I couldn’t shake the feeling that leaving Liam and Marcos alone with Sera right now was the exact wrong move. There was something in the dynamic between them that had me on edge. I couldn’t blame the others for finding Sera attractive, but hell, I was the one who brought her into these shenanigans. Didn’t that give me dibs to pursue her?

Not that anyone could tell Sera what to do. Headstrong, sassy, and a born leader. Just like I remembered her from the academy. Those same qualities had memories of Sera sneaking into my thoughts and fantasies regularly.

Remembering our moments together earlier, alone in the back room at her work, my shaft went hard. If I’d had time, I would have made my move. Sera had been receptive, that much I was sure of. She’d have opened to me like a flower.

Damn Tink and damn her ridiculous puzzles.

Wandering back through the supe area of the exhibits, I pulled out my phone and called Franc.

“‘Sup?” he answered.

“Enjoying your preferred vintage?”

“I’m not always that predictable,” Franc replied, his voice a slow drawl. “They had an amazing small batch whiskey I couldn’t pass up.”

“Meaning they’re all out of wine?”

Franc scoffed. “I have a policy against house jug wine. But tell me, what trouble are you all up to? Has the fae been showing up to heckle you too?”

I laughed. “Nope, just you. Have you learned anything new from Tink?”

“I can report that her laugh-cackle is no less irritating. Otherwise, no. It’s been unusually quiet here, for the town bar.”

“Good. We need your help down at a nature reserve to gather pixie poop.”

There was a pause on the line, and I thought I heard ice clinking. “I’m not sure psychedelics are the best choice right now, brother.”

“I’m not high. It’s just…” I groaned. “Complicated. We’ve arranged a series of trades, and the last item we have to tromp through a swamp, at night, raiding pixie toilets.”

“You always did know how to party,” Franc replied. “Aren’t pixies dangerous?”

“Only if you’re not into electroshock treatments.” I sighed. Even Franc recognized the difficulty ahead of us. “I’m really not sure this task is even possible. But get down here and bring Caden with you. He’s there, right?”

“He is, although he just got here. Thus why I was surprised to get your call.”

“Huh. Caden must have gotten waylaid? We sent him over a while back.”

I could almost hear Franc smile. “Demons will be demons. Send me your location and we’ll head over.”

“See you soon.” I hung up, hoping Caden wasn’t causing too much trouble.

“Hey there, you’re still here?” Greyson said from behind me. “We’re a couple minutes to closing.”

I spun around and flashed the habitat tech what I hoped was a nonchalant smile. “I had a call I was finishing up. Are you heading out?”

“Yes, it’s been a long day. I could walk out with you?”

“Yeah, sure.” All the better for him to think we’d all left. Mostly, I just needed to make sure he didn’t go out on the viewing deck in case the others weren’t hidden yet.
