Chapter 16

A week later Kir hadn’t heard from his father. He’d told Bea that could be a good thing or a really bad thing. The watch they’d put on Colin’s house hadn’t turned up anything suspicious, which only made Kir nervous. Bea felt awful for him that his father may be the very criminal he sought. She hoped it wasn’t so. But all she could do was hug him when he came home at night and make love to him before they fell asleep in each other’s arms.

Now she sat on the end of the bed. The house was quiet. Kir was away at work. Afternoon sunlight filtered through the window in cool shadows. A weariness she’d never before felt gave her reason to draw her senses inward to do a sort of mental check on her body. And...she sensed something new.

So could that be the reason that drinking Kir’s blood from a goblet hadn’t seemed to perk her up? Why she wasn’t able to fully access her faery magic to make the flowers grow? Because she was...

Bea spread a palm over her belly. It was flat, yet she felt a tickle within, in her very center. And while she’d never been in this condition before, she sensed a certain knowing. Something beyond herself had entered her life. And it stirred within her.

Was she?

She got up and padded into the bathroom to study her naked profile in the mirror. To imagine having Kir’s child was— She’d never given it thought. But to consider it now made her smile.

His species thrived on family. And Kir would want more than anything to have a big brood. Could she give him that family?

Her smile fell and she turned away from the mirror, shaking her head. “It could be faery. Or could be wolf. It could be half and half. Or...it might be demon. He could never handle that.”

Could she?

“Hey, Short Stick!”

Kir tromped up the stairs. Stopping in the doorway to the bathroom, he leaned there, hooking a thumb in a belt loop, and looked her over. “I will never get tired of coming home to find a naked faery waiting for me.”

She stretched out her hand and he went to her, taking it. The bond mark glowed brightly, and it gave her the confidence she would need to tell him her suspicion.

Walking him backward until his heels met the tub, and Kir sat on the edge of the tub, Bea stood over him and drew her fingers down the side of his face, tracing the line of his beard and back up to his lips, which were warm and soft.

“You’re such a fine man. So handsome. I’ve even grown to love your beard.”

He stroked his chin. “You didn’t like it?”

“Not initially. But now I couldn’t imagine you without it. You’re so good to me. We don’t belong together, you know.”

“Why not?”

“Would you have ever chosen a half-breed faery if you’d had the choice?”

“I wasn’t given a choice. And I’m not at all displeased with the results.
