I knock tentatively on Liamâs door. I can hear muted voices inside, and soft music. Itâs definitely not a vampire rave in there, andâI remind myself forciblyâthatâs a good thing. Liam answers the door with a wide grin.
âPaige, Iâm so glad you came!â He ushers me inside.
âEveryone! This is Paige. She runs Down & Dirty Cleaning.â Surprisingly there are mutters of recognition. One woman even raises a glass to me, and tips me a wink. I donât know if my impromptu rescue of Shauna that went viral is the reason or not, but Iâll take approval where I can get it.
âRed or white?â Liam asks.
âI...red,â I tell him when I realize he means wine. He hands me a glass and brandishes a fancy-looking tray of fruit, cheese, and crackers.
âSnacky?â he asks. I laugh.
âWhat, isnât that what you Americans say?â he asks, with a smile on his lips.
âDid you hear someone say that to a child?â
âYes,â he admits. âAnd I wrongly assumed âsnackyâ was something all you yanks say.â
âYou sure did, but Iâll take a snacky if you like.â I enjoy the blush that rises to his cheeks as I snag a grape off the tray.
Liam motions me to follow him into the living room, where a group of people are gathered. Theyâre all in their late twenties to mid-thirties.
âThis is Madison, Addison, Chase, Dakota, Aiden, and Ramy.â I nod at everyone, though thereâs no way Iâm going to remember half those names, much less which belongs to whom. All of Liamâs friends seem nice enough; they look at me with open, earnest faces that make me feel a bit uncomfortable, but Iâm the new one to the group so thatâs to be expected.
âI saw you on Friendbook!â Madison or Addison tells me, stepping closer.
âIâm not on Friendbook, but I did see the reblog of the retweet of the video on Woketube.â One of the other women says. Yep, so it was definitely the Shauna rescue mission that had heads nodding when I walked in.
âIâm only on Friendbook ironically,â the first woman clarifies.
âAnd you wereâ¦Sorry, I forgot your name already.â I say.
âNo worries. Iâm Madison, Mads.â She takes a cracker from the tray and nibbles it. âI think what youâre doing for supes is just fantastic.â
âThank you,â I say, taking a sip of wine. âAnd what is it Iâm doing exactly?â
Addison laughs. âDonât be modest. Youâre fighting the good fight. None of us are free until all supes are free.â
âRight.â Shit. They think Iâm some kind of warrior for justice.
âIs the fae okay?â one of the men, who is sporting a man bun, asks.
âShauna, yeah. Sheâs tough. She was a bit banged up but sheâs all better now.â Iâm not going to get into the wing damage that Brent caused. Shauna is still recovering, and there is something vaguely pathetic about her wandering around the house, holding it out at an awkward angle as the gossamer tissue regenerates.
âIs she a client of yours?â someone asks.
I laugh because Shauna doesnât care about things being clean.
