I wanted to laugh. I needed to laugh as I watched this tiny pixie of a girl frolicking across the meadow, but I couldn’t. They may have been little, but something told me they weren’t the kind of creatures you wanted to anger. I guess you never wanted to make any creatures mad. Life was so much simpler when I only knew about humans. But it was all worth it. I looked over at Owen. It was all worth it because I’d met him.

We’d been keeping our hands to ourselves, I figured letting the Dryads know we were involved wasn’t a good thing. I was beginning to understand Allures didn’t get involved with anyone else. The whole not being able to feel emotion thing probably played a huge role in that.

Sky led the way through the lush meadow. Every so often a bird swooped through the sky near us, but otherwise it was quiet enough I could hear the wind move through the grass. Well, aside from Donna talking. We walked for at least a mile before we reached another forest.

“I have always wanted to fly. You are incredibly lucky.” Donna prattled on to Owen. She’d been chatting him up the whole walk.

“Flight is great, but I’m sure being a Dryad has its benefits.” Owen glanced up at the red moon. I’d been doing the same thing myself. It was a reminder we were far from home.

I took a few deep breaths, Owen was only being polite. He wasn’t flirting. I’d never been a jealous person before, but now I couldn’t even hold myself together. I needed to calm down before I got us into even more trouble than we were already. An Allure wasn’t supposed to be in love.

“Ignore her.” Sky fell back to walk next to me. “She’s just excited.”

“I was making sure she didn’t distract him from his job.”

“His job of protecting you?” She leaned in. “You don’t need protection here.”

“I thought I was going to be in trouble. I think I do need protection.”

“His kind of protection isn’t going to help you with the Force. It could only hurt.”

“But I want him here anyway.”

“Listen, you are still human sort of?” Her eyes were kind.

“Yes.”

“Then do the right thing.”

“Which is?” I didn’t actually want to hear the answer because I was afraid of what it would be.

“Send him back home. Give him a chance.”

“He has a chance here. We’re both going home.” I clenched my fists together at my side. From jealousy to anger. My emotions were boiling up and mixing together in a somewhat painful way.

“You already know you want to leave the Glamour Realm? You want to live with the humans?”

“I’m from the human world.”

“So? It’s not like you are going to care about anyone there anymore.” Her words weren’t cruel, they were purely a statement of fact, but they clawed at me in a way that made my emotions more confusing.

She was wrong. That couldn’t be possible. Mom. Her face flashed through my head again.
