Trying on all of her new outfits for Birk last night had been such a high. Not only did his eyes glow and his hands turn into claws twice, he ended up begging her for sex. Only when Lily had shown him every outfit and teased him mercilessly did she give in. Truth be told, seeing him so desperate soothed all the hurt she’d endured from assholes like Nelor Dobbins.
After making love twice, they snuggled in bed where Birk fell asleep right away. As tired as she was—and as satisfied—Lily couldn’t take her mind off of those poor souls who were trapped inside the castle. Since the Royals were the highest authority in Avonbelle, it wasn’t as if they’d listen if she went there to complain about the injustice. Her luck, they’d toss her into the cell right alongside the others.
“Lily?” a deep voice said, rousing her.
Birk’s voice finally reached her brain, and she bolted upright. “Is something wrong?” She glanced around, noticing that the once dark room was now filled with light. “What time is it?”
He chuckled. “It’s only ten, but I ordered in some breakfast, and it just arrived.”
She hadn’t remembered falling asleep, but apparently she had. Lily tossed back the blanket, placed her feet on the floor, and then stretched. “I’ll be right there.”
“I’ll pour the coffee.”
After she dressed, washed her face, and brushed her teeth, she padded out to the living room. On the dining room table Birk claimed he rarely used, sat two bags of food from Arnolds that smelled divine. “I love their food.”
“Me too.” He carried over two steaming cups of coffee, motioning her to sit down. “What would you like to do today?” he asked.
When she’d had trouble sleeping, she’d given some thought what she wanted to do today. “What do you say we take a trip to the eternal flame?”
His forehead wrinkled. “Why would you want to go there? It’s a long journey.”
“It is only long if we drive.”
“Are you saying you want to experience the Birk Express Flight?”
She laughed. “At some point in my life I suspect something will come up that requires a speedy trip. I might as well see if I’m afraid of flying without a seatbelt.”
He sipped his steaming drink. “I would be delighted to give it a try, but if it scares you, we can always drive there.”
“That would take too long. Let’s hope I’m okay with being dangled from long claws high in the air. Kyle said that when Nessa first carried him, he felt safe.”
“I promise you’ll feel safe too. I’ve never dropped anyone.”
“I’m glad.” Lily opened up her bag of food and sighed when she saw the egg and cheese croissant. “You bought my favorite. Thank you.”
Birk smiled and pulled out the contents of his bag. “Why do you want to visit the eternal flame?”
Lily believed in total honesty. “I’m hoping to run into your fairy lady.”
“She’s hardly my lady. You are.”
Lily waved a hand. “You know what I mean—the lady who told you I was in trouble with Toma’s associates.
