TWELVE

JUST AS ALBIGARD’S features had done upon our arrival in Dhuinne, Caspian’s features had reverted to their natural elfin appearance. His dark blond brows drew together as he scowled down at me from his towering advantage of height. Their shape might have been different than in his human guise, but the disdain they conveyed was unmistakable.

I scrambled to my feet, my cold, stiff muscles nearly sending me right back to the ground as they cramped. A grimace of pain pulled at my lips as I limped backward, putting as much space as possible between us. It wasn’t much.

This is it, I thought as a second Fae stepped out of the portal and closed it behind him. My worst nightmare had come to fruition. I was trapped with my nemesis, completely under his control.

The second Fae looked me over coldly. “It is rather a pitiful creature, is it not?” he asked casually. “I’d honestly expected something a little more impressive.”

“Bind it,” Caspian ordered, with a dismissive wave in my direction.

“She,” I hissed. “Not ‘it.’ I’m a person, just like the two of you.” I let some of my disgust at their nearness creep into my words. “Well… maybe not just like you.”

The second Fae raised a hand, and an invisible force flung me backward. I hit the damp wood of the wall, my body spread-eagled and the breath knocked out of me.

And I stuck there.

I was pinned to the tree as though someone had coated it with superglue, wheezing as I tried to get my lungs to work. Panic rose, overcoming my bravado in the space of an instant. I couldn’t move, I couldn’t seem to get a full breath, and I couldn’t get away from them.

“We will start with a physical examination,” Caspian said in a conversational tone, and my mind fled as it had done once before in Albigard’s basement.

“Stay away from me,” I grated roughly, as power exploded from my center, blasting outward in an invisible wave.

Caspian stumbled back a step, a violent mix of lust and rage sliding across his expression. The wave slid around the second Fae without touching him, though he murmured a startled, “What in Mab’s name?”

I couldn’t pay attention, though—I was instantly locked in a battle of powers with Caspian, who stepped forward like he intended to tear me apart to get at the juicy bits inside. I could feel my succubus nature trying to get its claws into his animus, even though some distant, human part of me was screaming that no, no—I didn’t want that foul and slimy filth inside me.

Before the outcome of the battle could fall in either direction, the other Fae muttered something low and fast, and the same burst of agony I’d felt when Albigard broke my connection with him sliced through me. My muscles jerked against the invisible bonds holding me in place, even as Caspian staggered and caught himself with a hand against the wall next to my head.

He pulled away quickly, as though he’d been burned, and retreated a step.
