Reign (An Unfortunate Fairy Tale 4)

Ever and Brody smiled and spoke at the same time. “Together.”

The End

>“No, no we can’t,” Mina agreed.

“Plus, I happen to have gotten to know him quite well—or at least Jared pretty well—over the last few years. So if someone has an inside scoop on how he thinks, it’s probably me.”

“Ever, thank you.” Mina reached out and gave her a hug, which Ever tried to get out of as fast as possible.

“Yeah, well I’ve seen you in action and you really need all the help you can get. Good looks aren’t going to be enough.” She pointed at Brody, who just shook his head and gave her a wry smile. “Plus someone has to jump in and be your temporary Godmother, while the world is ending. I mean a Grimm can’t be without a Fae Godmother. And all the qualified ones just left.”

Mina couldn’t believe what she was hearing. “Ever, are you serious?”

“About most things in life…No. About this…I’m dead serious.”

“I’d be honored to have you be my Godmother.”

“Great! It’s a deal. Just don’t tell Nan. That’s really not the image I want everyone to associate with me, you know.”

“Pixie promise,” Mina answered.

“Don’t you know it,” Ever said solemnly.

Ever, Mina, and Brody were standing on the shore when the glamour hiding them dropped. Suddenly there was a whole parking lot filled with police, firemen, and what looked like a bomb squad who might be able to see them.

“So what do we do next?” Brody asked while they stared at the flashing lights and sirens going off. It was unbelievable how much had been muffled by the glamour. Even the heat was ten times more intense now than before.

“He’s not finished.” Ever announced. Her wings started to flap quickly, pushing more hot air toward Mina. “This is just the beginning of what he’s going to do.”

“Teague’s got an army, so I think we need an army,” Mina answered.

“And where do you think we’re going to find an army strong enough to take down one of the strongest Fae in both planes?” Ever asked.

Mina pulled out the seam ripper. “I’m not sure, but I think we can come up with something. I won’t give up. Mei wouldn’t want that.”

“Together?” she reached out and put her hand out palm down.

Ever and Brody smiled and spoke at the same time. “Together.”
