Page 40 of Surviving Enchantment: Part One
“Wait...so she’s...”
“Extremely interested in sex.She’s just not letting it rise.Her body will soon enforce it.Dark fae are always insatiable in their final trimester.”
Jennel asked, “Okay, how do you know all this?”
“You can tell by the way she chews.She could probably bite through the fork with little effort.”
Jennel blinked.“Oh.Well, at least I know if I am in that shape, you will be watching.”
“Yes.Dem-rah would peel the flesh from my bones if I didn’t.”
“It’s good to have family.”Jennel smiled and got ready to go visiting.
The guys grumbled and stomped down as Jennel’s break in what had become part of the routine was keenly felt.No rolling around in bed to start their night.They were going to be grumpy.She pitied the criminals of Redbird City just a bit.
They were wearing their black shirts and trousers but no vests.It was a nice concession.
Jennor compressed himself and said, “I called Solor.He’s awake and willing to chat with the neighbours.He is curious, though.We don’t normally socialize.”
Jennel blinked as she was boosted into the back of the SUV.“Why not?”
“Because he has his court, and I have mine.”
“Court?”
“Yeah.He’s a wildling king.My horns are sturdier.”Jennor chuckled.
Reymark got behind the wheel.“Though Day-ek may be tied for prettiness.”
They buckled up and drove to the end of the long drive, took a right, took a left, and were heading down another long drive.
Jennel muttered, “Are you kidding?”
Day-ek laughed.“Oh, come on.That was just funny.”
“Right.I was planning an appreciative quicky when we got home, but that has now stalled.”
Jennor snorted.“We promise to be on our best behaviour.We really will deserve to be appreciated.”
“Uh-huh.”She crossed her arms.
The drive was just as long as the one to Jennor’s mansion, and this building was of a similar size, but the fae influence was stark.Light and dark twists of stone covered the side of the building in a forest of leaves and vines.
A sleepy-looking man with a dark burnish to his skin, in the standard XIA uniform, was standing on the steps.When they pulled up, he looked curious.“Hey, Jennor, what’s up?”
“I don’t think we have introduced you to our fourth.Jennel, this is Solor, king of light and dark fae shifters.It’s a niche market.”
Jennel bowed.“My king.It is good to see you being useful.”
Solor laughed.“Jennel, I had heard you had returned to town.How is Corit?”
“Doing well, Solor.He’s graduating this year, as is Jennor’s niece.How is your little sister?”
Solor chuckled.“She’s a trial.Graduating with her master’s in architecture but plastered all over the radio and streaming services.Her arranged engagement should be formalized this summer.”
Reymark said, “You have a little sister?”
“Yes.”He frowned.
