Right. She has never gotten used to that.

Mab led him to the stables

" He doesn't have to leave for you to be there. "

"I would much rather not get my throat slit."

" He would not do that. At least, not while i'm around. "

Of course. But despite his cuddly appearance, hes got a lot of power, some real sharp claws, and even sharper fangs. Getting on his bad side is just as dangerous as getting on Mabs. Maybe even more so, because he has less enemies to need to prioritize.

Puck shrugged yet again. "Whatever."


Right. And the fey would be much more relaxed around Wren, not thinking he was a danger to them.

Exactly. Despite him being king, very few people know just how dangerous oreads can be. Which Wren likes, because he doesnt want people to be afraid of him. He only needs his enemies to know that hes dangerous, and thats only to dissuade them from antagonizing him.

Right. But most of the Seelie fey just laugh at the thought of him being dangerous unless they know what he could do.

" Puck, Do you still...love...me? " she hesitated on the word 'love.'

He studied her for a moment. "Princess, just because I don't want my throat slit you think I don't love you anymore?"
