“Thanks for coming over. I wasn’t sure who else to call. I don’t trust anyone in town enough yet to ask their opinion,” I explained as I let Sebastian inside the house.

His grunt was low and did funny things to my insides. Why was I so attracted to this guy’s grumpy demeanor? He was the opposite of how Tim was. “What is it that you need?”

A sigh left me as I turned and started for the stairs. “I found these markings in the attic and I have a feeling they are a clue about my family’s Grimoire.”

“And you think I can help you why?”

That time the growl in his voice made me shiver for a different reason entirely. He wasn’t happy about being called on for such a menial task. No doubt he thought I should know how to solve it on my own.

“You’re the wisest Fae I know.”

He snorted as we entered the dim space. “I’m one of the few Fae you know.”

I wagged my finger at him. “Not true. I’ve met a dozen over the past few days. I rather like Mae, even if she’s a busybody. She gave me some agiope candies I’ll share with you after we’re done here.”

He simply looked at me with one eyebrow raised. Apparently offering candy wasn’t the way to his heart. Lifting one shoulder, I pointed to the marks on the floor. “Do you recognize these?”

Bas bent and held his hand about a foot over the floor. “They’re from a summoning spell. It seems Filarion was in your attic recently.”

My eyes went wide at that. “You mean that griffin with all those muscles was in my house? But why?”

Sebastian narrowed his eyes at me. “You know Filarion?”

I bobbed my head and swallowed past the guilt. Why I suddenly felt guilty I had no idea. I’d done nothing wrong. “Yes, I bought a spell book from him. Why was he in here though?”

Bas stood up and put his hands on his hips. “Likely to steal your family’s grimoire. There’d be nothing else Isidora would have hidden in her home. But that she wouldn’t want to fall into the wrong hands.”

“Dammit. I knew he was an asshole when I met him. How do I get it back?”

“How else? You take it. By any means necessary.”

“Will you help me get it?”

Bas shook his head. “No. I’m not going to do your job for you. But I will give you a weapon to use and be there when you take it back.”

Jerk! I wasn’t asking him to do my job. Why did he have to be such a pain? I mean it wouldn’t kill him to make the griffin give it back to me. I’ve faced far more than most in the last few months and I just wanted space to breathe and learn.

“Follow me.” He commanded. He was past the second floor before I snapped out of my anger and followed suit.

I had to run to catch up when I hit the first floor. Once outside, I noticed he was already to the tree line and wasn’t stopping.
