Chapter 4

No Rush

Marcellus ushered Nina to a room. When they entered, she looked at him. “How do you know that this room is free? What if it is a special room to Master Benson?”

“It isn’t. I checked the map before we came down here.”

“Map? What map?” Nina looked surprised.

“I’m kidding. My species has a unique ability to get from place to place. And mine is even more well-honed than most because I spend so much time with other species. I don’t usually need an eagle-eyed view to know where to go.”

Nina ran a hand through her bouncy locks. “I have no idea what you two were just chatting about. But I suppose if you guys understand, then it will be just fine for me to try to get some sleep and head home in the morning.” She pulled off some of her jewelry and placed it on a dresser.

“Actually, I was hoping to spend a bit more time with you.” Marcellus’ voice was gentle as he said it.

Nina looked at him for a moment. “Oh, haha. Very funny. Well, I know where I am sleeping, so you can leave.”

“I’m not joking. But either way, we still need to send word to your family that you are here. Unless you want to unnecessarily worry them.”

“Oh, no, of course not. You are right. So how will you get this message to them?”

“At this point, I think that a bird might be safest.”

“But humans use that method a lot. It can be quite slow.”

“Yes. I do realize that. But, I really am…” he scratched his head. “We could use another method. How much do you know about non-humans? Like, um, fairies?”

Nina shrugged. “Not much. About the extent of my father’s knowledge was that she just wasn’t human. And since none of her family ever visited, I never learned anything beyond the fact that they exist. Whatever magical abilities they have, it doesn’t seem to be something I inherited. Since it didn’t seem relevant, I never really tried to find out anything about them.”

Marcellus tilted his head to the side. “What makes you say that?”

“There wasn’t much I could learn. I mean, it was mostly myths and legends. I didn’t want to be fooled into thinking something wrong about an entire species.”

Marcellus gave her a warm smile, “I meant what made you think that you didn’t have any abilities?”

“Well, because,” she looked at him intently, “well, I’ve never… done anything that wasn’t human. Oh, and Master Benson’s barrier doesn’t stop me.”

Marcellus walked up to her. “Do you mind if I touch you?”

“What?” Nina thought about stepping back at such a bold request, but she couldn’t imagine that he meant it the way it had sounded. It was strange that he would ask now, especially since he had already touched her a number of times, but she felt too shy to ask him about it. Giving her head a little nod, she watched as he took her hand in his good hand. He lifted it up in front of her, then placed his hand on top of her palm.
