Chapter Seven

The next morning, Sean had mapped out a different route for Colleen to take to work. A Jenkins Security driver was on his way and would be waiting for them on the street since it couldn’t get into the garage. She’d only be exposed for a minute or so, but a goblin attacking would be easy to spot.

That had to be who was threatening her. He had smelled the odor of a goblin in her office, but none had appeared. They were the sworn enemies of fairies and gargoyles. He’d have to tell Colleen who she was soon or the goblin would get the jump on them. How did one tell someone they were descended from a creature that as far as Sean knew didn’t exist anymore? At least no one admitted their existence.

Had magic gone out of this world? When did that happen and why?

Colleen emerged from her bedroom in a red suit, her hair pulled back in a tight bun. She looked better with her hair down. Sean sat at the kitchen island and wondered why he’d thought that. She was his fairy. His to protect. Not his to love.

“Breakfast?” he said.

He’d scrambled some eggs. He put them on two plates. Colleen looked at what he’d done and smiled. “That was sweet.”

Sean shrugged. “I was hungry.”

She slid onto the stool next to him then picked up her fork. “So we’re going into the office this morning?”

“Aye. It’s the safest place on such short notice. I could take you to Jenkins Security, but all of their rooms are booked up today.”

She scooped a forkful of egg into her mouth. “These are good.”

“Go raibh maith agat.”

“Huh?”

“Thanks.”

“It sounded prettier the first time,” she said. She cleaned her plate then put it into the dishwasher. She leaned against the counter. “When do we go?”

“As soon as the driver texts me that he’s here.”

She nodded. His phone dinged as he put the last bite of egg into his mouth. He slipped the phone out of his pocket to look at the screen. “He’s here.”

She grabbed his plate and fork. Guess she was eager to go. He stood.

“Where are we going?” she said.

“Out to the back entrance,” Sean said. The driver had circled around and found the back more secure. He wasn’t going to argue. “Down the elevator.”

She nodded. With her briefcase in hand, she pushed the button. Her elevator door opened and he climbed onto the car after her. He watched her in his peripheral vision. She’d never know since every aspect of his vision was better than a humans. Or that of a fairy.

The doors opened and Sean looked out before he let Colleen leave the car. He kept her behind him as they traipsed to the back part of the lobby. There sat a large black vehicle. The window rolled down and his brother, Donal, sat behind the wheel. He was glad to see a friendly face.

Sean opened the door for Colleen. She hopped in and he climbed in after her.
