“Vic?” My voice sounded weak and I hated it. Vic’s eyes roved up and down my body, and a wide, salacious grin spread across his lips like oil. “My my, you look even hotter than I’d imagined you would, and believe me, I’ve spent a lot of time imagining it,” he murmured and grinned. Pushing himself back in the booth, he spread his thighs, clad in skinny jeans, and flexed his hips, no doubt trying to draw my attention to his pathetic hard-on. “What the hell are you doing here, requesting me? You know I don’t dance,” I snapped at him. Vic laughed, and gestured to my outfit, covered tightly by my robe “And yet, here you are. If I’d known months ago that all it took to get Aria the trailer-trash prude, into sexy underwear and ready to dance for me, was $100, I’d have done it long ago.” “I – I hate you. I can’t say that about many people, but I truly mean it about you. I hate you,” I bit out. “Maybe so, but you still want the money, right? And Gus still expects you to work for it. He wou

“Why don’t you blast him through this wall?” Stone suggested to me. I struggled to my feet. Now that Vic was choking, he’d released me. I swayed. I had one shoe on, one off, a blood river making its way down my outer thigh, and I was pretty sure both my nipples were winking at Stone. Add in the rapidly swelling jaw and what felt like a black eye; doing a private dance hadn’t been the get-rich-quick plan I’d thought it to be, only a few hours ago. “It doesn’t work like that. I can’t always…. Make it happen. I don’t make it happen at all, really,” I muttered, feeling woozy. I clung to the wall, as Stone advanced into the room. He had his eyes on me, taking in every inch, even as his concentration, and hand, was still extended to Vic. “If you never use it, of course, it won’t work reliably,” Stone muttered before his eyes fell to my leg. “You need healing.” “No, I don’t, I’m fine. I don’t like hospitals,” I said, just as Vic was released from Stone’s invisible grip. Vic sagged to the

Aria The trailer looked so mundane and ordinary after the scene I’d witnessed at the strip club. I limped in and locked the flimsy door, casting an eye at the gaping hole just beside it. Who was I kidding? If that mad man came here, I was screwed. I headed for Billy’s room. The smell inside was faded, and yet, still strong enough to make me want to cry again. Why couldn’t he be here? My godfather had always protected me and made me feel safe. I wanted him to put his arm around me, and stroke my hair, more than I’d ever wanted anything in my life at that moment. I found the patch-up box easily enough. It was the first time I’d looked in it since he’d died. In fact, it was the first time I’d been in his room in months. It was still too painful and raw. I put the box on the bed, feeling stiff as the adrenaline faded from my muscles and left me feeling shaky and pained. The blood on my leg was dried now, and the place where the glass had cut was sore but manageable. The scratches on my

StoneKilling the human was messy. I enjoyed it.He slumped to the floor in a puddle of shattered bones and ruptured veins, held together by his skin sack. The lust for darkness gradually pulled back inside me. It was always a test, killing humans, seeing as I couldn’t drink their essence, the kill never strengthened me, only diminished, and yet, there was an addictive quality to the feeling. There were fae in the past who had gotten drunk on human pain. I wasn’t one, and I’d never be one.However, this human had to die. He’d hurt Aria and tried to fight me. Laughable and pitiful, and yet, the arrogance of such an act couldn’t be unpunished. However, it had cost me.As soon as I’d finished pulling the life from the worthless bag of bones that Aria had called, Vic, people had burst into the room. Blood was splattered far and wide, and two of the men who had entered turned and promptly vomited their stomach contents on the already sticky floor. The others had attempted to tackle me. I f

AriaSo, the first ticket I could get for a night bus took me all the way to the state capital. It was a huge city, and I’d never even been out of Happenstance before. I got off the bus and wandered through the station, jumping at every noise. I’d always thought the Happenstance trailer park to be dirty and dire, but this inner-city terminal was another level.Homeless people slept in the doorways and under graffitied benches. Police patrolled with hard, emotionless eyes. Was it possible that the crappy life I’d hated in Happenstance had been sheltered and lucky in any way? I felt wretched as I walked through the terminal and out into the still warm city night.The street was busy, cars zoomed past on the road and the smell of fumes and rubbish filled my nose.

“You came? I didn’t know if you would,” I murmured to him. He was leaning against a huge rock that sat at the water’s edge. His arms were crossed and he looked deceptively relaxed. Stone, of House Acanthus, was never relaxed. He didn’t know how to.“I will one day, just not today, and certainly not here,” Stone said. Shit, had I said that aloud?I was glad it was dark and he couldn’t see me blush. “Why not today? There’s nothing expected of you here?”“Isn’t there?” Stone’s voice was closer, and I realized that he’d straightened up, and entered the water. He strode through it like it didn’t matter that he was wet up to the knee. His dark eyes were fixed on me, making my heart race. When he got close enough, he reached out to grab me, and I heard myself giggle and move away. Giggle? I take it back, this clearly wasn’t a dream

AriaI woke for the second time in a few hours, to the immediate realization that everything would not seem better in the morning, because I woke up just as someone carefully tried to pull my backpack out from under my head. I shot up and whacked my head on the branch again, and spun around, just in time to see a young kid, wearing a stained white hoodie and ball cap, running away with all my worldly possession.Oh no, you don’t.“Hey! Stop him!” I bellowed and jumped up, taking off after him. Oooff, the night on the ground hadn’t made me faster at all, and my leg immediately began to throb as I ran. It was still early, only a few commuters were making their way through the park, and they simply stared at me as I ran after the kid, like a possessed woman. “Stop him, he’s getting away!”I rounded a corner and stopped dead. We were out of the park now, and the small street we had run to was deserted. I couldn’t see a single sign of where the kid might have gone. I listened as carefully

StoneHunting Aria was frustrating. The smells of the human world were something else. There was so much blood and decay and just plain old garbage in this world. Of all the places that William could have chosen to hide my bride, he had chosen the human world.I wished I could go back and kill him for treating my betrothed so carelessly. Thanks to him, Aria had grown up in a poor, hellish world, mistreated by men like the one I had killed.Only I was allowed to treat Aria poorly. No one else.She was mine.She’d dreamt of me last night. I could feel it. The dream was really a memory. Of course, the Aria in the dream had known me, remembered me, unlike the naïve, wild, little human she’d become.She was once poised to become my graceful fae queen and now, she would need training and re-education.She’d need taming, and my hand itched to carry it out.I’d loved her once, and I’d paid the price of my foolishness by losing her.

AriaBastian took me on a winding path through the city, past the parts that were pretty and into the parts that were anything but. We entered an area that looked abandoned, and I suddenly started to question the wisdom of wandering quiet streets with a stranger. Who was he? Why was he helping me?“We’re nearly there,” Bastian suddenly spoke, jolting me to the present. He was climbing through a broken door of an old warehouse. Wind whistled through the cracks in the broken windows and the air was damp and full of old, dead things.“Nearly where?” I muttered, following him slowly. He smiled at me, and didn’t respond. We walked across the cement floor and Bastian found an old rickety staircase that led downwards into a dark space. I paused at the top.“I’m not sure I want to go down there,” I confessed.“You have to. It’s too cold up here to sleep, and besides, I can be dangerous to sleep out in the open. I promise I’m taking you somewhere legit. Don’t worry so much.”Bastian swung down
