too?”
    Mint glanced at Tulip, then nodded her head.
    “Take me to her now!” She started to push herself out of bed again. The Pixies were still holding her down, but couldn’t hope to keep Felicia from getting up if she really wanted to.
    Tulip touched two fingers to Felicia’s forehead. Suddenly Felicia found herself very sleepy.
    “Rest,” Tulip said and Felicia decided to close her eyes for a moment.

    The pink-haired Pixie stood at the foot of the bed and started to take off her clothes, ever so slowly. Felicia reached out to help, but she was just out of reach. The Pixie continued to reveal more and more of herself, showing more skin, more of what Felicia wanted to see, and to touch, and to taste.
    Yet, somehow she never became naked, never removed any of her clothing.
    Felicia was puzzled, but enchanted, and couldn’t look away. Any moment now she would be able to see more…

    “Awake.” It was Tulip’s voice.
    Felicia opened her eyes, instantly feeling awake and not as if she had been sleeping and dreaming just a second earlier.
    Dreaming… the Pixie had just started lifting her skirt. I could see her knees and halfway up her thighs, soft and pale, eager to be caressed. I was about to lose control, I wanted to slide my hand between her legs, find out if she was wet, find out if she was ready for me to taste her.
    But before Felicia could say anything, before she could repeat her demand to be taken see the pink-haired Pixie, Tulip spoke. “I’m going to take you to her now,” she said, speaking in a level voice, obviously trying to hide her feelings on the matter.
    Felicia jumped out of bed. The touch of cool stone on her feet made her look down, and she realized that she was still barefoot and wearing only the undergarments she had been wearing the day before. “Should I change?” she asked Tulip.
    Tulip looked at Felicia, letting her eyes wander down the Vampire’s body. “I wouldn’t,” she said, her voice now suggestive and laced with possibility.
    Despite of her eagerness to meet the pink-haired Pixie, Felicia found herself tempted to dally with the Pixie right in front of her. She smiled at Tulip and, thinking of their little secret, said very quietly, “Is there still a part of you that you’d like me to bite?”
    Tulip locked eyes with the Vampire, then gave a subtle shake of her head and looked away. “We better go,” she said, her voice level again but with a tinge of disappointment. She led Felicia to a door, which opened to a stairway leading up. “Close your eyes when you put your foot on the fourth stair. It’ll make it easier.”
    “What?” Felicia looked at the fourth stair, which looked exactly like all the others. “You mean…”
    “The discontinuity,” she confirmed. “Don’t worry, if you’re expecting it, then it’s not so bad.” She started upward, and when her foot touched the fourth step, her body seemed to waver and warp for a moment before it disappeared.
    Okay…
    Felicia followed, and with only a brief hesitation, closed her eyes and touched the fourth step.
    She felt a brief dropping sensation, as if she were falling in twenty different directions that were constantly changing. Then it stopped. She opened her eyes to see Tulip watching her.
    “See, not so bad,” the Pixie said.
    They walked up to the main room where they had met Winter the night before. There was no sign of other Pixies.
    “Where is everyone?” Felicia asked.
    Tulip continued walking and didn’t look back. “Ariel said everyone should avoid you until this gets cleared up. I’m the only one here right now.”
    “Cleared up? What does that mean?”
    Tulip stopped at the top of the main stairway and looked back. She opened her mouth to say something, then changed her mind. “I’ll let Raspberry tell you.”
    “Raspberry?” The name sounded unbearably delicious. “That’s her name?”
    “Yes.” Tulip started walking down the stairs.
    Raspberries.
