“You need sleep,” Adyen commented.

Sleep was for losers.

Also for functioning active adults that were, as a result, able to focus on their shit.

So…totally not me!

I looked back down at the massive map I had of the three kingdoms. We were in my quarters, but I hadn’t slept since the night before. Instead, my entire defensive plan was spread out in front of me as I played through scenarios of what they could do. I wasn’t tired. In fact, I was so far from tired it was ridiculous. The espresso may have helped.

“You need to sleep,” I chided and pulled my rubber band tighter as strands of hair fell out.

I could see him eyeing my ponytail but I had left one of my loose day scarves on the couch nearby to distract him. My lips pressed together once I realized it was gone. Such a little hoarder.

“Hey, big guy?” I asked noticing something.

“Yeah?” he wondered.

“What is this?” I pointed towards a small clearing of trees that were darker and surrounded by a stream of water like an island.

“That,” he tilted his head, “is the oasis for pixies.”

My nose scrunched. “Fucking pixies?”

“They get a bad reputation,” Adyen stated with humor. “Honestly, they aren’t even that terrible. Although they get a kick out of spreading rumors and causing mischief.”

“Dude,” Athens chuckled looking sleepy and sexy with his eyes a bright metallic sheen. “They literally set fire to a passing carriage just for fun.”

I snorted. “Any chance they would fight for us?”

Both men frowned and shrugged. “I mean, you could ask.”

Athens nodded. “They may say yes. Who knows?”

I sighed and my lips twisted. Then without a second thought, I turned towards the bathroom to get ready for the day. My hair was darker and thicker than normal so I had to pull it back to make me feel more awake. I washed my pale features with soap and water and when the smell of coffee hit my nose, I finally perked up. I smiled as my handsome mage offered it to me with a cute smile. Athens. My handsome Athens.

“Baby, you look so cute,” he teased.

I narrowed my eyes but suddenly Esme was laughing. I looked at my friend who had entered the room. She smiled broadly.

“What?” I frowned.

She shrugged. “Just nice to see you all cute and girly.”

“Fuck you.” I tossed up a tall finger.

“Are we doing that uniform thing you mentioned today?”

Oh!

“Yes,” I smiled and looked to Adyen. “Can you contact Byron or Edwin? I want to see Vegas today if possible.”

He kissed my shoulder as I shivered. Esme raised a singular brow and I bumped her hip as the two of us left the room. My boys followed behind but I could feel how sleepy they were. Me, though? I was suddenly good-to-fucking-go. I finished my coffee and began talking in a more upbeat tone.

“What if we changed the uniforms?” I looked at my friend. “Like, I love leather, right? I mean, who doesn’t? But, still. I want, like, something more shiny.
