At some point, she must have noticed, because her assaults were now less ambitious, and she finally tossed him in the sand."It's that damned succubus," she told him. "I was aware she was training you, but no mortal should have a grasp on this place like you do.""Mmph," he replied. It wasn't a very kind thing to say to a queen, but he figured it was lost in translation anyway. He stood on wobbling legs and yanked at the metal on his face. It didn't come off, so he held up his right hand as if he was wearing a sock puppet and mimed talking with it."You fucked up bringing me here," he told her, his voice coming from his hand. "If I give up, I die. You can slow time, trap me here, but I'm aware that this isn't my body. My real body is with Cecilia, and even if you trap me here forever, you'll be trapped, too. So you can slap me around, set me on fire, whatever, but it's far better than the alternative. Your show of power is meaningless, Your Highness, because this isn't air we're breat

"Enough!" The queen picked him up and slammed him against the nearest wall, choking him with two hands while pinning his arms with the other two. Her body was dripping with sewage, and the curls of her hair had come undone, making her look like a drowned rat. "If I have to spend the next hundred years in here ripping you to pieces, I will!""Mmph!" he called out to the house, hoping that Naia would hear. Already, the memories of his mother were beginning to circle the yard, their words reaching out to him like clawed hands. He had no offensive plan, and his defenses wouldn't hold up against the emotional assault of his mother for much longer.The queen leaned in close, revealing that her teeth had become fangs."I will chew your goddamn face off," she whispered in rage. "I will run my fingers beneath your skin, I will—"Her eyes went wide and she leaned back to reveal that a thick, black tail had wrapped around her throat, choking her off. When she shifted to see her attacker, Mike wa

She looked at Marco's corpse, and a sick feeling filled the pit of her stomach. This was somebody she had known, someone that had sat across from her for years, and he had just been snuffed out in front of her.A drop of rain hit her on the nose, disrupting her musings, and she looked up to see that ominous clouds had formed overhead. Puzzled by the sudden shift in weather, she was further surprised by the large creature that landed on what remained of the roof with a heavy thud.The ball of energy buzzed excitedly, and then a beam of light arced out across the lawn, incinerating the yard and spirits alike. Beth ran from the beam as it chased her, and then collided with Kisa, who was also trying to flee.The beam stopped just short of incinerating the both of them, and Beth looked up in time to see Kisa staring back, her eyes wild."Get out of my way," she shrieked, then jumped to her feet. She didn't make it far, because Tink launched herself at Kisa, and both of them became a tumbli

"C'mon, let's go inside," she said. "We can check on Abella, and I want to make sure Jenny is okay. Once we get Abella outside, she can help us find Kisa and Tink, figure out where they went." She knelt down and picked up Cerulea, who was covered in dirt but unharmed."The wee ghost should be fine, if not a bit startled," Sulyvahn added. "That one can take more than a lash, I promise ye."She nodded, then turned to Death, who was now wandering the front yard rubbing his skull anxiously. His scythe had disappeared, and he crouched down to pick something up."Everything okay?" she asked, still amazed that she could see him."It is now," Death replied, then turned to face her while slipping something into his robes. "I thought I had lost my spider and would be forced to give Mike Radley a treat instead of a trick."She laughed, the trauma of the night suddenly overwhelming her. Hugging the Grimoire to her chest, she stepped away from the house so that she could look up at Quetzalli. "Tha

"Please. I've seen the humans and how they fawn over Oberon and his host. The king has fallen in love with the human world at the detriment of our own." She smacked her hand on the armrest of her throne and rose. "What is it about the human world that seduces our kind, even our very own king? What can be so wonderful about them that he would willingly stay away?""He says the people love him." The messenger ducked his head in fear as the queen's fist lit up with emerald light. She spun out of her throne and slammed her fist into the empty throne next to hers, causing it to explode."But I love him," she cried. "Is my love not good enough? What of the love of our people, our children?"On the ground, the real queen was shrieking in agony as she was forced to relive her worst days. More images flitted by of another king of music, one who would drive people to scream in his very presence. Mike recognized the singer immediately, but also recognized the silhouette of Oberon superimposed on
