Curse of Magic (The Fairy Tale Enchantress, #2)

Angelique pointed to the sky. “I was checking on my mount. I rode him longer than usual, and I wasn’t sure what condition he would be in.” Elise squinted a little. “Oh?”

“Very well, keep in touch. Let me know if you find anything—or plan to break more magical laws,” he said. Angelique’s smile lessened to a frown. “I don’t mean to break them out of a desire to make havoc.”

Felicienne shook with anger. “We will send mages after you!” Angelique smiled—not her polite one, but the amused smirk she usually hid. “Of course. When you can find Evariste so you can formally charge me, I will happily return. But until then, you’ll have to forcibly remove me from whatever palace and royal family I am working with at the moment. I’m sure they won’t mind you ripping away the only mage who is actively addressing their concerns and trials.” Tristisim slammed his fist on his desk again. “This is an outrage!” “I don’t care,” Angelique said. “Angelique, I understand your frustration, but you cannot ignore laws and rules,” Primrose said. “Can’t I? You six seem to enjoy doing so,” Angelique blandly said. Clovicus whistled and then lowly chuckled. Felicienne sent him a poisonous look, but he only smiled benignly at her.
