CHAPTER FOUR

You could imagine the shock I felt when I found out we were now soul bonded. Which the way she made it sound, was more iron clad than marriage. I caught myself thinking about what would happen if I ended up hooking up with anyone else from this realm, and as if catching my own private thoughts, she replied, in my head, that it was fine; ideal, even. In Fae culture, it was seen as a sign of great prosperity to have many partners and that the mad Queen of Hearts murdered her husband and went on a crusade, killing every male, fully grown or child. But she didn’t like talking about the Queen of Hearts, it wasn't safe, but if anyone could stop her, you could. Her words arrived in a flood, seemingly communicating multiple thoughts at once. I had to pick out her meaning, plucking up words and arranging them in my head.

Over the coming months: I explored my new home and property, my strength and skills and dexterity increasing, massively. She never liked explaining the basics of how the insanely complicated world of the Fae worked and insisted I entered her mind’s library, to access the information. But every time I tried I felt like my brain was going to overheat and melt from the vast amount of information. It reminded me of filling a balloon in an instant, my brain immediately full and on the edge of bursting. I felt that, given time, I would gain resistance, but there was never enough time. I had to find my soul and hopefully that would be my ticket out of here, but it was so easy to get lost in the unrestrained beauty of my day to day life in this place. The world of the Fae has a way of making you forget, and for a time, I did forget.

One day I rolled over in bed, my sweet bunny baby always slept in late. The morning pierced through the 10,000 acre treeline and it had to be around noon. Everyday was perfect weather, there was never any rain or cold, and today wasn’t an exception.

I moved one of her ears out of her eye and one of her eyelids fluttered open. “I’ll kill you, I swear to the gods, bring me my knife and hammer and some poison from my collection, the black bottle.” To which I responded by pelting her head with kisses. She slapped and clawed at me and kissed me back.

She liked to collect things, even dangerous things like weapons and poisons. I wondered why she would ever need them, living in the Spring Court has been a dream, although there always seemed to exist a dark cloud over the horizon.

I leaned over and kissed her eyelids and she half-hissed and half-purred and threw the sheets over her head. “You don’t mean that,” I was at least pretty sure she didn’t. As much as she resented me and herself for loving me, she loved me.
