“What’s going on?” she whispered weakly. “Why am I all wet?”

“You’re wet because you’re in the tub, my Lady,” Krynn said gently, stroking my forehead. “Your temperature spiked and we had to cool you down.”

“Last thing I remember is flying on the back of a gi-normous dragon,” I murmured and frowned. “Wait…that must have been a dream.”

“That was no dream, Princess—you fainted in mid-air,” Sel said seriously. He and Krynn were both giving me worried looks. They were leaning over me and I realized I was floating in lukewarm water and also that I was completely naked. My modesty kicked in and I tried to cover myself with my hands and arms.

“Help me sit up!” I told them. “I need to dry off.”

“As you wish, my Lady.” Krynn put a hand behind my back and helped me sit while Sel wrapped his long fingers around my upper arm to hold me steady.

The sudden upward movement made the world spin around me and I put a hand to my head.

“I feel dizzy,” I said. “Give me a minute.”

“Take as long as you need,” Krynn said and Sel murmured agreement.

At last the spinning sensation stopped and I dared to open my eyes and look at them.

“What’s going on?” I asked. “You said I fainted? What’s wrong with me?”

“We think you have Thirst-fever, my Lady,” Krynn told me.

“Thirst-fever?” I frowned. “What’s that?”

“It happens when a Queen of the Royal line of Lolth quenches her Thirst with non-Fae blood. Or when she quenches her Thirst but doesn’t satiate the sexual need that comes with it,” Krynn explained.

“And in your case, you did both,” Seldarin pointed out.

“Ohhhh,” I groaned, as memories rushed back to me. “Did I really kill my ex?”

“I’m afraid so, my Lady,” Krynn said.

“But he had it fucking coming,” Sel growled. “So don’t feel bad about that. I was going to kill him myself if you hadn’t.”

“You were?” I looked up at the big Fae with wide eyes. “Why were you going to do that?”

“Because he hurt you,” he said simply. “I won’t fucking tolerate that. So he was a dead man walking—just remember that when you’re tempted to feel remorse for draining him. You gave him a better death than I would have.”

I wasn’t sure how to feel about the big Fae admitting he’d had Christopher on his hit list, but I was beginning to feel strange. I put my hand to my head again, noticing that my skin was hot to the touch. After a minute, I felt a tingling in my nipples. And then my pussy began to feel hot and achy and wet. What the hell?

“What is it, my Lady?” Krynn asked, looking down at me anxiously. “What do you need?”

“I…I don’t know,” I said. I was too embarrassed to tell them that I was suddenly extremely aroused. I had never gotten so horny so fast and for no apparent reason in my life. What was wrong with me? Did it have anything to do with the “Thirst-fever” condition that Krynn said I had?

“She’s hot.” Seladrin’s nostrils flared as he inhaled. “She smells like a female in heat—can’t you tell?”

Krynn nodded.

“It’s the Thirst-fever manifesting in a different way,” Krynn said. “We have to get it under control right away!”

“But how?” I asked, even as he and Sel helped me out of the tub and began to dry me off. Krynn stood behind me and dried my back and shoulders and hair while Sel knelt at my feet and dried the bottom half of me.

At any other time I would have felt self-conscious about being naked between them like that, but at the moment my body was so sexually needy I could barely think about modesty. My mind was crowded with naughty thoughts—and memories of how it felt to lay between the two big, muscular Fae in bed and let them touch me and suck my nipples…
