white ceiling. “First off, it’s just the weirdest damned thing I’ve ever heard of. I mean, people all over Manhattan reporting sightings of a leprechaun when it’s nowhere near the seventeenth or March and so far as I know, the city has not been pumping crack into the drinking water. All these witnesses tested as sober when they were questioned.”
    “By the police?” Ava arched a slim, dark eyebrow.
    Corinne snorted. “Hardly. Oh, a couple of them tried to file police reports, but they hadn’t seen any crimes being committed, and they were talking about fairies, for God’s sake, so the cops pretty much laughed them back out the door. No, the recorded statements we have are from a couple of tabloids and two fairly respectable PIs.”
    “But there’s no evidence that any of these reports have any sort of credibility, is there?”
    “Nope.” Corinne turned to look at her friend. “Have I mentioned I want to watch my boss be devoured by a pack of rabid gerbils?”
    “Not yet. Gerbils?”
    “They have small teeth. It would take longer than wolves or hyena.”
    “Ah. Nonetheless, I have a feeling this story isn’t going away.” Unfolding her tall, elegant frame from her seat, Ava rose, collected the empty wine glasses and carried them back toward her kitchen. “I saw Mindy Daniels, from the TV station, at the Four Seasons this afternoon. She said even their program director is thinking of putting someone on it.”
    Corinne groaned, loud enough to be sure Ava would hear her in the other room. “Shoot me. Just shoot me now.”
    “Ha! Not if you’re going to bleed all over my carpet.”
    “Remind me why we’re friends again?”
    Ava reappeared in the living room holding the receiver from a cordless phone. “Because I just called a cab to take you home so you wouldn’t have to stand outside waiting in this heat, and I charged it to my account.”
    “How is that a reason? Yeah, the cab is nice, but doesn’t that mean you’re kicking me out?”
    “You said you wanted to leave by ten so you could get an early start in the morning with those, quote
    ‘loathsome interviews.’ End quote.”
    Corinne sighed. “Right. So I suppose I can let this one slide. But I still don’t know what it says about me that I continue to hang out with you after the Fantasy Fix thing.”
    “Let’s not start that again.” Ava picked up her friend’s backpack and held the straps while Corinne slipped into it. “I still say there’s nothing wrong with seizing the moment when a sexual fantasy just drops itself in your lap.”
    “The only thing that’s dropped into my lap recently,” Corinne said, “is this damned story. And look how Page 15

    far that’s gotten me.”
    As she led the way to the door, Ava looked back over her shoulder and arched her brow. “You never did have any patience, Corinne, darling, but I’m sure you’ll get yours one day.” Corinne snorted. “Knowing my luck, mine is the damned leprechaun.” Chapter Four

    Luc waited outside the human’s apartment building for an hour before impatience got the better of him.
    When he’d talked to Dmitri and Regina after leaving Rafe’s house, they had given him the woman’s address and informed him that while her schedule varied, she usually arrived home by nine or so during the week. According to Regina, weekends presented more of a challenge.
    “Corinne likes to…stay active,” Dmitri’s bride had reported. “And she’s certainly not lacking for a social life. She just isn’t the sort of woman to sit at home and wait for Mr. Right to call. She’s too busy going out and killing time with Mr. You’ll Do.”
    Regina sounded charmingly diplomatic when she said that, and Luc didn’t have the heart to tell her a woman who enjoyed sex was hardly likely to shock the Fae. Humans were the only creatures he could think of off the top of his head that actually got hung up
