guess we’d better get out there. Four designer gowns await.”

CHAPTER FOUR
    The more James tried to meditate, the worse at it he got. He picked up a random sneaker from the seat of the wing chair and sat down. He nervously turned the lights on and off in the room with his gift, and his mind wandered back to the day Pax rescued him from the prison at Toltec’s old labs. The male had been in a different form then, but James’s memory always played it back with Pax in his true form, of course. He rubbed his temples. God, that pissed him off. Like, what, Pax was his Prince Charming? Was there a glass shit kicker around he could leave on the main stairs?
    There was a knock at the door just as James popped the light bulb in the antique lamp. The sound rang out like a gunshot. In seconds, Diesel was in the room with his hand on the holster of his pistol. “What the fuck?”
    “Sorry, Dies. False alarm.”
    “Jesus Christ. Stop dicking off. You almost gave me a heart attack. For real, dude.”
    Diesel took a box out of his back pocket and tossed it to him. “I brought you your ruby cufflinks. Do you know how to fasten them?”
    “Yeah, it’s the bow tie I’m gonna have issues with.”
    “We all are, believe me. We switched to tuxes in honor of the Goddess. Have Dimitri do it. He’s got mad skills.”
    “Will do.”
    The brother headed out. “I’ll see you in a couple. And don’t lose those cufflinks.”
    Curious, James opened the box and looked at the rubies inside. Huh. They seemed kind of antique. Man, that was a whole lotta carats. He turned one over. They were engraved.
    VS. Hmm. Vintage.
    He carefully took care of the light bulb before heading into the bathroom. He triggered the light and looked at his reflection in the mirror. Yeah, the metal would have to go for the night. Fuck. He’d be lucky if they didn’t heal up on him. He removed the piercings from his face and ears, but decided not to bother with the barbell in his tongue. He opened a box of hair dye. His hair was still dyed black, but it didn’t need to be the faded out craptacular color it was. Once he was in the hot shower he pulled the gel through his hair, put the water on the highest setting, and let it run down his back. This was gonna be hell.
     
    Evy walked down the mansion’s upstairs hallway and stopped at Ana and SE’s door. The female opened it and came out before she knocked. Man. She was still getting used to the whole Seer thing. Other than the Goddess herself, she had more k’ul than anyone else in the house. Easy to detect was putting it mildly. That kind of change wasn’t the easiest for someone who at five feet tall was used to having to practically announce her presence.
    The little hummingbird nagual that seemed to follow her friend everywhere was right behind them. Ana struck a face-framing pose. “Ready to get all dolled up?”
    “Sure. Hey, come here for a sec.” She grabbed Ana’s sleeve and ducked into the glassed in conservatory.
    “What, woman? Damn.”
    She looked up into Ana’s bright green eyes. “I’m pregnant.”
    Ana’s eye’s widened. “Holy shit.”
    Evy nodded. “I know.”
    “Man, you two are fast. What did Troy say?”
    Her eyes grew hot and a little misty. “He’s thrilled. I’ve never seen him so happy.”
    Ana put her arm around her. “Of course not. You guys are gonna have fucking Seer New Breed babies!”
    “Shh.” Evy laughed. “You’re the only one who knows besides Helen. Let’s keep it on the DL. Just for now. I don’t want to take away from James’s night.”
    Ana grinned. “Well, then, let’s go get suited up. We have lots to celebrate.”
     
    Ana knocked on the door to Adriana’s room and smiled to herself. Wow. Evy was pregnant. It felt great to be happy about something so normal. Especially lately. The past few weeks had been one weird supernatural surprise after another. Evy was having offspring and here she had a ghost for a pet for fuck’s sake.
    “Ladies.”
