Can You Take It? (Infatuated Fae, #4)

by Jeneane O'Riley

Alcoholism, drug use, violence, bones, death, gore, and sex should about sum up the warnings for this book I believe, but like I said, might not be wise to trust my judgment, so please be sure to use your own.

She deserved a happily ever after, and as wild as it was, that was with Mendax, the Prince of the Unseelie realm.

Thinking about my and Cal’s promise of eternal love and friendship made my body feel a little warmer in this cold and gritty, death-filled space. As stupid as it was, I knew she was still with me, and I was with her. Even if I was dead.

I hoped more than anything that she lived. Not just stayed alive. I hoped with every drop of hope that I’d ever been lucky enough to have, she got to live a life filled with happiness and love—like she hadn’t gotten up until now.

But now she’s going to be thinking about me for the rest of her life as her knight in shining armor—ha! It was going to drive him wild, and I loved little more than saving damsels in distress and making Mendax mad.

She and Mendax were a perfect storm of thunder and lightning, and though you could have one without the other, when they were together, the whole atmosphere changed, each exposing a beauty and strength they couldn’t have had without the other.

“Because I was the stupid fae Eletha ran off to marry. Mendax told Kaohs, and Eletha was hauled back here and never allowed to leave again. Kaohs despises me.”

“Time up there is vastly different than time down here. It could have been a year in Unseelie while you are feeling that it’s only been an hour. Also, you should know my deal to allow Calypso in Tartarus wasn’t done for Mendax. Someone much more important to me showed concern for your friend.

I like a good chase and I fucking love a woman that makes me work to earn it. The meal tastes better when you’ve hunted it.”

“That pendant belongs to me,” Anna declared sternly. “I’m Adrianna, Calypso’s sister.”
