We must have dozed because a knock at the door had us both sitting up fast and blinking around. He reached for his glasses and put them on before giving me a quick kiss and rolling to his feet.

I wiped my eyes and glanced at the clock, knowing I had to be somewhere soon.

Darby opened the door to reveal Lucca carrying a huge box. They shared a surprised look, and then Darby stepped back to let him in, closing the door behind him so no one walking by would be part of this.

“Hey, hi, so um, you guys…” Lucca trailed off, glancing between us.

Darby was perfect and looked to me as if saying the answer was mine to give or not.

It made me smile. “We’re back together. Slowly.” It was my turn to shoot a glance at Darby. “Um, boyfriend and girlfriend?”

“Damn right we are, agra.”

Good.

“Cool, good,” Lucca said, sounding like he truly meant it, but felt awkward walking into something. Or simply awkward and not knowing what to do after what had happened between us. “Well, I didn’t mean to intrude, and I can come back.”

Darby glanced at the clock. “No, I need to handle some things, and lunch is soon.” He frowned. “But you have something to do. I didn’t mean for us to nap, though clearly we needed it.”

Lucca looked at the clock too, and understanding filled his eyes as he smirked. “How are you doing it? Do you need cover? I can pick you up from your class or whatever and give you cover.”

I gave him my most innocent look. “What are you talking about? I’m not doing anything I would need cover for.”

Lucca threw back his head and let out a full laugh. “Tamsin, I’m sure there’s at least a dozen things you’re up to that you could use cover for.”

“At least,” Darby agreed, sounding just as amused. “Let us help and update our tats to cover the whole topic.”

After thinking back to what the queens and Mrs. Von Thann had said the other day, I caved. Good people wanted to help, but didn’t always know how. “Yeah, okay, if you’re sure.”

“I am,” they said together.

I was already wearing what I needed, but I must have slid off my shoes while laying with Darby, so I put them back on before going to my closet. I felt the energy in the room change and spun on them. “You are not coming with. I can do tons you cannot. Accept that and you would be a liability.”

“We would,” Darby sighed. “Though, I do have a suggestion.” He waited until I nodded. “You kept getting back out of the estates and then opening a portal. You’re defaulting to that after years of thinking you were human and doing your activities. Go in because you don’t know the landscape and specific wall or who’s around, but after you open a portal for the hobgoblins—”

“Open one for myself right there,” I groaned, feeling like a moron. But then I didn’t.
