My gaze drifted from the books to a huge amethyst geode perched on top of the bookcase. It was almost three feet tall, the maw shimmering with thousands of purple teeth. It looked splendid and rich.

"That? It's five hundred."
I pulled my hand away. Yikes.

Only?! For an amethyst geode that big, it should have a price tag of 4 figures.

Something was wrong. Not with the baby, but with me. I gazed at it, and felt no longing, no desire for one of my own.

My fingers closed tightly around the piece of obsidian, hard enough for the edges to chew into my palm and summon drops of red.

Obsidian is so sharp, she wouldn't even have to try hard for it to cut her.
