[Reggie]
--Three days later --
It was finally time! I was excited. I woke up feeling my full strength for the first time in weeks! Anders told me to wait until training to bring out my demon form. He wanted to have all of the demons there to help, in case it was actually too early.
I practically floated through breakfast and assertively pulled Ford into his apartment to feed me. He commented that he’d never seen me as aggressive as I was that morning. It led to a vigorous and potent feeding.

In the barn for training, Anders reiterated what would need to be done if I felt the bloodlus
[3rd person]Ford was thinking about Reggie being a Vasilia. She had to be on their side, or he would have felt the killing urge. The other rulers agreed.The fact that she was definitely on their side, was great news. Even though she’d assured them she wasn’t being used, they knew the gods and goddesses that watched over them wouldn’t allow someone being used by an enemy to live long.It occurred to Ford that, maybe her being a Vasilia was why she felt like Madison. Why it was so easy to imagine Madison when he was with her. Then, he remembered. He’d been holding back, thinking she was a normal concubus. He could use his full strength.
[3rd person]It was an hour before dusk when they met in Madison’s field. Gavin had a large backpack with him and Reggie carried a tent and a bag of her own things. She needed to be prepared.If the fae king became fertile while she was out, she would have to take a break and go deal with him. Gavin told her he’d keep working while she was gone. Reggie appreciated it.They entered the woods. Gavin followed as Reggie led the way to the clearing they’d set up camp in. The area she led him to was perfect.It was a large enough space for the tent to be erected. A stone circle outlined an area for a fire and wood was stacked near
[Reggie]I walked out of the in-between and into a forested park. I was wearing my traditional demon outfit with the sarong and sandals. My wings stretched out behind me.Even though I’d had my demon form back for a couple weeks, I still hadn’t flown. I sniffed the air. This wasn’t close enough.After walking for a while, I found a minor drop off I could use to take flight. It just made it easier than trying to take off from the ground. I ran and jumped off, gliding for a while before I started working my wings into flight.The cool wind off the ocean gave me a little chill. I enjoyed the briskness. I couldn’t remember if I&rsquo
“Let me make this call, Reggie. Then, I’ll gladly take you up on your offer.” Rhys smiled, indicating his cellphone.I nodded and he called his secretary. I wandered away while he took care of his business. I looked at the art decorating the walls, moving silently sideways and examining everything closely.There was a painting of a woman in a green tunic standing in a battle field. The fight raged around her, but she was calmly standing with a raven perched on her hand. Her hair was blood red and flowing behind her, her skin pale as sun bleached bone.“The triple goddess. Morrigan. Goddess of war, fate, and kings.” Rhys murmured behind me, his arms snaking around my waist.“One o
[Ford]As the sun rose, I was sitting by Madison’s tree. I picked a few cherries and was telling her about everything that happened the day before. Without Reggie there to distract me, I was able to spend a lot more time tending the field and tree.I started having trouble sleeping three days after she left. I made the effort to eat, but meal times weren’t as much fun without Reggie there to make me laugh or challenge me to eating competitions. I was fairly certain Madison sent Reggie to help me get my strength back. Part of me knew I had to be stronger than I was.Conric missed Reggie, too. He said no one could scratch like she could. Aria tried, but she scratched too fast and unevenly. We knew there wouldn’t be much time left with Reggie when she ret
[Reggie]I opened my eyes and smiled. I’d gotten a lot of my memories back. I remembered friends from childhood, my parents, my sisters, my first boyfriend, and the first time I met my mates.It wasn’t completely clear. I couldn’t remember names, and faces escaped me, but the facts and feelings were all there. It was more than I had before and I was going to cherish every bit of it. I was so close.“Good morning, pheata. Are you hungry?” Rhys asked.“I could eat, but my mother always told me you shouldn’t do heavy physical activities after a meal. So… I think we should definitely have sex again before we go.” I purred.
[Reggie]I looked at the number. I didn’t want to call the royals. Mostly, I wanted to take a nap. I had no idea why I was so tired, but it was like something in me was changing. Probably the spell working, or my body preparing for impregnating Rhys.After dawdling for a while, straightening up the shelves, cleaning the fluted edges of the desk, playing with the desk toys, and carefully examining every title of every book on the shelves, I finally couldn’t think of another thing to do instead of calling them. Such bullshit.I groaned. This would be annoying, but I was in their territory and a lot of people had seen me heading to the fae king’s home. I picked up the handset and dialed the number on the paper.
Rhys laid back and Reggie leaned down, kissing him softly, her tongue teasing along his bottom lip until he opened his mouth to her. Reggie’s hand slid down over his chest to fondle and tease at his nipple while her tail pulled the blanket further and slipped between his legs, exploring the newly formed territory.He arched as the tip of her silky tail found the nub it was looking for. Reggie pulled back from the kiss. She slid her hand down to where her tail marked his sensitive spot.“Rhys, are you trembling because you’re excited or because you’re scared, darling?” Reggie whispered.“A little of both.” He replied softly.“This will be unlike anything you’ve e
