OBERON

After a crazy couple of days, including an emergency plumbing job—the Joseph’s little boy Nicholas thought it’d be fun to flush all of his toy cars down the toilet—Oberon finally managed to catch up with his cousins and find out how Nyall’s big date with Aaron went.

To say he was stunned by what Nyall’s magic had done would be the understatement of the century. Oberon’s magical repairs to Holly’s desk might as well be a lump of coal in comparison.

No one was surprised when Linus got both jealous and excited about the development. Of all the cousins, Linus struggled most with their magic decreasing, and he longed for love.

“Oh, poor Nyall. Meeting a gorgeous man who is so into you it’s literally making your holiday magic blossom. Sorry if I don’t feel one bit sorry for you.” Linus scowled and leaned back against the couch. He pulled a bag of red hots from his pocket and began tossing them into his mouth.

Before Oberon could warn him against the idea, Linus gasped and reached for one of the glasses of water he’d put on the table for each of them. “Hot hot hot!”

He slurped water and waved his hand in front of his mouth while Oberon wondered if Miles might actually be the cause of his sudden burst of magic.

“Hot.” Linus repeated the word as if it meant something else. “Oh…Oh…Ohhhhhhhh.”

Oberon scowled at his cousin, pulled out of his own thoughts by Linus’s dramatics.

“What, Linus?” Eldon snapped.

Linus spit out the candies into his water glass. “Aaron and Nyall. Hot.”

Nyall groaned. “Linus, yes, Aaron’s hot. And yes, what we did was super-hot. But that doesn’t explain—”

“Oh, but it does. Aaron is your mate. As in fated. As in sent by the Goddess to give you eternal, magical bliss.” Linus jumped up and did a karate kick but ended up toppling over the back of the couch and landing on the floor with a thud. “I’m okay. I’m okay.”

Oberon almost swallowed his tongue. That wasn’t possible.

Nyall seemed to agree with him. “Fated mates aren’t…real?”

“Aren’t they?” Linus asked. “I mean, we’ve all heard the stories. And we all know magic has been wonky lately. I so called it. Sleigh my name. Sleigh my name.”

Oberon had to laugh at the dance Linus attempted as he sang. Before he could issue a warning to be careful, Linus spun and flew off the rug onto the hardwood floors. He slid several feet and ended up under their tree. “How has he survived so long?”

The cousins continued the discussion. Nyall was particularly worried about Aaron learning their secret. There were very strict rules in place about revealing the magical world to humans. The fact that Aaron was also a reporter added a level of complication that none of them needed.

“What do I do?” Nyall asked.

Oberon straightened his back, determined not to let this change in their magic freak any of them out.

“Nothing,” Oberon said firmly. “You do what you’re doing now. If Aaron is your mate, then we’ll celebrate it.
