“Umm… hey,” I smiled shyly and then shook my head, “Wow, that wasn’t regal at all. I mean Hi.”

Polaris straightened up delicately laughing into her fingertips, “Hello your nighness.”

“Ashai,” Hectyr rolled his eyes again, “Margery and Jacques are the heads of the house.” He leaned back gesturing to them. "Care to explain why you were rudely listening to our conversation far longer than I should have allowed?”

“What me listening?” My face went bright red.

“I did warn you, if you do it wrong, it throws your scent. You were hardly subtle.”

“I am so sorry about that!” I bowed back hoping I was about to show enough humility that I wasn’t some how challenged tonight. “I really didn’t mean anything by it and it is so good to meet you all. Polaris you must be quite the lady of the court to convince Hectyr to attend tonight.”

“You weren’t going to attend?” She turned back to Hectyr placing her hands on her hips.

“I couldn’t convince him, none of his brothers to my knowledge.” I

    “You will listen to me.” I growled, lowering my gaze as I struggled to look intimidating. “Dimitris.” My voice was still low as I positioned myself between him and Polaris. With my patience wearing thin, he continued to have his back to me. The guards were closing in. Nok had taken a step forward too, his stance was low, arms outstretched as I saw his dagger-like nails ready to try to see how far he could get. “LOOK AT ME!” I snapped, my voice demanded something from him and he was going to deny me. That’s when my last effort was placed. I flooded him with as much emotion as I could. If he was going to ignore me here so I was going to make sure he was a wreck internally. Everything about my hatred for what he allowed to happen to innocent people was his now. It caused him to stumble backward slightly. I knew the way to bring Dimitris Attaason to his knees but when it finally came to it I couldn't hurt him. I couldn’t be that final nail in his coffin. I pulled it all back as quickly a

    Looking down over the throne room I thought back to the first time I entered this room. It seemed like a lifetime ago where the prospect of hating Dimitris was still at the forefront of my mind. He was so ready to destroy Nok that day. Today his focus was going to be on Hectyr. My focus was on Hectyr. “Maybe I should go back to my room.” I sighed. The hall below was packed tightly with courtiers, their various colorful outfits and hairstyles made it look like a terribly mixed rainbow. Most of them seemed to be hiding their fae natures, but every so often there would be that one younger courtier standing out. Today I couldn’t help but look at the white blotch near the front, a fine ring around them. Up here it was apparently what was happening, down there though I’d have never been able to see it. I also wouldn’t have been able to see a few rows behind them, young girls pointing and leaning toward each other, no doubt spawning more false rumors about the family and Polaris. She was

    Why was I so powerless against these men? Why do I never fight back? WHY! I clenched my eyes shut and felt a draw of power as I pushed back causing Hectyr to crash hard against the wall with me between his legs. I hated every part of me that enjoyed this. There was nothing that surrendered to him, for once I was going to fight. My hands clutched his tunic digging into the fabric as I held him firmly. He was going to know my strength. He surrendered and I felt a moan ease up from my core and finally vibrated against his lips. It was like encouragement for him. His fingers were playing with the fabric near my collar. I knew what he was looking for and once he moved my dress off my shoulder he pushed back causing us to finally part. Struggling to catch my breath I used as much strength left in me to close the bond between Dimitris and myself. If he knew- no. I shook the thought from my mind. He wasn't going to be here right now. Hectyr was what was flooding me, he was all that my feel

    Hectyr sneered before turning back around, leaning forward over a balcony, the white glass ceiling behind him allowed every bit of near noon sunshine to come through. “What are you doing up here?” I looked around hoping someone else was up here at least. He shrugged and answered dismissively, “Waiting for court to start.” That’s when he turned and looked between me and Sage, “Why are you two here? You’re more than welcome to attend down there.” My thumb pointed to Sage, and she replied, “She needs to be here.” “Do I?” He grumbled back. “No,” she paused and looked around quickly, “but Odda would encourage you to.” “Do you make a habit of watching court from up here?” I laughed and looked out over the nearly empty hall below. Court was still a little bit away so only a few courtiers were inside at the moment. “Only when I know I’m not wanted.” He huffed and then turned back to Sage, “Am I going to regret my life after this?” She shrugged back playfully, “I think you’ll find

    Hectyr left quickly after that and I made my way back to Dimitris’s side. The entire festival was going by so quickly I hardly had time to process. I think at one point Nok came over with a few pints of beer. I refused but he and the rest of his brothers all decided to get into a drinking competition that left Nok the disputed winner while Mani collapsed back in his chair causing an uproar. We honestly had the best time. I found myself gripping my stomach multiple times from laughter. I managed to see everyone else in the family too. Emnore was dressed in a frilly gown with a very tastefully plain lace mask, while Alfred wore an outfit that looked far too much like Hectyr’s which it was more of an afterthought. Meanwhile Anju and Conrad dressed as golden statues full masks that made me do a double taken as they sat down, only realizing who they were once Conrad lifted his golden plate of a mask to get a drink. Nok was more plan than anyone not even bothering to wear a mask. For a g
