'Oh boy...you know if anyone finds out about this...' the voice
started, only to be stopped by the imagining of a large stone
wall being placed in it's face.
"That's fair." he spoke, having no idea how crowns were
monetary. He pulled his hands back and brought them within his
cloak. He searched around for his coin bag while he stepped back
so she could prepare the flowers for him.

She licked her lips absent-mindedly, and carefully picked out
the bed flower buds from the jar, scooping them into the baggie.
She had given him nearly triple the amount he'd asked for. She
had turned her back to him.

In the time she had turned from him and started bagging the
flowers, he pulled one of his coins from his pouch.
When she'd turned back to hand him the bag, he was gone. Only a
shiny Gold coin lay on her counter, on it, the image of a
beautiful woman dressed in a flowing gown, and featherless,
sheer wings protruding from her back. Her hand outstretched and
her other hand over her breast. Written along it's edge, "Le a
làimh, tha sinn beò" is etched.
He would appear outside of her shop, watching her scoop flowers
and prepare the bag. Shrouded in darkness, he would watch her.

When she turned around, she was surprised to see that he was
gone.
"How... when.." she couldn't even form the words. She walked
over to the counter and saw the glittering coin. then picked it
up. She tilted her head, studying it. "It's so pretty.."

As she picked up the coin, she would get the notion to take the
flowers he was buying home with her. And instruction to place
them under her pillow when she slept was given to her.
When she picked up the coin, he sent her this message from his
shroud of darkness outside of her store.
'Let me guess, she's going to have a rather suggestive dream
tonight...isn't she?' the voice crooned.

She slipped the coin into her pocket, then resumed her closing
duties.

He'd stay for a few moments more, and then he'd disappear once
more and go back to the veil and cross back over it. The night
here was immensely more beautiful and as he crossed over, he
stopped and took a deep breath.
"Enjoy yourself?" that voice spoke from his left ear.
"It was unexpected okay? I didn't intend to speak to anyone, but
she saw me and I couldn't just ignore her." he sighed, pulling
his hood from his head. His rich black hair, silky, and wavy
adjusting to his shoulders where it rests. Pulled in a half
ponytail with two small locks falling over his forehead. His
gaze turning to his cousin at his left who was standing there,
waiting. The man dressed in a dark tunic and leather trousers.
The sleeves billowing from his arms and securing to his wrists
loosely.
"Emrys, you're the Highlord of the Night Court. You can't just
disappear into the human world like you keep doing." he began,
pleading with his cousin.
"Amyr, I know what I'm doing. The Queens told me I would find my
bond with a woman from beyond the veil. How am I supposed to
find her there, if I'm always stuck here?" Emrys grumbled and
started walking toward the palace grounds.

At home, Anya slipped her shoes off and stretched. She walked
upstairs and to her bedroom. Pulling out the coin, she rubbed
her thumb against the engraving softly, before placing it under
her pillow. She then grabbed some clean panties and pajamas,
heading into the bathroom to shower. She loosed her braid, and
her soft curls tumbled down. Turning the shower on to a nice,
hot temp, she slipped in and sighed deeply.
"What a weird night," she murmured to herself.

Emrys returned to the palace, the heavy white stones of the
building glistening in the dark from the raindrops that soaked
it's exterior. He loved how this place shimmered in the rain and
how the light would glow when there was a full moon.
He retired to his room for the evening, removing the heavy cloak
from his shoulders and hanging it back up, now completely dried.
He stripped off his black/blue tunic and black leather trousers,
then pulled on an extravagant pair of silken night wear.
Laying in bed, his bare skin felt wonderful on the similarly
silken bedding and he tucked his arm under his head, looking up
into the black canopy above him. With a flick of his forefinger
and thumb, he flicked a crimson droplet from his hand onto the
canopy and in a moment's notice, he was able to get a blurred
vision of the young woman. When he realized, however, she was
undressed and in the bath, he quickly swallowed and removed the
vision from the canopy.
"She's probably not the one anyway..." he lied to himself,
feeling that rush of energy rage through him when he ended the
vision. "Don't kid yourself Emrys, no mere mortal could ever
love you..." he grumbled to himself and rolled over on his
bedding, closing his eyes.

Anya took her time as she washed her hair and body. Her mind
kept drifting to the gorgeous man from earlier. How she had been
inexplicably pulled to him, the disappointment and ache when he
left. She was confused. He was a stranger to her and yet... she
needed to know him, know everything. She rinsed off, pulling on
a towel, and grabbed her hair oil and mask. As she walked into
the bedroom, she grabbed a pair of deep purple lace panties, and
a baggy shirt.
"That man.. I didn't even get his name, did I?" she mused as she
lotioned up her skin. Once she was dressed, she rubbed the hair
oil and combed it through her hair, then applied the hair mask.
She used a cotton towel to loosely scrunch up the excess water
and product before drying it. Once finished, she slipped into
bed under her duvet cover, laying her head on the pillow that
the coin was tucked under. She yawned and stretched before
curling up.
"Sweet dreams Basha," she mumbled to her rather plump Himalayan
cat who sat perched in the bay window seat.
