Here, don’t forget your bells. Elvi grimaced as she took the anklet laced with bells. They’d been a gift from Mabel right after her turning. She’d claimed she thought they were charming, but Elvi knew...
Greg accepted this with some incredulity, then his eyes widened at the ramifications of what she was saying. Then, I’m birthday gift? She nodded slowly, then tilted her head, and said, That’s an odd...

DJ can stay here and help Mabel with the fire. I don’t need any damned help with the fire, Mabel said with irritation. I’m sure you don’t, DJ said soothingly, then grinned and added, but I bet between...
Can I see your fangs again? Valerie asked. Er . . . Justin said, then spotted Anders and smiled with relief. Anders, buddy. Show your woman your fangs. Shy, Bricker? You? Anders asked dryly, moving fo...
