When Gargoyles Love Chapter 17: Uh Oh
A gasp escaped Meg's lips. She put a hand to her mouth. What had brought her back here? She'd never know, but now she was glad she had. Why would Donal be talking to Harriet? "Oh?"Harriet laughed, drawing Meg's attention to her. She couldn't figure out why Donal would be here. Because of her past experiences with men, she was sure it wasn't good. She stepped into the office. "What's going on?"Donal's mouth moved, but no sound came out. Harriet cackled again. This could not be good."You going to tell her?" Harriet said.She hadn't stopped laughing. Donal fidgeted in his seat. Guess he hadn't been expecting her. "Meg.""Save it.""Why are you so sure this is a bad thing?" he said.He stood and took a step towards her, but he was catapulted back into the chair. It looked as if he'd been yanked into it. His mouth gaped open and his arms flailed. Something was terribly wrong with this situationShe blinked as Donal struggled to get out of the chair. She shook her head, before turning to
When Gargoyles Love Chapter 18: Wrong Choice
"Are you sure?" "Yes, I'm sure."Meg recalled the scene. Harriet was laughing. She demanded that Donal show Meg who he really was. He'd been reluctant, but he did it and what did she do? She'd run away. Oh. God. She'd run away. "What did you think was going on?" Fiona asked. What had she thought was going on? She replied slowly, gathering her thoughts on this impossible situation. "I don't know. I just assumed it wasn't good. The guy I like and the boss I hate were together in a room.""You assumed that he was doing something wrong?" Colleen asked. Meg put a hand over her mouth. "I did. He was stuck there. Helpless. The same way I had been only moments before. He couldn't move even after I could. Harriet must have done that."She couldn't get the vision out of her head. He'd looked at her helplessly. His eyes pleaded with her, but she'd walked away."Didn't you mention that you thought Harriet was odd? Something was wrong with her?" Fiona asked. "Yes. And I left him there. Alone
When Gargoyles Love Chapter 19: To the Death
No." Donal held Meg back with his outspread wings. "She isn't dead yet. I can still hear her heart beat," he said. Meg nodded, wondering where her friends had gotten to. When the creature finally let out what could only be a death gasp, Donal let go of it. His gaze went to Meg. "You're safe."Somehow she knew that. She ran to Donal, who stepped away. "I'm a mess, Meg."He transformed before her eyes. The fangs receded. The wings tucked themselves back into him and his legs were once again as a man. Somehow his clothes had appeared though they were tainted with a black substance.Colleen and Fiona burst into the room. They looked at everything. "What the Hell happened here?"Donal swung around to face them and began barking orders. "Get Meg home and cleaned up." He lowered his gaze. "You ladies weren't here.""But the cameras," Meg spoke quickly.The gargoyle shook his head. "I can take care of those recordings. Go, Meg. I have to take care of this body."Her friends yanked her out of
When Gargoyles Love Chapter 20: Fate of Gargoyle
In a time when fairies ruled the Earth. And humans were an afterthought.The waves of the ocean beat against the shore. The blue sky met the gray water in the land of Connaught in what is now County Galway, Ireland. The Fairy Queen held her wand aloft as she told the three gargoyles their fate.Sean Foley heard the Fairy Queen's verdict and he swore to himself. He glanced at his two brothers, Donal and Declan. Their faces reflected his reaction to the fact that the Fairy Queen had cursed them to be turned to stone until the fairy that they were destined to protect came along. If that fairy stayed with them for at least a day, they would take human form again."Feck," he said. As gargoyles, they'd sworn to protect the fae as a whole and some were called to protect a special fairy. Their father had been one of those rare gargoyles, but he'd lain with the fairy and she was now with child. His child. His father was nowhere to be found so the Fairy Queen had passed judgment on his sons.
When Gargoyles Love Chapter 21: This Client
The last place Colleen wanted to be was back in her office. She was pretty sure everyone had heard the verdict and social media had probably made the kiss picture go viral. Right now she wanted to go home and forget she was a lawyer. A glass of wine and Netflix would be on her agenda. Unless Fi and Meg were available. She steeled herself before she walked in the front door. If her firm had made her the sacrificial lamb, would they admit it? She doubted it. There must have been a plan in place or had Tony Tocci acted on his own? Ledger, Chart, and Hier occupied three floors in a building on Chestnut Street, not far from all of the courthouses that they might have trials taking place. The warmth of the day didn't reach Colleen's soul as she stood outside the building. She might as well get this over with. She yanked open the door, waved at the security guard, then punched the elevator button for the fifth floor. When the doors opened on her firm's office, she strode out as if she own
When Gargoyles Love Chapter 22: Girls' Night
Fiona arrived at Colleen's apartment with ice cream and wine. Colleen hugged her friend tightly. Having no family, friends were important to her. Fiona returned the hug. "Since Meg is still on her honeymoon, I'll try to be twice as good a best friend." Colleen laughed as she closed the door behind her. She followed Fiona out to the balcony of her penthouse. Fiona took in a breath. "You have the best view of all of us."Colleen's apartment overlooked the Delaware River. She faced New Jersey, but she could live with that. The sight of sailboats and duck boats going by in the summer made it all worthwhile. Fiona flopped into a lounge chair."I'll get some spoons," Colleen said. She retrieved two spoons and two wine glasses from her state of the art kitchen. Her bare feet padded across the bamboo floor and back out onto the expansive balcony.She handed Colleen a pint of rocky road ice cream. "Thanks, Colleen," Fiona said."I forgot the corkscrew," Colleen said. "Screw top."Colleen
When Gargoyles Love Chapter 23: Back at the Church
Donal's still-cursed brothers continued to perch on a shelf above a church outside of Leenane, County Galway. Meg and Donal had been by to see them days before and they couldn't be happier for their brother.But. They were still made of stone. Sean lamented it every day. Seeing Donal in human form had just reminded him of their fates. It hurt a little, but he recognized that his brother was in love and nothing bad was going to happen to him. That didn't mean the two remaining brothers would have such luck. At least they'd been granted the gift of being able to talk to each other telepathically."I can feel your thoughts over here," Declan said. They looked out onto the Atlantic Ocean and the Wild Atlantic Way. Buses and cars passed, but no one stopped. Sheep ate the grass that grew around the crumbling walls of the stone church. The landscape had shifted with the times, but it was still green on their side of the road and sandy near the shore. Sean had lost count of how many years
When Gargoyles Love Chapter 24: Maybe
Sean could see the car that parked on the side of the road. He wasn't optimistic, because a lot of people stopped to take a picture of the ocean here. Only Meg, his brother's new American wife, had ever walked across the road to see them. The day wasn't sunny, but that wasn't surprising. There were always clouds in the sky on the west coast of Ireland. County Galway from what Sean had gathered from hearing people talk on the beach. The world had moved on since they'd been sitting here in stone. He'd seen humans populate where fairies had once lived. He'd seen the sky rain for days on end than when it stopped a rainbow appeared on the horizon. The sea had stayed the same gray. Ships had once traveled these seas. Now it wasn't common to see one, but airplanes now dotted the skies going to who knew where. Sean had spent the time staring out into a view that was once beautiful, but now mundane. Where gargoyles had learned their fighting skills, sheep now chewed on the grass. Did anyone s
