"Princess, we're here." Nyx gently went to let me go but when my legs wobbled he picked me up again. His cottage home was in the middle of a forest, surrounded by trees and the sounds of animals and other critters that come alive at night. It wasn't what I had expected, but I also hadn't really thought about where Nyx lived. I had assumed he lived in the castle like some of the other upper level staff. It had a thatched roof and was made of wood that was painted white. His door and window treatments were black.

Griffin answering questions a three week old cannot ask yet. Marcus and Sebastian on Fridays. Margaret with her window boxes and Archie and the twenty year game that landed exactly where she intended. All of it. Every piece of it. Exactly right. As it had always been going to be. From the moment a woman raised a paddle at a charity auction for a Maine vacation rental with a kitchen facing the ocean and looked across the room and found someone looking back.

This continued until we graduated. Old Mrs. Langham found out about me and called me uncouth, which led to Ian refusing to return to the Langhams. He insisted on working part-time with me while we lived together in a rented basement, and we fell in love. Ian's migraine started when we were living together in that basement. I learned the art of massaging to help him soothe his migraine, and it worked miraculously on him.

For the rest of the ride Richard is on his phone, Mariam is as well, Emma is reading another book, and I'm staring out the window at the scenery. The cityscape had left pretty early into our trip and was replaced with a few barren lands and then a quieter, more peaceful woody area. After all of the nature civilization eventually came back but this time it wasnt a well used, slightly dirty city. The streets were cleaner and the houses much larger and spaced apart.

He was trying to hawk my new ride at a steal, thinking he could line his pockets and play me for a fool. I seethed inwardly. I bit back my fury, gave my workers the nod, and we started to head out. However, Harold clamped onto me, oozing arrogance. "Jim, you really want to cross me? One word from me, and my sister will dump you. You'll be left a lonely old man no one wants."
