many crossovers are19Please respect copyright.PENANAfMMfl6i5Xw
expected today? I need a rundown, and maybe access to the logs for the last few19Please respect copyright.PENANAq3wjEDXntY
weeks, just to make sure we don’t have any lingering vacationers.”
“No vacationers, just regulars, and it’s a rest-day on the other19Please respect copyright.PENANAXgE1fC3DSa
side, so no expected crossovers until tonight.”
“Who’ll be coming?”
“You’re not going to be happy, B. Maybe we should just leave it.19Please respect copyright.PENANAle7as9nESw
You won’t even be seeing them anyway, too busy transitioning.”
Bailey bit her lip and groaned. “For criminy's sake. It can’t19Please respect copyright.PENANAsQUFGmtHzw
possibly get any worse. I hate it here!” She flung herself on the bed, prepared19Please respect copyright.PENANA3hahK9VPqa
for the nerves to make themselves known. “Of course the only possible witnesses19Please respect copyright.PENANAdN7K7SXdYq
would be the Royals. All of them, or can we count ourselves lucky and they’ll19Please respect copyright.PENANA8SE0Fyrywl
send just a single representative?”
“They have to witness, B. You know it’s going to be all four.19Please respect copyright.PENANA7fugE1LxX8
You know this already.” Silas sighed. “Jayce, Beckett, Tobin, and Gemma.” He19Please respect copyright.PENANAPlBMRrIKJ8
ticked off the names on his fingers. “And each of their retinues.”
“Gemma?” Bailey sucked in a breath. “When did she ascend?!”
“A lot can happen in four years.” Silas shrugged. “Apparently19Please respect copyright.PENANAzOyb0rI8S7
Winter’s Court is a little more cutthroat in recent years. You can’t predict19Please respect copyright.PENANA1LSmfYMjeh
the nature of the UnSeelie. You know this. At least it’s Gemma. She practically19Please respect copyright.PENANAlLrLSvyhQN
grew up here. Jayce is going to be the issue. Gossip has it that he’s yet to19Please respect copyright.PENANA9LATfV5r8p
find his Queen. You know the Spring Court doesn’t allow a Lordling to sit for19Please respect copyright.PENANAoJqTEaVXBm
too long if there’s not a fertile Queen on the throne. Throws off the balance19Please respect copyright.PENANAPIi1swP7gi
or some shit. They were speculating for a while it might be Gemma, but when she19Please respect copyright.PENANAV3QDcVNFLe
came to visit a few months ago, she said there was no Spark for them.”
Bailey picked up the plate and started picking at the food19Please respect copyright.PENANAznneoauvSM
again. “I wonder what the Spark is like.” She shoved a bite of bagel in her19Please respect copyright.PENANAtyFrYjtK5b
mouth, waving the rest of it around erratically. “Wouldn’t it be great if we19Please respect copyright.PENANAzbR1pcLhbu
could find our perfect partners like that? No guessing, no dating. Just Spark19Please respect copyright.PENANASreaFtdFhp
and that’s it.”
“I dunno, I like sowing my oats, if you know what I mean.” Silas19Please respect copyright.PENANAeUK2Yhaolg
waggled his eyebrows and smirked.
“As long as you aren’t plowing your fields without making sure19Please respect copyright.PENANAkO12MsgECV
the equipment is properly protected, I don’t see why not. But yuck…I never19Please respect copyright.PENANAhIU7wYaqud
needed to imagine you plowing anything. Seriously though, we can’t handle any19Please respect copyright.PENANAdWAMBkSZNg
accidents around here.” Bailey squinted in Silas’s direction. “No unclaimed19Please respect copyright.PENANA2zBgMcRbCE
babies running around. Gods only know we don’t need the bad press, especially19Please respect copyright.PENANA86JQgi0n3Z
if the kid turns out to be an Inherent. You get that, right? You took the same19Please respect copyright.PENANA4NeZD2HYyl
half-ass health class I did.”
Silas pursed his lips, “You’re an Inherent, B. You were almost19Please respect copyright.PENANAYu3Ptfk6gL
unclaimed. Would it be too awful, really?”
“For the human? Yeah, probably. Without proper care, you know19Please respect copyright.PENANAiGkP4RzBmr
Inherents kill their mothers.” She gestured at herself. “The first of many19Please respect copyright.PENANAittrVt4YL5
murders on my hands.” She took another savage bite of bagel. “But that’s life.19Please respect copyright.PENANAIid5g2mCbb
Good ol’ dad didn’t worry about Cassie Timms. And because of his oversight,19Please respect copyright.PENANABxdfLLGiNC
Cassie died well before her natural time, I was deprived the love of a mother,19Please respect copyright.PENANABpl4ioAdgt
and then the bastard had the nerve to kill himself instead of transitioning or19Please respect copyright.PENANAhB0hgU6rFT
making another sibling so I wouldn’t be saddled with this crap.”
“I just love it when you get all nostalgic.”
“Forgive me. I forget what kind of coddled, precious darling you19Please respect copyright.PENANANdzLhHEYbN
are. Pride of your parents. Loving, respected members of Clan Fee. Please, if19Please respect copyright.PENANAcZ6KKiyx0J
my disillusionment is so off-putting, I’m sure there’s actual work for the19Please respect copyright.PENANA7Qtln4jeQ7
personal assistant to be doing, right?”
“I missed you too, bitch.” Silas hopped up and grinned at her.19Please respect copyright.PENANA5FKoZRxDV4
“I’ll see you tonight.”
“Yeah, I’ll be the one up front. You know, the one who pays the19Please respect copyright.PENANAHnDJgkgUIs
price of our freedom with her body and liberty. Yeah, that one.” She waved a19Please respect copyright.PENANA9auFYd5CaV
hand at him dismissively.
Once Silas was safely away, Bailey moved her plate back to the19Please respect copyright.PENANAzUmZDLl0EF
bedside table. There would be no more time for food. In close to an hour she19Please respect copyright.PENANAqo3VnycQ6v
would need to start the ritual preparation. She stood and wiped her sweaty19Please respect copyright.PENANAFL2Ph8vPG2
palms on her pants legs. Nothing quite like the thought of getting ravaged by19Please respect copyright.PENANAFTNQxVjoYx
wild fae Magick to put a damper on even the most potent appetite.
The transition was not something Bailey had asked for. Or ever19Please respect copyright.PENANAi4GmwKQOjT
wanted. She would become a vessel for the Magick that powered the portals19Please respect copyright.PENANAnuQatnjeQS
between realms. She would house the entirety of the wild Magick of Faerie that19Please respect copyright.PENANAj7gg54t4yA
leaked through the portals. Direct descendants were the only ones who could,19Please respect copyright.PENANA56n3gwfRv5
though the Fee clan hosted some of the largest numbers of Inherents. Ancient19Please respect copyright.PENANAc6kxLvKa2V
human ancestors decided to warm the bed of some blasted Fae, and the resultant19Please respect copyright.PENANA4hlZYHl5iw
children could access some remote DNA encoded recessive gene that tapped into19Please respect copyright.PENANAeQLY9w3vUA
the Earth Magick.
Every member of the Fee clan could wield Earth Magick. Inherents19Please respect copyright.PENANA83wTDqctoM
were special because of the ability to mix that magick with wild Fae Magick.19Please respect copyright.PENANAsmzpC6DGa5
The perfect born protectors of the portals. Keeping tabs on crossings, making19Please respect copyright.PENANA742Hv7HSHk
sure no Seelie or Unseelie were wreaking havoc on the human world. There were19Please respect copyright.PENANAsrKacPvsaL
four known portals. One for each realm of Faerie. Each with their own clans to19Please respect copyright.PENANAsPqd4lS6qo
guard these portals on the Earth side. Why the Fae ever wanted to visit this19Please respect copyright.PENANARaxExVL2An
dusty rock had never made sense to Bailey, but that wasn’t for her to question.19Please respect copyright.PENANAuFAwzep9mL
Her duty was simple. Make sure no creature brought undesired attention to the19Please respect copyright.PENANAubA3woZqqf
Fae, using whatever force necessary.
She’d lost count of the sheer amount of goblin deaths on her19Please respect copyright.PENANAlngi7ORSNc
hands, and that’s from the tender age of six, when she first came to the Clan19Please respect copyright.PENANAEvQQ6WbFuy
house. Jonas had taught her several ways to murder the Fae without so much as19Please respect copyright.PENANAfDALYFpU4q
batting an eye. But only the bad ones. The ones that hurt humans. That used19Please respect copyright.PENANAebeibCd54z
them for pleasure or food. Or both.
Both was the worst. She had memories of scores of women, dead,19Please respect copyright.PENANAfVPLKJJWJF
half-dead, and the ones that were just…vacant. No soul left. Every bit of the19Please respect copyright.PENANAMirdZI8O9u
very essence of them, gone, sucked dry. Incubi were nasty assholes like that.19Please respect copyright.PENANASe3GkMsksA
Leaving behind husks of humans, breathing vegetables. Those were the killings19Please respect copyright.PENANAcDntIdiPsa
Bailey maybe enjoyed. She used to think herself an angel of vengeance. A19Please respect copyright.PENANAUNVLdruehl
defender of the human race, a freaking super hero.
Then she grew up. She began to understand that she was no different19Please respect copyright.PENANA4PIrkeafh7
than those she executed. She just had legal reprieve to do so. Possible19Please respect copyright.PENANAvmPt5UgW9r
government grants, if the accounts were notated correctly. Whoever wrote that19Please respect copyright.PENANAYVI24MLjvL
damn grant proposal probably deserved a medal.
Bailey heaved another sigh and flopped on her bed again, feeling19Please respect copyright.PENANAe4hM6C6hwK
the drama of the moment, and a hysterical giggle escaped her before she could19Please respect copyright.PENANADbjwQssAGZ
stop it. The only silver lining in this entire doomsday was the fact that she19Please respect copyright.PENANADmTtXYun98
would get to see Gemma again. Not that she particularly wanted the Sidhe royals19Please respect copyright.PENANAmWeoJKgeq2
in attendance.
She had no knowledge of the other three. But Gemma had been part19Please respect copyright.PENANAoxoen70NtM
of a very short lived, for Fae, foreign exchange program. Each clan had hosted19Please respect copyright.PENANAbQiAzviVrk
an heir to each Fae throne. It was sold as a way to foster understanding and19Please respect copyright.PENANA9Dn2g6gssl
perhaps lead to a furthering of alliances. Not that the Fae were easy allies to19Please respect copyright.PENANAmhVRYVc3TV
have. And what exactly everyone was allied against always seemed to escape19Please respect copyright.PENANAEQXLD2wLRF
Bailey. It didn’t seem as if there was anything to ally against unless it was19Please respect copyright.PENANAmBQtCDEwSe
those Fae that liked to wreak havoc on earth.

Bailey felt her eyes flutter as her thoughts fuzzed. The jet lag19Please respect copyright.PENANA1gOd7AS0nN
had finally caught up to her. She allowed sleep to claim her. There was no19Please respect copyright.PENANAeorbYQg1OF
better way to pass time, especially since she had no desire to give a deathbed19Please respect copyright.PENANAuKXm0e1G8Q
pardon to her grandfather. He should go to the grave knowing the child who used19Please respect copyright.PENANAdnFVL3CkmD
to worship the ground he walked on now hated his guts. Maybe it would make his19Please respect copyright.PENANAJfwmXyJ7cm
afterlife suck. That thought sent Bailey into the most restful sleep she’d had19Please respect copyright.PENANAvBydjZ7rWd
in four long years.
