My mom was a Shee Fios (she could see past Fae Magic). She was a seer, and the
Seelie Fae long ago had given themselves the right to keep the Shee Fios in Faery. (There
was a time when the Fios were blinded, or killed, but that is another story.)
That had worried me, and it must have showed on my face, because the most
handsome prince I had ever lain eyes on touched my hair and then my chin. He picked
me up and swung me before he put me down to whisper, Don t worry, child. It sounds
worse than it is.
The prince had been standing at the queen s side and quickly interceded, saying,
Desmond Lang fought at my side on many occasions over the centuries, my Queen. He
is a dear comrade and friend, and I vouch for his loyalty to you.
And his wife she is Fios. What say you about her loyalty?
I have been a friend to both, and I have witnessed her faithfulness in keeping the
secrets of the Fae, he answered carefully.
The queen eyed the prince indulgently, and then those magnificent eyes of hers came
to rest on me. I drew myself up to full attention. I was a child, but I discovered a sudden
desire to pledge my loyalty to her. I wanted to please her. I wanted my dad to get what he
wanted, but in that moment, looking at her, I felt more a Fae than anything else. I wanted
this magnificent queen to like us, and I wanted her to know that I would always think of
her as my queen. (Little did I know that she would remember that moment!)
She spoke softly to me. Well then, little one, you are too young to receive this boon,
but do you think you will want it when you are older?
I don t know, my Queen. I shrugged. Maybe I m not old enough to know & but,
older people don t always know what they want either.
The queen s laugh was musical and delighted me. Take a guess, she urged me
gently. What do you think you might want?
I thought about this and decided. I know I would like to please you. You are so
beautiful & and maybe it would be nice to live forever & I was a child, and she was a
glittering personage of magical power. She was about to make my mom live forever. I
was more than infatuated with everything Fae at that moment. I glanced towards the
prince, and he winked at me. That was it I was his.
It was all something out of a storybook. Well, Duh we were in Faery!
And it had been a time long before my teen incident with Valtye.
Sweet Fae child, she whispered and then turned to my dad. The elixir is yours.
The royal prince of Dagda bent to me then and spoke softly. Remember now, do not
make a decision about this elixir until you know you are wise enough to deal with the
many consequences. He thought about this for a moment and then added, In fact, come
to me when you are ready, and we will explore the question together.
I looked at him and absolutely felt the heat in my cheeks. Okay, was all I was able
to say.
He kissed my nose and said that one day I would grow up to break hearts. I giggled
and told him I that I had no wish to do such a thing, and he laughed. I saw him from a
distance after that when my father took me to Tir, and once he looked my way and
actually blew me a kiss, sealing his place in my dreams.
That memory came flooding back to me now, but I could see he still didn t know who
I was. Good. This could be interesting.
He had said his name with pride. I was smiling and looking him over. Except for the
fact that he was wearing human clothes now, he was exactly as I remembered him. Tall,
dark blonde warrior Fae with a smile that seduced without trying. He had called me Shee
Willow Shee meaning Fae. He had an Old World accent similar to my father s. Shee
Willow from him was more than fine. After all, he was a royal Fae, and I supposed he
believed he was giving me a sign of respect.
I asked him what he wanted to talk to me about. What could be so important?
He answered by swooping me into his embrace and whispering softly, I want to talk
to you for many reasons. However, you are a tempting beauty, and I would like to get to
know & His kisses gently covered my neck and my ears with ease and expertise.
I managed to pull away. I mean this was too much too soon even for my infatuated
person. Just what was happening here and why I wanted the real why of it explained.
Trying to maintain composure while I held my towel tightly in place, I stepped back
and away from him and told him roundly, Hold on, fella.
He grinned wickedly and stepped towards me once more. I put my arm out and
wagged a finger. Breslyn, Prince of Dagda why are you here & the real reason now, if
you please? I realized then that I would always be a Fae. I wasn t just human, as I had
been pretending to everyone for so long. Here was another part of my life. Here was
another part of who I was. I was Fae as well as human. I had their powers, their magic
and Fae abilities. However, I was human because I was mortal.
He studied me for a moment before saying, The other reason you mean? He
