And why did he care?
/> Oh yeah.
Because she’d given him the best damn sex of his life, and he wanted more. Out of all of the women Felix had bedded, he’d never been interested in a second go, but with Tabitha, he wanted more.
A lot more.
Was that so wrong to want?
“You just don’t seem like a crazy psycho,” she finally said. “You know, for someone who lives on an island ruled by a witch.”
“How do you know so much about her, anyway?” Felix asked, curious. Ursula had always kept to herself. Despite the fact that she had guests to the island from time to time or that she hosted elaborate parties, she’d never been particularly open about what it was that she did.
“I have my ways,” Tabitha said noncommittally.
That wasn’t going to be good enough, though.
“Tell me.”
“Why? What good will come from talking about her?”
“You want to kill her,” Felix said. His voice held just a hint of accusation. It didn’t really matter. Ursula was already dead. Eventually, Tabitha was going to realize that.
“Yeah, I want to kill her,” Tabitha sighed.
“Why?”
“Have you ever killed anyone?” Tabitha asked, surprising him.
His honesty surprised him even more.
“Yes.”
“Then you know that sometimes, there are very good reasons for killing people, Felix.”
“You’re assuming I killed for a good reason.”
“Didn’t you?”
Yes, he had.
The witch had stolen everything from him. Everything. She’d taken his childhood and his past. She’d taken his heritage. She’d taken everything she could, and then she’d taken a little bit more. She’d kept him locked up like a little pet she could take out and prance around whenever she wanted to entertain her company.
She even had a pet name for him.
Dragon.
Felix hated it.
He’d never understood why she called him that or why her guests did. It was strange, really. It was just such a random sort of thing. He’d tried to ask her about it before, but she’d never been willing to talk about it, and so the secret had died with her.
“Yes,” he finally said.
“Well, I have a good reason, too.”
“Will you tell me?”
“Why do you want to know?”
