Zephyrine
I picked one of Lycannar’s shirts from where he had hung them and slipped it on, watching it fall to my knees. I reached to pull my hair up, but his fingers wrapped around my waist, pulling my hands down.
“Leave your hair down. I love them that way.”
He placed a soft kiss on my neck, then pulled away, compelling me to turn. He was fully dressed for dinner and pouring a potion into a cup. I watched him drink it, then lower the cup, waiting as though he wanted it
to settle.
“What’s that for?” I asked, and he hesitated before replying.
“To dull my beasts.”
Beasts. He made it sound as though he had more than one. I was about to question him when the sound of footsteps reached us and the clatter of cutlery being set drifted through the hall.
At the doorway of the bed chamber, Princess Mearez appeared, stopping at the threshold. She smiled happily.
“Zephyrine, come in. Dinner is ready.”
I walked toward her at once, letting her guide me out of Lycannar’s living room and into the hall.
“How do you feel?” she asked softly as we walked.
“Fine.”
She pushed a door open into an outdoor space. Four chairs surrounded a small table, and I paused when I saw the dinner laid out. Princess Serena was pouring a drink as I approached. She smiled at me.
“She is here.”
“Come sit. You m t be tired.”
Princess Mearez pulled me down into a seat, taking hers beside me, searching my eyes.
“Did he hurt you anywhere?”
I swallowed hard at what she meant.
“Just a bruise that refuses to heal on my neck.”
Princess Serena rushed over to check, letting out a frustrated groan.
“Have you both talked about it? I mean… your sex life?” she asked, and I nodded.
“He’s gentle when we made love an hour ago.”
Princess Mearez sighed in relief, and I felt warmth spill from her touch. Before I could move, I noticed the

bruise on my neck fading completely. She had healed me.
“My love, are you on birth control?”
I stared at Mearez at the question, and Serena added,
“You might end up being pregnant if you’re not.”
I shook my head.
“I’m not.”
The sisters exchanged a glance before turning back to me.

“Go on,” Princess Mearez said, then turned to me. “Go on, Zephyrine.”
