  • I
  • hate
  • you,"

  • They
  • lay
  • flat
  • on
  • their
  • backs
  • on
  • top
  • of
  • the
  • supplies,
  • the
  • ceiling
  • spinning
  • above,
  • gasping
  • for

  • "Some
  • partner
  • you
  • are.
  • You
  • puked
  • on
  • me!" "It's
  • your
  • fault,"
  • Ben
  • wheezed.
  • "I
  • wouldn't
  • have
  • barfed
  • on
  • you,
  • if
  • you
  • hadn't
  • barfed
  • on
  • me
  • first."Sixteen-year

  • tasked
  • with
  • closing
  • the
  • portals
  • between
  • the
  • world
  • of
  • man
  • and
  • the
  • world
  • of
  • Em
  • --
  • a
  • magical
  • land
  • created
  • to

  • creatures
  • of

  • Unfortunately,

  • don't
  • go
  • the
  • way

  • planned

  • all.
  • Barely
  • a
  • day
  • passes
  • where
  • their
  • lives
  • aren't
  • in
  • mortal
  • danger.
  • To
  • make

  • worse,
  • the
  • waters
  • of
  • Ben's
  • relationship
  • with
  • his
  • half-breed
  • faerie
  • mate,
  • Cree,
  • are
  • anything
  • but
  • tranquil.
  • And
  • if
  • that
  • isn't
  • bad
  • enough,
  • he

  • and
  • delight.
  • Facing
  • seemingly
  • insurmountable
  • obstacles
  • the
  • entire
  • way,
  • Ben
  • and
  • the
  • others
  • are
  • determined
  • to
  • complete
  • their
  • mission
  • or
  • die trying.
