    “Wolfy, is it? And what do you know about my turning?"
    "I asked around when I figured out I was your... mate."
    He stood, crossing to her. "Well, let's hear it."
    "Basically, you'll lose your mind, turning animalistic, hunting me down until you claim me repeatedly, biting my neck and marking me as your possession. Nothing will stop you- no cage can hold you. Did I miss anything?
    "Aye, Lousha." His gaze raked over her and his voice deepened. "The fact that you're going to like it.”

    “Nix to Declan:

    Begin transcript—
    Testing. Hello, hellooo, anybody out there? Check, check, one, two. Soft pee. Puh, puh. Resonance! Sooooooft pee. Alpha bravo disco tango duck.
    This is Nïx! I’m the Ever-Knowing One, a goddess incandescent, incomparable, and irresistible. But enough about what you think of me. It’s a beautiful day in New Orleans. The wind is out of the east at a steady five knots and clouds look like rabbits … But enough about what you think of me!
    Now, down to business—
    Squirrel!
    Where was I? [Long pause] Why am I in Regin’s car? Bertil, you crawl right back out of that bong this minute!
    Oh, I remember! I am hereby laying down this track for Magister Declan Chase. If you are a mortal of the recorder peon class, know that Dekko and I go waaaaay back, and he’ll go berserk (snicker snicker) if he doesn’t receive this transmittal. …
    Chase, riddle me this: what’s beautiful but monstrous, long of tooth but sharp of tooth and soft of mind, and can never ever tell a lie?
    That’s right. The Enemy of Old can be very useful to you. So use him already.
    P.S. Your middle name’s about to be spelled r-e-g-r-e-t.
    And with that, I must bid you adieu. Don’t worry, we’ll catch up very soon. …
    [Muffled] Who’s mummy’s wittle echolocator? That’s right—you are!

    “Can’t hear… call back… good luck…”
    “Nïx, I know you’re faking the static.” She could picture her sister blowing into her fist directly at the receiver. The static abruptly stopped.
    “Why?”
    “It seemed less rude than the alternative.”
    “What’s that?”
    Click.”

    “Have you ever fought an opponent you had no defense against? Like a fire breather or an acid spitter?"
    "Once I faced a female with diamond skin," Nix said breathlessly. "I was transfixed - even as she was choking the life out of me."
    "Really?"
    "No, I saw that character on X-Men. I just wanted to commiserate. Alas, I have no weaknesses.”

    “Yo, beautiful. Come pop this collar off me.”

    “What’s she gonna do? Vivisect me? Imprison me? We’ve got a pact to fulfill,remember?”
    To Dorada, she cried, “Seriously, sweetheart, shake that mummified ass over here.”
    Regin kicked the glass. “Lemme the fuck out—”
    La Dorada swung her head around,peering at Regin with her one eye.
    “Okay. That’s freaky. Lookit, Gollum, if you spring me, I’ll help you find your Precious.”

    “As Lothaire lifted the lid with a sense of dread, Nïx murmured, “Hint: it’s the middle one.”
    Elizabeth’s fragile finger.Seeing it severed like this brought on a visceral reaction—pain shooting through his own hand, radiating throughout his regenerated heart. He closed the lid with a swallow, sentimentally pocketing the package.
    “You gave her your heart, and she gave you the bird.” Nïx sighed. “Songs will be written about this.”

    “He jerked back. "What is this? Be like you were with me the other times! When you melted for me."

    "That was before I fully understood what a nasty piece of work you are."

    "Because of a few shifter beheadings? Come on, Lizvetta, it's not as if I went around cock-slapping gnomes."

    Her jaw dropped.”

    “This is what it's all been about with you," he said in an even tone. "All the fear, all the running. The nightmares." When she nodded, he said, "You called him the devil."
    "He is." What are you thinking, Scot?
    "But you... married him?"
    MacRieve's disgusted with me. "Basically? Yes."
    "Ceremony and everything?"
    She swallowed. "He tricked me into it. I-I was only sixteen."
    A muscle ticked in his cheek and his irises grew pale. "Then know this..."
    She stopped breathing.

    “He'd swiftly collected those monsters' heads, tying them together with a piece of the rope she'd hoped never to see again, then strung them over his shoulder. Periodically, he offered his catch to her.

    "No, no, I have a pair just like them at home," she'd said. "I would just regift them.”

    “When his thumb hovered over the red button, she stared at him aghast. “You’re truly going to … torture me?”
    He cast her a puzzled look. “Why wouldn’t I torture you?”
    Because you used to love me, used to cherish me. “I thought we had a moment yesterday? Didn’t you like seeing me in lingerie?”
    In a monotone voice, he said, “Why did the charge throwers have no ill effect on you?”
    He’s truly going to do it? Then fuck him. DEFCON. “Chase, I’ve tussled with vibrators stronger than your charge throwers.”
    No reaction. “You consumed energy. And channeled it at will. How?”
    All Valkyrie consumed it—they were each connected through a grid of mystical energy—but Regin was the only one she knew of who could radiate it through her body. She’d inherited the talent from her birth mother. “So how does one get started as a magister? College or trade school?”
    “I don’t have the time or patience for games. Now, tell me, why do you … glow?”
    “I touched a radioactive alien cock once.”
    He pressed the button.”

    “Cadeon, can you hear me?"

    He didn't open his eyes. "Nothing wrong with my ears."

    "Of course not." She laid the cloth on his forehead. "So . . you and Tera seemed close."

    "Been through a lot."

    "Was she your girlfriend?"

    He gave a laugh that sounded like a grunt. "Not at all."

    "And you really didn't sleep with Imatra?"

    "Bloody hell, noooo, I didn't . . . She's a slag."

    "Then why did you kiss her?" Holly asked.

    "Directions. . . and to see."

    "To see what?"

    "That it wouldn't be all that bad without you."

    This was interesting. "Did you make a determination?"

    He gave a bitter laugh. "It'll be all that bad."

    Oh, Cadeon. "You've known I was your female for a year?" He nodded. "Why I would be chosen for you?"

    "Fate decides . . . who I can be most satisfied with."

    Nibbling her lip, she asked, "Have you slept with anyone else since you knew it was me?"

    "Gave a halfhearted try for a witch . . . she wanted a werewolf instead."

    There was no getting around it--Holly was jealous of the witch.

    But then Cadeon said, "And I wanted you.”

    “She scrambled to her feet. She knew her sisters were eyeing her strangely, knew that what she was feeling was undisguised. Right then, she didn't care. She turned and ran for him. Bastian! Standing at the door, so tall and proud.

    When he saw her, his lips parted, then he absently palmed the center of his chest.

    As she hadn't slowed, he opened his arms - she knew what this meant - but she didn't hesitate to run into them, leaping up and latching onto him. They would have gone reeling if he weren't so strong.

    The Valkyrie who'd flown down the stairs at the marked lightning saw her. All around them, she heard gasps. One muttered, "She ran to his arms. I saw it."

    "Bastian, I missed you!" Kaderin whispered.

    "God, I missed you, too," he murmured, clutching her.”

    “When the warden appeared outside their cell, he ogled Regin's bared midriff. Gross. Whenever men leered at her, Regin tended to leer back. She canted her head on the floor, turning it one way, then the other. "I finally understand what a dickie-do is. Your gut does stick out more than your dickie do.”

    “When she absently worried her bottom lip with one of her adorable little fangs, he sighed.
    The Enemy of Old fucking sighed.
    Dear gods, it’d finally happened to him.
    Happiness.
    Then his own fangs sharpened.I will kill anyone who tries to take this feeling away from me.”

    “He's like six hundred years younger than you are. I refuse to be the moral compass of our cell! Most weekends I have an intoxispell bong attached to my mouth like a respirator. I love scatological humor, and I list 'pranks involving nuclear waste' and 'making demons eat things' as my hobbies.”

    “She, too, is one of Regin’s friends. They’re poker buddies, sisters of the Wii, and Mari is a vaunted member of the karaoke contingent. Regin has long acted as the witches’ designated driver.” “BFF?” Lachlain asked, brows drawn. “Sisters of the what?”
    Emma supplied, “Best friend forever and a video game.”
    Lachlain muttered to Emma, “Your relatives are just no’ right.”

    “Aidan from the past: He took her hands in his bloodied, callused ones. “Accept me?” His eyes glowed, his lashes spiked from rain.

    Declan in the present: He gripped her nape. “I fuckin love you, Regin!” Rain spiked his lashes as he gazed down at her, commanding her, “Love me back!”

    “Nix and Lothaire:

    When the collar dropped to the ground, Lothaire rolled his head on his neck. But instead of disappearing immediately, he traced to stand mere feet from Nïx.
    A towering vampire with skin like marble and chillingly flawless features was staring down a petite Valkyrie with crazed eyes and a cryptic smile.
    The tension between the two was palpable. Even on the verge of flipping the fuck out, Regin couldn’t look away.
    “The Accession grinds on, does it not?” Lothaire said.
    “Just like old times.” Nïx winked. “Alas, Dorada will come for you once she rises again.”
    “I’ll be ready.” He narrowed his red eyes. “You’ve likely foreseen this moment. Tell me, are we to fight now? As in the past?”
    “You defy foresight, Lothaire.”
    “That’s only fair, Phenïx, since you’ve long defied insight.” Phenïx?
    Nïx canted her head. “What does your Endgame tell you?”
    “That white queen will never take black king.” He gave her a formal bow. “Until our next match.”
    “There won’t be a next match, vampire.”
    His brow creased into a frown, the Enemy of Old disappeared.”

    Elizabeth is my happiness, he thought again. “I could hate her for what she did to me.”
    “Because of one unsuccessful beheading?” She tapped her claw to her chin. “Wow. I never thought you were such a pussy. I’m rethinking our friendship.”

    “Lothaire is very much alive.”
    “You swear?”
    “Often. Though not as much as foul-mouthed Regin. I try not to in front of Bertil.” She petted the bat.
    “I meant—will Lothaire live?”
    “He will.”
