“Would you like to come in with me?” Lola asked as she tucked her cellphone into her bag.“Nay,” he said, shaking his head as he looked at the chimes beside the door. The thick iron bells clanging in the slight breeze.“I’ll be quick then.”“Take you’re time, I’ll be waiting for you.” Bodach said as he leaned against the porch railing. Looking out over the yard, he let out a sigh as the door closed behind him.***Lola stepped outside, the brown paper package clutched close to her chest. The redwood jewelry box wrapped up nice and safe. She glanced around the porch for Bodach. He had chosen to stay outside, Lola could understand that. If she had been trapped for as long as he had in that box she wouldn’t want to be indoors more than she had to either.Debating with herself about planning a picnic for the men, she wondered if they would like that? Maybe they could go for a hike on one of her favorite walking trails.Looking out onto the well-manicured lawn, she frowned. Bodach wasn’t th
Opening the door to her apartment, the cool air hit Lola in the face and she let out a soft sigh of pleasure as she walked in. Slipping off her shoes. Bodach stepped behind her, his body responding to the sound she made as his eyes moved along the exposed skin of her shoulders. He found himself wanting to hear that sound again. “Where shall I put this?” He asked, shifting the box in his hands. Bodach had a strange feeling about it, but didn’t want to say anything to alarm Lola until he was sure. “Oh, um. On the coffee table is fine.” Lola said over her shoulder as she walked to the kitchen. She passed Lu, Puca, and Merrow smirking to herself as she caught sight or what they were watching with a roll of her eyes. “Really guys?” “Your scrying mirror seems to be broken.” Merrow glanced over to Lola as he spoke, his face flushing at being caught in this act of voyeurism.“The television?” Lola raised an eyebrow, “Seems to be working just fine to me.” “But these men, they’re all her
Walking down the sidewalk, Lola was lost in thought. Unaware of the four men that followed her. She turned down the street, stopping to wait at the crosswalk as she waited for the light to change.Shifting the box to her side as she clutched it with one arm. Smoothing her ponytail. Before all but skipping towards the antique shop as the light changed. An older gentleman with red hair and deep chocolate eyes held the door open for her. His toothy grin sent shivers down her spine.“Thank you,” she whispered as she hurried past him, unable to shake the eerie feeling he gave her.The bells twinkled above the door as Lola walked into Erik’s antique shop. It was quiet except for the whistling of the kettle. “Erik?” Lola called out as she stepped up to the cash register. Sitting the box down gently on the counter, she brushed her hands over her top, smoothing the material down. She couldn’t wait for Erik to see it. Walking out of the back room with his nose buried in a book. He moved towar
Stepping out of the kitchen, Lola walked towards the front with a frown.Why would she have a visitor at Erik’s shop? Then she saw him, his golden eyes blazing as he looked at her and her mouth went dry.Puca stood stiffly by the front door, his jaw clenched as he looked from her to Erik. She knew that he found her attractive, that he may have said that they wouldn’t sleep with her. The look in his eyes said something else, that he wanted to throw her over his shoulder and drag her back to the apartment. Pushing her hair out of her eyes, she tried to quash down the thrill that thought sent through her. She knew she shouldn’t feel this way for someone she’d just met. “Erik, this is my friend Puca.” Lola said introducing the two before she turned back to look at Puca, “Puca, this is my boss Erik. What are you doing here?” She said barely holding her smile in check as she spoke through her teeth.“I came to offer to escort you back home.” Puca stood taller. Smoothing the front of his s
Lola stopped, pulling her hand from Puca’s grasp. As she came to a stop and looked up at him, “I said I was coming back home soon, what are you doing?” “Getting you out of danger.” Puca turned to look at Lola. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes shone in the sunlight. “I wasn’t in any danger.” Lola said as she glared up at him, “Erik is my friend.”Puca held up his hands showing her the healing scorched skin, “There is something in there that isn’t safe.” Lola stepped closer, taking his burnt hand in her own so she could study his palm, “Don’t be ridiculous, why are you hurt? And why do you think there is something in the store that’s dangerous?” “Iron, it was on all of the doors. The windows too, even the bells.” Puca said, watching the wisp of purple hair that escaped her ponytail and caressed her shoulder. “I don’t understand.” “Iron hurts my kind. The runes traced into the box you found us in were sealed in it. I don’t know why it didn’t hurt you.” He brought his
Grabbing a basket as she walked into the store, Lola frowned as she looked at it. Realizing that she was going to need a cart instead. She put the basket down and moved to get one of the carts, the fae already heading into the store. Lola couldn’t help but smile as she took in their wide eyes and amazed expressions as they passed displays promoting various items. “So you come here for all your food?” Lu asked as he slowed down from the others to walk beside her.“Most people do now day, I mean there are people who have gardens and do the whole hunting thing.” Lola said with a shrug as she walked along, pushing the cart. “Did you umm, did you do a lot of hunting before?”“Aye, well, mostly foraging. We bartered a lot, my mum kept a garden.” “Interesting, we don’t really barter and I don’t have enough space in my apartment to do a proper garden. Maybe one day I can have a house with a small garden.” Lola let out a wistful sigh, and Lu couldn’t help but envision a future with her. On
After the grocery store, Lola and the fae headed towards her apartment. They got everything unloaded and a quick lunch was made and enjoyed while Lola introduced the men to cartoons. Their laughter filled the room until Lola’s phone chimed, pulling her attention away. Lola looked down at her phone, unlocking the screen to see a message waiting for her.Erik: Just check to see if you made it home safely.Lola brought her fingers to her lips, smiling while looking down at the screen as she typed back a message.Lola: I did. What are you doing?Erik: Thinking about you ;)Lola blushed as she tucked her legs up on the couch. She was absorbed into the device and didn’t notice the golden eyes that studied her. Moving along her long, pale toned legs down to her pale pink polished toes. Puca bit his lip, fighting back a groan as he watched her from across the room. Jealousy flared to life as he watched her staring at the rectangle in her hand. The way that it made her smile. He liked that s
Lola looked at Bodach. She brought her fingertips up to swollen lips.“Do you?” He asked again, “Does my kiss wipe everyone from your mind?”Pressing her lips together, Lola met his hungry gaze. She thought about his question, in a way it did. In another way, it didn’t. It made her wonder what it would be like to be with him and the other fae men. Would Merrow’s kiss steal her breath away like Bodach’s had? Would her toes curl if Puca pulled her hair, making her gasp in pleasure and pain?Would her heart flutter as Lu’s lips pressed against hers?“Does it?” Bodach asked as he leaned closer to her, and she could feel his hard length pressed against her abdomen. “Does it make you wonder what it would be like, to be with us?”“Yes,” Lola breathed out. She watched Bodach’s lips twitch with a half smile. He leaned in, pressing his lips to hers once more, she moaned at the feel of his hands moving along the sides of her breasts. Teasing, feather light touches that had her shaking, cravi
FOUR YEARS LATERPushing her hair out of her eyes, Lola let out a huff as Lu rounded the corner. A bright green-eyed toddler clinging to his back. Her copper curls bouncing in the slight breeze as he bounced her around the yard."There’s your mum.”“Mummy,” the girl shouted, she pointed over her father’s shoulder, “Auntie Queen is here.”“Lu, be careful with her.” Lola chided with a small smile as Lu galloped her around the yard. She turned her head, looking over at the Queen.“Your majesty.” She said, dipping her head.“Lola, how many times have I asked you to call me Callie?”“It still feels strange.”“We’re family. You’re sister and I are ruling the courts together.”
Bodach moved through the antique shop, searching for any signs of Lola. He could hear Lu and Merrow doing the same. Their movements didn’t cover up the footsteps he could hear above them. He wondered if it was Lola and what she could be doing here.He was more in tune with his primal side when it came to her. He paused, hearing the whispers of voices as Merrow moved closer to him.“She’s here.” Bodach whispered.Merrow nodded his head, looking up. Lu came out of the kitchen, her purse clutched in his hands.“Aye.”A loud crash pulled their attention upwards. It was quiet after that, and Bodach felt anxiety well up in the pit of his stomach. He moved towards the stairs, Lu and Merrow on his heals as they tried to keep their steps quiet.
“Not a word.” Lu squeaked out as he looked up at the towering forms of Bodach and Merrow.“My coileach is bigger than you.” Bodach said. His hand coming up to his mouth to hold in his laughter. Lu glared up at Merrow, waiting for the other man to say anything about his current size.“He is a wee-thing, but hurry on. Be safe.” He said, motioning the other man towards the building. “Let us in when you’re in.”Rolling his eyes, Lu turned away from the others. It would have been more dramatic if he weren’t so small. He was roughly about six inches tall. Already he’d walked around the building searching for an opening that he could fit through. When he’d found it, he couldn’t help but let out a groan.Knowing that he wasn’t going to hear the end
Bodach strode forward, his feet pounding the hot pavement. It would have gone quicker if he were alone. He didn’t want to risk the others doing something rash without him, though. He didn’t trust them not to. He felt the ache as much as they did for Puca.He didn’t want to believe that the other man was dead. He couldn’t accept it. They’d fought together for so long that a world without Puca seemed so empty.“Bodach, wait.” Lu’s hand on his forearm pulled him from his thoughts.“For what? We’re almost there.”“Can you not feel it?” Lu asked, his eyes sparkling in the sunlight.“Lu is right, it’s the magic of the queen. Same as in the forest.” Merrow said, looking towards the antique shop and th
Lola dropped her hands to her sides, spinning around to face Erik. Watching him as he came into the room, she hoped he couldn’t tell that she had been up to something.“I thought you might be hungry.”He said, moving closer to the cell. He sat the tray on the chair that sat outside of her cage, pulling out a ring of heavy looking keys.“You could always let me out,” Lola said, crossing her arms under her breasts.“To eat, I mean.” She added, not holding her breath.“Now Lola, I don’t think that’s a good idea.”Erik chided as he unlocked the door. Moving to pick up the tray, “What happened to Puca?”Looking down at the floor, Lola didn’t say anything as she pressed her lips together, closing her eyes.“So you killed him?”
Lola crawled off of Puca, grabbing his shirt to cover him up. She didn’t want Callie or Erik to see him like this as he struggled to breathe. She pulled her sundress on, pressing her back against the wall as she wrapped her arms around her legs. Her chest shook as she tried to hold in her sob.She didn’t know if she’d killed Puca, but nothing she had done had helped the man she loved.His breathing was shallow, gurgling with the water that had filled his lungs.Lola didn’t know that his connection with Merrow was the only thing keeping him alive.The door creaked open. Lola couldn’t help the fear that ripped through her. She didn’t want to see Erik to be reminded that this was her fault.Looking up at the woman, she put her hand over her mouth.Trying to hold back a sob she knew wouldn’t help her. The seelie
Merrow gripped the soft, cotton sheets as he let out a low moan. Semen shooting from his cock in great ropes as his eyes shot open.His body responding to a stimulation that wasn’t happening to him, but to his lover.“Dreaming of something good?”Lu asked as he stretched his body out beside the other man, smirking at Merrow’s moan as his body shook.“It’s Puca.” Merrow said, his voice groggy with sleep as he tried to catch his breath.“You dreamed of Puca?” Lu asked, as he moved to lay on his side.Propping up his head on his hand as he watched the other man, a tired smile on his face.“No, I could feel Puca coming and my body was trying to catch up to his.”Merrow said as he grimaced, looking down at the semen that pooled across his lower belly. “I wonder what they’re
Lola rolled her hips, whimpering at the feeling of Puca’s cock as he worked it into her. It was a feeling that border lined on pleasure and pain as his cock stretched his girth wider than she had been prepared for.“Knew you’d feel so good.” Puca said in a growling, rasping tone that reverberated through Lola. His warm breath tickling over the sensitive skin below her ear. “Even better than I had imagined.” He moaned low in the back of his throat as he thrust his cock deeper inside of her. Lola couldn’t help the moaning gasp that escaped her lips.His hands gripped her thighs as he thrust himself full into her, savoring the warmth that enveloped him. Holding himself still as he tried to allow her the chance to adjust to his thick cock.“Are you okay?” Puca panted as he pinned her against the wall. His ha
Puca caught Lola in his arms as Erik pushed her into the cell. Glaring at the unseelie king and seelie queen as the locked clicked shut.“He won’t be a problem much longer.” Erik said as he straightened his shirt, his features returning to normal. Taking a deep breath, he smiled softly at Lola, “Be glad I’m giving you this time. Not many would get it. If you had just agreed with me...” He said, trailing off as he pressed his lips together.“What a pity.” Callie pouted as she eyed the two. “He did have a choice, and he chose to stay with her. She reminds me so much of her mother, that spirit that she has.”“That she does. Why don’t you join me for a drink?” Erik said, turning away from them. Callie took a moment to watch the tender way that Puca held Lola in his arms. She bit her l
