    Private Tales Magic Steeped in Poison

    Ophelia’s response to Marianne’s threat would be a simple eye roll. She didn’t want to be there; leaving the academy was the goal. And sooner was always better than later if it meant she could get the fuck away from all of these people. She crossed her arms and leaned back in the chair. Her...

    “Let go of me. Now!” Ophelia writhed against Proctor Jeeves as he dragged the girl down the hallway. She’d been there no longer than seven months and had made it clear on any given occasion that she did not wish to stay at the academy. She had no interest in being some pawn for Vel Anir. It...

    You need not worry yourself, Miss Eärtári. The unfamiliar voice startled her as the gates to Elowen’s garden opened, revealing a face she’d seen once, at the tournament. Had a crown not been placed upon his head, she would still recognize him by Quacey’s description of his friend. He was the...

    Ophelia remained frozen in place as she confirmed what she had hoped was some sort of horrible miscommunication. "Two...?" She whispered. "Please tell me you aren't serious." One child was bad enough, but two? The smile on Elowen's face was enough to know she was not joking around on such...

    "Be glad you don't know the pain." Her words were not meant to come across as cruel, though she could not predict how the woman would take them. Many women would kill to conceive, but she wished she had never gone to the funeral that brought her to Quacey every single day. She didn't know...

    "I can only hope so." She fought to hide the amusement in her voice. "You're right, though. No sense hiding away if I'm only in a dream." She tried to preserve their distance, quietly walking beside him until he pulled her close. "Oof-" She grunted, definitely caught off guard by his sudden...

    "If you're confident you can fix what I kill then I suppose its alright if we go. But don't say I didn't warn you." She was hesitant, but didn't want to decline the offer if it wasn't going to be a big deal to bring life back to the plants Ophelia would kill. For a moment, she was even a tad...

    "Oh..." Ophelia rested a hand on Elowen's shoulder, giving it a gentle squeeze. She noticed the tension she had inadvertently caused and made an attempt to comfort her. "Forgive me, you just have a very motherly aura about you." She let her hand fall. "And you seem to know much more about...

    "Knowing him, he'd probably bring his child along with. I'd bet he'd manage to somehow find even more lost women that way." She chuckled quietly. "I do hope that's not the case. I don't mind him going about his business, but everyone needs rest. I wish he'd take some time to make his home...

    Well, shit...her subtle hints appeared to be too subtle as the woman repeated her offer. "You're too kind. I should not be staying too long, so you don't need to worry too much about me." She returned the smile. "Almost halfway through..." Quacey had offered her space in Twinhome, which she...

    “Are you sure I’m not being a bother?” Ophelia stood before the Chamberlain of the Spring Court who had graciously offered to give her a tour of Grovehaven after she decided she’d make the temporary move to be closer to Quacey. Given the rather unfortunate rumors that surrounded her in her own...

    "Oh, you know me so well." Ophelia pouted, crossing her arms. "I would love nothing more than to spoil your grand tournament, but I think we both know I would rather pretend none of this has happened at all. As a matter of fact, maybe it hasn't. Maybe I slipped and hit my head and I am in a...

    Ophelia stopped speaking and followed his instruction, taking deep breaths to try to calm herself down. As she did, though, she shook her head as if to tell him he was wrong. Why would she have any other reason to believe this would end in heartbreak? Even in regards to Quacey's status, she...

    Fae Courts The Twins' Tournament

    Once again, Ophelia allowed him to guide her without putting up a fight. Something was different about her typically sad features. Even her once confident, almost cocky aura seemed defeated in a way. "It's not okay." She sighed quietly, staring at the floor below. "It's really not...
