I awoke to the murmuring of voices, one of them definitely my mate and the others… the Hunt, I determined after another minute of listening. They were strategizing how we would enter the Court of Inferno.

Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I sat up and turned to the window. From the stream of light and the position it cast into the room, I guessed it to be about midday. I swept the fabric of my dress off my legs as I scooted to the edge of the bed, shoving it out of the way. A glass of water had been left on the table for me, and I took a long drink, quenching my dry throat. The sleep had done me good. My brain was clearer, my body rejuvenated. It felt as if I just spent a week at a spa being pampered, and I came out glowing, ready to face the darkness.

Padding into the next room where the Wild Hunt gathered, I smirked when all conversation ceased as if I didn’t have demon hearing.

“I presume you slept well, luv.”

“I did. Thank you.” Knowing I had slept so soundly while Ashor had been up plotting and scheming caused a cluster of guilt to gather inside me.

“You have nothing to feel guilty about,” he reassured, eyes watching me.

“Am I interrupting?” I asked, taking a seat at the table scattered with half-drunk glasses of wine or some other type of alcohol. From the nearly empty platters of food, it appeared they had been at this for a while. I wouldn’t doubt the five of them gathered the moment I drifted off.

“My lady.” Beck nodded as I sat.

My cheeks reddened at his greeting. “You don’t have to do that.”

“Do what?” He feigned ignorance despite the ghost of a smirk on his lips.

“Address me formally,” I stated.

Beck’s gold eyes sparkled, giving his already youthful face a boyish charm. “And miss out on the opportunity to make you blush? Not a chance.”

I inched my middle finger up the bridge of my nose, not so subtly flipping him off. “To think I thought we might be friends.”

The quartet chuckled like the idea was wild.

Me? Friends with the Wild Hunt?

Okay, fine. The idea was wild, but oddly I was pretty sure I was growing on them. We’d be friends in no time.

“We were just finishing up,” Ashor informed me, giving them the cue to leave.

“They don’t have to leave on my account,” I said as chairs scraped across the floor. There was something almost comforting in having them in the room with us—like a family, and it made me realize how much I missed the camaraderie of friends and family. It was the little things like my brother leaving his shit all over the house for me to trip on, or knowing my dad left the porch light on for me during those late nights I spent hunting.

No one listened to me, not that I believed they would have. The four demons left without another word, Apollo throwing me a smug wink as he shut the door behind him.
