Sleep was elusive. Ronna managed to doze off once but then she dreamed Marcus was there with her, making passionate love to her. She woke up in a sweat, sitting upright in the bed and fanning herself with one hand. It was one thing to be in bed with the man, but it was entirely different to dream he was there. The passion was all too real. She threw back the cover and levered herself out of bed.

The sun was streaming in through the tiny window high on the wall. Ronna stretched her arms over her head. Her body was tired from want of sleep. She got dressed and went to inspect Tiana sitting in the cage in the corner of the room. The little fairy was seated in one corner of her mirrored prison, her legs stretched out in front of her, her wings drooping around her shoulders. She sneered at Ronna as she drew near.

Ronna smiled slightly, amused at the discomfort the fairy exhibited.

“I’ll make you a deal.” She waved one hand and lifted the spell of silence she had cast over her last night.

“Let me out of here!”

“You tell me where Drucella is holding Marcus and I’ll consider releasing you.”

The fairy scrambled to her feet and glared at Ronna. “Release me first.”

“Do I look like a fool?”

She cocked her head, as though deciding how to answer Ronna.

“Never mind.” Ronna waved one hand and turned. “You just cool your heels in there for a few lifetimes—”

“Wait! Wait!”

Ronna halted her feet and glanced at the fairy. She was pressed against one side of the cage, her eyes imploring.

“Your vampire sleeps…in Drucella’s bed.”

The fairy’s words shot through Ronna’s insides, filling her with cold dread. She bit back a nasty retort and approached the glass cage.

“Prove it.”

Tiana giggled and waved a tiny hand. Immediately a picture of Marcus asleep in Drucella’s bed flashed into the air.

Ronna gasped and bit her lip. She stared at the figment the fairy cast.

Blond brows drew together in dismay. “You are as treacherous as your mistress. How do I know this is the truth?”

“Your vampire is no longer in the dungeon—but in Drucella’s bed.” She laughed loudly, high-pitched.

Ronna turned from the fairy, lest she see the shock on her face. Perhaps she was telling the truth after all. Maybe Marcus was really asleep in Drucella’s bed—that didn’t mean the two of them had sex.

Get a grip!

She paced the room, her hands on her hips. The thought of Marcus with another woman made her hackles rise. And tears come to her eyes. She swiped one hand across her face, banishing the moisture.

Turning quickly to Tiana, she glared at her, making her inch to the back of the cage. “Tell me where Drucella is holding Marcus’ brothers. Tell me now or I’ll cast you into oblivion!” She raised one hand in a threatening gesture.

Tiana shrieked and cowered on the floor. “It will do you no good to know, for you will never be able to free them. Drucella has them under a time spell.
