“Fine.Set up a trust fund.Buy them a pony.Demuel will love that.”
He laughed.
Nylora looked at Emmers talking to Jennel, and then Jerrik came pelting toward Kairek.“Aw.Look.He’s acting all dad-ish.”
It was a sweet scene.Kairek had his hand on Jerrik’s shoulder, and they remained in line for tacos.
“I didn’t know that Iris was here.Oh, look.Amy drove them.”
Solor sipped at her lemonade.“Wow.What will happen next?”
She grabbed the lemonade back.“I don’t know, that’s why I am watching.”

Iris was talking withKairek, and where the Dullahan was, Emmers was.That was true, but now Emmers was stalking toward her car.
Amy looked at the vested midsection outside her window.She rolled the window down.“I don’t suppose I can get a milkshake?”
Emmers ducked down.Blond hair, tanned skin, and dark blue eyes all made him look like one of the guys from back home.“You work for the XIA.”
“Yup.”
“Which is how you know me.”
“Also, yup.”
“Will you get out of the car?”
“Nope.”
“Why not?”
“I’m short.”
He grinned.“Most people are around extranaturals.Like, Jennel short?”
“Oh, god no.But, like...nipple height on you, and you are a close talker.”She shrugged.“Don’t want to get a crick in my neck.”
He grinned.His canines were pointed, even in human form.“Amy, please come out.”
“Nope.You are not the boss of me.”
“Are you coming to the rehearsal dinner?”
“Nope.”
He was getting frustrated.“What about Nylora’s baby shower?”
“Nope.”
“The wedding?”
“Sort of, but I am a vendor, not a guest.”
“What are you doing at the wedding?”
She smiled.“Something.”
