shifter who
stayed in cat form most of the time, he especially loved the
feeling. He was 6’4 and had blue eyes
and long blonde hair that fell to his waist.
“ How is my
granddaughter , Monroe?” Lachlan was short
but had a stern presence and a square bearded jaw. He had blonde
hair and violet eyes the same color as Gretchen. She knew nothing
about her Fae grandfather; her mother didn’t even know of his
existence.
“ She was doing fine, but
we encountered some problems.”
“ What kind of
problems?”
“ Please
forgive me master. She went on a date with a vampire.”
“ What!
You idiot! You were instructed to watch over her. This
is inexcusable.”
“ There is more my
master.”
“ Go on.” Lachlan
hissed.
“ She came back from her run
in the woods smelling like Fae. Please don’t be angry
Master.”
“ Find out who the Fae is. I
have nothing more to say to you.” The glass fogged up and was once
again clear. Monroe reverted back to cat form and walked back into
Gretchen’s bedroom. She was sleeping naked curled up to her pillow.
He had been her watcher for two years now and everyday he loved her
a little more. He knew he could never act on his love, she could
never even know of his true form and her grandfather would never
allow such a thing. He jumped up on the bed and snuggled up against
her naked breasts and fell asleep as he purred.

Adrian was having a beer in
his living room after speaking with the king as another image
appeared on his glass. It was Queen
Maryebella. She sat on her bed in a pink silk robe with two half-naked men.
“ My Queen. This is such a
wonderful surprise. What can I do for you?”
“ For starters get off your
ass and tell me what you’ve decided regarding the Seelie
mistress?”
“ Of course my queen, it has
been a difficult decision but I think I will take your most
generous offer. I have not located her yet but I will keep you
informed on my progress.”
“ Excellent.” Maryebella
waved over one of the men and he reached under her robe and began
fondling her breast as he kissed her neck. She began moaning as he
teased her nipples pinching them lightly. “As you can see I have
things to do, inform me when you locate her.”
“ Good tidings and generous
lovers my Queen.”
As the image in the glass became clear once
again Adrian wondered how he was going to manage to make everyone
happy and not get himself killed. Juggling Fae royal courts was a
delicate process; one that he’d managed to do quite well until now.
He feared his luck was running out.

Cayden was reading his favorite Fae romance
book. He hadn’t had the touch of a woman in so long reading about
it was all he could do.
Fiona entered his small cabin in the other
realm’s deep forest. She looked worried, and he was always good at
sensing emotion. She normally came twice a week with a smile and
supplies, but today she had no smile or supplies, this wasn’t a
normal visit.
“ What has given you the
worried look on your lovely face Fiona?” Cayden asked as he put
down his book to greet her. Fiona looked like a very motherly type.
She was part brownie and pixie with a short stub nose and small
wings folded on her back. She was very short at 4’8 and had a plump
body and silver hair and eyes to match.
“ I have just spoken to your
brother Kieran.”
“ Is he doing well?” Cayden
asked as he gave Fiona an affectionate hug.
“ He says he has a plan to
bring you out. He wants you to contact him.”
Cayden looked at her with a skeptical look
on his face. “I have always had faith in my brother, I knew he
wouldn’t leave me here to rot for eternity. See I told you Fiona he
was just waiting for the right time.”
“ Cayden you are a wonderful
man, I fear you have more faith in your bother than I do,” she said
with sadness, despite Kieran’s good intentions she knew this would
all be about him.
“ Call him tomorrow, he has
a secure portal.”
Fiona had dedicated her
