“Ah, perhaps, as Loli has inferred, the Witches of Draoidheil have promise

d to help her free you in return for a favor,” Tomin said quietly. “Before I make up my mind in this matter, I must look into the reports my security department has and see what sort of activity has taken place in the last month. That should help me decide what the truth is.” He sighed. “When I am done, we shall satisfy all sides in this distressful matter. Caution, my friend, has always been the way I rule.”

The net, with us tightly against one another inside of it, was lifted by four big soldiers and deposited unceremoniously into the bed of a military truck. I objected again, “Hey, why so rough?”

Devin rolled us so I was on top of him, as he lay on the hard surface beneath me. I laughed and said, “What are you doing?”

“Don’t ye like to ride me, lass?”

I laughed. “It is one of the reasons I came to Trinity tonight.” At that moment, I saw a tall, good-looking Elfin male stride up to Loli, and I watched with interest.

His skin was darker, like sweet chocolate, and his hair fell in neat silver streaked lengths to his shoulders. He was a hunk, definitely older than Loli, but not by much.

I was amazed to see her lashes flutter.

I craned my neck to keep watching and Devin said, “What are ye doing?”

“Shhh,” I told him.

The hunk touched her shoulder gently and she moved not away, but closer to him. My witch hearing is excellent, and although they stood at least twenty feet away, I heard him say, “Loli, you are wrong in this. Devin is our friend and he told the truth. You know you are doing this because you feel…unhappy that he chose this female.”

“Who is this guy?” I whispered to Devin.

“I cannae quite see him, but he sounds like Topser,” Devin whispered back.

“Topser, do you think me that awful that you would suspect my motives?”

“I think you are that young—that angry, and I hold out hope that you will see for yourself and instead of continuing in this action, you will take another and accept my courtship,” he said.

Loli made a distressed sound and snapped, “And thinking this awful thing about me, you still wish to court me?”

“Of course, Loli, I know you. I am not bewitched. I see you with my eyes wide open and want you just as you are, but I know this behavior…it isn’t really you,” he said.

“Ha! You don’t know me at all and will be sadly disappointed if I allowed you to court me.” She snapped two fingers in the air. “I must go.”

The truck rumbled off and I couldn’t hear anymore, but I did see Loli turn away from him and run off in a huff.

“Okay, do I break out of this, or do ye?” Devin said.

“But being on you, with the truck moving and rumbling…” I pressed myself against his hard-on. “Is such fun.”

He laughed. “Coom on, lass, time for us to leave.”

“How can you break out?”

“This is gold netting…gold is soft and I have vampire muscle,” he said, and grinned.

I kissed his nose, his cheek, his mouth, and teased him with a little grinding.

“Och aye, lass, if that’s what ye want here and now, let’s break out and get in a good fuck before ye go home.” He chuckled.

“Tempting, but not leaving you. I want to clear us of the accusation if we can, then it is to your cottage where you will give me the notebooks so I can take them to Beyland.”

“Now, why would ye be doing that so soon?”

“Because he knows how to free you and will tell me how to do it if I get him all the notebooks. He says he doesn’t have to tell me how to free you, but he will, and I think he will because it would anger Allora, whom he despises.”
