Chapter 16

Prim came through the door back at their place. They still kept their spot away from the club, even though the streets had grown more dangerous. Aeulin had assured her continually that the two of them were alright, but he still never let her walk the streets alone. This time, however, she was worried, what with him not being there at the bar like he was every night.

When she shuffled in, she saw him, waiting at the balcony with his bird. Turning about, he peered at her with a furrowed brow.

“What are you doing here?” he asked, sounding upset. “You know you aren’t supposed to walk the streets alone!”

“I couldn’t find you!” Prim protested, her eyes wide with surprise that he was simply at home. Relief flooded her, but annoyance, too. He’d made her worry that he was... hurt somewhere. “You were supposed to be at the bar, and when you weren’t... How was I to know you weren’t caught up in this madness?”

Already her eyes were sparkling with tears, the young human so delicate and vulnerable in her advanced pregnancy.

It wasn’t like her to be upset with him, ever, and it took him by surprise. That might have delayed his own irritation. He sent his elven bird off with a flutter and strode over to her, locking the door before grasping hold of her arm and hip. “You should stay put until I tell you otherwise,” he told her, trying to sound assertive, fatherly. The elf's dashing, youthful looks killed the effect.

Her lower lip trembled, and she looked up at him with such pure affection. “I felt so worried, though! I had to see if you were home, if you were safe. Please don’t be mad at me,” she pleaded.

He looked upset, angry even, a rare state for him. Aeulin had been the man of her dreams. Not even a man, but a fae being from an immortal land of magic and…

It didn’t seem so much like that when he stood there, brow furrowed, irritation and anger simmering in his eyes as much as any human as he looked at her. Through her.

“I just… it was a hard night, okay?” he said to her, his hands grasping her firm. “Fuck,” he cursed, guiding her over towards the bed carefully to help her sit down, and relieve the pressure of carting around such a swollen belly. “I wouldn’t leave you. Not for good,” he explained. “I just had to get away for a bit,” he explained as patiently as he could muster, but his tone wasn’t up to its usual standards.

A whore shouldn’t be so sensitive, she thought, but she was. Tender-hearted as they came, and the thought of disappointing or upsetting Aeulin crushed her. Her shoulders fell in and her breath was short and only at the top of her lungs. “I’m sorry,” she begged, so filled with regret that she’d done something to cause him to be angry with her. “I was just so, so worried. And no one knew where you were.
