her.

Arthur was agitated. He watchedas she straightened the cables, and hegasped with the rest when she charged them with power a momentbefore the car struck and launched herself skyward. The whipslashed out and sliced the car into four pieces: one parallel andone perpendicular.

The car continued and slidapart.

The men cheered, and a few groaned.

Stinger wrapped her bands aroundher wrists and went to the driver’s side door. She knocked on thewindow, and a clawed hand shot pasther.

Arthur watched as there was morehooting as the villain was determined to be a supernatural.

Stinger opened the door andpulled him out, wrapping the glowing tail of one of her stingersaround his throat. Arthur didn’t know what she wassaying, but he could guess it wasn’tpleasant.

“She’s gone, Robert. She’s been gone forhours. We have been waiting for you to try and find her; here youare.” She chanted it in a singsong.

“Let go, bitch! I am going toteach Tara what it means to try and leave.”

“Oh, you did that already. I wasthere for her intake. I told her what we would do to you if youtried to come after her, and here you are.” She whispered, “I am awoman of my word, Robert.”

She dropped the leather and drewthe energy through his body. His struggling form went limp. “Oh,dear. It seems the accident was rather unfortunate. You have nofeeling below the neck. If you don’t want it to stay that way, putsome effort into learning how it feels to be at the mercy of thefolks around you. Don’t worry. The nice people at the shelter arecalling 911. You will have help soon. Isn’t it nice to have peopleyou can believe in?”

She got up and finished wrappingthe band around her right wrist. She walked toward theshelter, and the oracle rushed out andgripped her hands. They touched foreheads, and the oracle smiled. “Oh, you have metsomeone.”

Stinger looked up. “Yeah, but Iwill probably send him running. I am about to head back to thewedding. Do you need any help?”

“No, Tara is on her way toCrioss. The harpies have an excellent counselling centre, and thanks toOrvis’s intervention, they are takingmore people with our recommendation.”

She sighed and flexed her neckwhile Robert started sobbing. “Right; Ihave to get back.”

“Take it easy on your male. He’sfighting a few thousand years of running. He’s working on it.”

“Stop being an oracle,oracle.”

She got her hair ruffled.

“Go and help close the party.Cops and ambulance are on the way, and Ihave to do my scared caretaker bit.”

“Yes, ma’am.” Stinger walkedinto the middle of the lane and summoned the fire storm. She walkedinto it and let it take her back to where she was supposed to be.Back to the party.

Abrax was grinning, and Leetha walked over to him. “Stop smiling likethat.”

“Why? Our daughter ismagnificent.”

Leetha looked at him, and then, she nodded.“You are right. She is. That is one thing that we agree on.” Hersmile softened. “I didn’t care where she came from the first momentI saw her.”

“She’s coming back!” The magesscrambled to disperse the viewing window and headed back to thebar.

She landed heavily and staggered,dismissing the tornado and walking back to the party, trying tohold herself upright and move casually. The fire ripping throughher made her wish for one of her little USB rechargeable friends totake the edge off. They were nearly to dawn now. Things would bewrapped up soon.

Her mother came up to her andasked, “How bad is it?”

She hugged her mom with one arm.“Pretty fucking bad.”

“You didn’t get to vent alittle?”

“Nope. He was alone, and I restrained myself.”

“Why?”

“She was safe. There was noreason to kill him. He will learn about being helpless, and I mightvisit later and give him pain. Orvis might want to get in on thisaction, but she’s really busy tonight.”

Her aunt Kallie came up to her.“Hey, Stinger, can you close it up? Wait,are you okay?”

“A little wobbly. Can you findsome sacrificial guys?”

“Sure. Do you have a preferencefor species?”

“The dark elves are less likelyto get affectionate.”

She glanced over, and Arthur was talking to her father. That wasn’tweird at all. When they shook hands, she frowned and headed intothe tent.

Kallie had six guys lined up.Stinger moved forward, and one of themheld her.

He asked in concern, “Can you dothis?”

“Yeah. Not a fan of it, but Ican do it.” She smiled. “Pick some music,and brace yourself. On the plus side, you should be able to takehome any of the unattached females.”

He smiled. “What about you?”

“I think I am just going to gofor a nap.”

He chuckled and nodded to theDJ. The tango started up again. She looked at the man holding her.“Really?”

He grinned. “The first one wasvery stimulating.”

She sighed, squared up, and theystarted dancing. As she danced, she exhaled the power that was pentup. They went through the first few measures, and then, her partnerstaggered back, his eyes glowing hot red.

Her next partner tookover, and she continued releasing thefeminine energy that kept rising in her.

He fell back and was caught bysome of the others. She took on the third, and then the fourth,fifth, and sixth. When the last onefell, she was still keyed up. She moanedand then screamed as the fire ripped through her. When she next sawOrvis, she was going to punch her in the gut. If Orvis got laidmore often, then she wouldn’t be dealing with theoverflow.

She heard Kallie invitingsomeone onto the dance floor. She waspicked up and held while the energy streamed out of her. Sherecognized the scent and struggled against him.

“Easy, Stinger. Give it tome.”

She looked at him, and he winced. She turned her head away and pushedat him. He didn’t move. She pushed again. Nothing.

“Stinger. Give it to me. I canmanage it.”

She blinked and nodded, slidingher hands up his torso to his neck. He met her halfway. She feltthe brush of his lips on hers, and sheslid her tongue along his lips, teasinguntil he reciprocated. When their kiss deepened, she felt a tug atthe energy inside her and the floodgate burst. The rush of powerflowed out of her and into Arthur. It flowed
