“First rule of Cardinal Magic,” I murmured. “Do not be a fucking idiot.”
Professor MF Orion baby
“What the fuck?” Seth breathed, but his words were drowned out by Darius’s deep growl. “That’s not my fucking wife.”
Yessssss darius
Lance, Darius, Geraldine, Seth, Max, Caleb, Sofia, Xavier, and Tyler, they had become family to me as deeply as Tory and Gabriel were. Each of them had become a part of me that I was so damn grateful for. And I couldn’t let them down, rotting here in some dusty cave to become a pile of useless bones.
“How about you, Cal?” Darius asked. “Have any of the rebel girls caught your attention?” “Nah,” Caleb said vaguely, rubbing his hand down the back of his neck. “Come on. I know you,” Darius pushed. “You’ve had at least one long haired brunette pinned beneath you moaning your name recently.” Seth dropped a mug in the kitchenette and it smashed at his feet, making him curse.
Hahhahahah
“Even the moon has turned to look at the two of you,” she said. “The twins who defy fate itself. And I get the feeling the carnage that trails in your wake is only the beginning of your tale. The world itself will shake when it hears you roar as one.”
Darius looked between them in anger like he was trying to find a way to refute their logic. “But it’s mine.” “It can be yours. But it has to stay here.”
never gets old
“Get off those,” Darius barked. “I’ll do it. You wouldn’t know a gemstone from a grape, little shrew.”
“The moon is shouting.” Tory looked over at me then gasped. “Hey – it’s me! Hi, me!” She waved and I waved back with a snort of laughter.
“That’s a whole lot of cows,” Orion murmured as he took in the rows of agents, stumbling into me and I caught his arm. “I’ve got a lot of milking to do. It’s gonna take me all night.”
If this city wanted a fight, it was about to get one. No one tried to make me kiss my brother-in-law and got away with it.
“I was among the Vetus faction. We honoured the laws of old, never disrupting the balance of fate. For Fae and all living things possess the gift of change. Free will is their right. It is written into the texts that make up the nature of the universe. It is not a right that should ever be taken from them. We, as their observers, are meant to protect it, to remain unbiased in our watchful state. But the Novus stars disregarded what was written and used their power to make puppets of the Fae.”
“You will gift each stone to the twelve Fae we have shown you. They are the peacemakers. The rising twelve. Seek them and balance shall be found. Seek them and your fates will be reclaimed.”
“Hello, brother,” he purred as he began to heave me back up onto the ledge. “I was told that you were dead.”
“Fuck,” I breathed. “Fuck,” Luca echoed. “Exactly,” I said to him. “Okay, little dude. We’re gonna go on an adventure.” “Venture!” he said excitedly.
Although the emotions were potent, they were unreal too, beyond comprehension, without any true sense of a person behind them. Whatever we were striding towards, it wasn’t Fae.

A morte e ritorno. To death and back.
“Awoo.” Luca prodded me. “Do awoo. Do awoo.” “Not right now, buddy,” I breathed. “Awoo later.” “Awoo now.” “Awoo,” I whisper-howled. Luca’s little face screwed up, his mouth opening in a silent, devastated cry but the noise soon came pouring out, echoing around my bubble. “Shh, shh,” I urged, patting his back. “A-woo,” he pleaded through a sob.
so cute ugh
“Well if it isn’t my dear, traitorous, murdering father,” he purred, his words a promise of my bloodshed, and my hands trembled as I took him in, my eyes refusing to accept the truth of what I saw, my rage slow in the face of this fear. “Did you miss me?”
“Is he still watching us?” Tory whispered after a minute. I glanced back, finding Igrit there on the path right behind us. “Ah!” I gasped. “I move quietly, don’t I?” he said excitedly. “Like a Nymph ninja – a Nymja I like to call it.
HAHAHA
They glanced up as if feeling my eyes on them, and I offered them a grin before flashing a peace sign at Seth and winking.
hahaha
His expression skewed a little. “Is it those gemstones on your dick? Are they chafing?”
HAH
“I will fight this war in the name of the Vegas. All hail the True Queens!” “Damn straight,” Max said. “All hail those fiery fucking hellions.”
Goosebumps
“Roxy, if you try to go down there alone, I’ll throw you over my shoulder and tie your ass up to stop you. That’s not just dangerous; it’s fucking suicide and none of us can follow you into that crack of hell.” “Oh baby,” I purred, spreading my arms out wide either side of me as I gave him a sweet as pie smile and he broke into a run in a pointless attempt to stop me. “Don’t threaten me with a good time.”
Iconic
I leaned down to help her out of the river but she ignored me, rising up on a pillar of swamp water then dousing herself in fresh water made by magic and stepping onto the boat in her tight-fitting swimming costume that had A.S.S. stitched over her tits. I wasn’t certain if she had it on backwards or if it was some kind of cunning plan to confuse her enemies so they didn’t know whether she was facing them or not.
Oh Leon hahaha
I felt judged. By him. By the stars. By Riblet. Fuck Riblet. That skeevy little turncoat.
“No, Leon. If I had, I would have stopped it. You are so very fucking hard to predict,” he sighed.
