    Private Tales By The Pale Moonlight

    There were a few seconds where it seemed that Lunabelle was going to win her bet. All three of the sprites were looking from the human woman, to the goblin fae and back again. Then Sindra spoke. Like to see? The back of him! A little flame flickered towards Vaxyr. It had the appearance of a...

    Sindra tilted her head to one side. Daedro and Branice vanished, but reappeared closer to Lunabelle. They didn't like to set Vaxyr's temper off but they found the human's behaviour amusing. It didn't have him in it! Sindra replied. Vaxyr sighed. "They could leave. It's not easy for a...

    Vaxyr rolled his eyes. The fae lord then slowly shook his head. "They do not mean that quite literally in this case," he explained. "They were here before me. The fact that I was exiled here means they think I have spoiled their corner of these woods. Which does make me wonder..." He turned...

    She says we are simple! No, it was Vaxyr said we're not inter-actual. One of them vanished, appearing on the floor closer to Luna's feet. Ask him how he came to spoil our grove! Sindra flared a little brighter. Vaxyr wasn't going to interrupt Sindra. That would have felt like cheating...

    He rolled his eyes at her smile. She was a human. She should have been terrified by what he might do to her. At the very least she should have been concerned about a coven of vampires coming after her. She had sharpened the stake, he reminded himself. "A tour of the grounds it is," he...

    Vaxyr leaned back, bemused by her reaction. He had missed the chance to mess with mortals by brokering deals and stacking the odds in his favour. He should have been delighted, but her lack of fear in seeing him for what he was concerned him. She thought she was going to win this. She was...

    "Afraid of me?" he asked, with a shake of his head. "It is because they are tiny half wits." He pointed a claw in her direction and, for the first time, he offered a genuine smile. "A wager!" he declared. "You may hold a conversation with the wisps for as long as you want. If I am...

    Vaxyr kept looking away. He drew his cup to his lips, forcing her to look at his profile as he took a sip. She hadn't thanked him. She had been in a state of distress, nearly killed by a vampire. Not only had she fashioned a stake, but she had worked out how she had ended up in the situation...

    Vaxyr sat in silence, attempting to stare the mortal down. She was on edge; he could hear her pulse racing. He did not win the battle of wills. Her pulse slowed and she held his gaze. Vaxyr could have used a word of power now she had offered thanks and given him that advantage. He could...

    Vaxyr remained quite still. The wisp in the room made a small sound and vanished. It need not have. "I..." Vaxyr leaned across the table, setting his hand down on it firmly. "I have torn out the tongues of mortal, bound their souls to torture demons, split their minds in two... All for...

    He regarded the human carefully. Vaxyr even leaned forwards across the table to take a closer look. "Curious. You worry about more vampires with your scent than about being trapped here." He didn't extend his wings and yet the shadows seemed to grow behind him. "I used to be feared by...

    Once again he found her calm demeanour irritating. He had been respected and feared. Then he had crossed too many lines and fear had become loathing and jealousy. And those had turned into plots against him. "I do not wish to speak of that," he said plainly. In reflection, that probably...

    "You seem surprisingly calm given the events of the last day," Vaxyr observed. It was slightly frustrating. All this time and a mortal brought him tea. No begging. No quaking in fear. "No. I live in exile," he offered freely. One of the wisps would have told her anyway. "This is acceptable...

    He enjoyed her shock, but that was ruined by the seemingly cheerful attitude that followed. She even stepped past him and into his room! Vaxyr turned on the spot. He frowned down at the mortal. This, too, did not seem to send her scurrying away. "Mmm," he went, stepping back into the room. He...

    Footfalls came from beyond the door. They were not heavy. She had seen the size of the goblin fae, but he padded lightly. The door slowly opened inwards. There was plenty of light for her to see Vaxyr up close. His midriff was at her eye level and she would have to crane her neck to look up...
