down some of it. They were trying.
    “This place was meant to be terrible , but I think we’ve done a lot with it,” Gavin pointed out. “You should have seen it before we did work to it.”
    “Let’s talk of something more fun,” Sophia insisted. “How did you two meet?”
    Rory blushed and laughed nervously. “You make it sound like we’re a couple.”
    “Aren’t you?” Sophia asked.
    “We’re friends,” Rory said haltingly. It sounded silly even to her. “We’ve been through a lot this week, but before that he was a customer at my mother’s diner.”
    “So this week brought you closer? Some good came of all this already then,” Gavin mused.
    Cross ground his teeth. He was about to say something mean again.
    “I guess we can be thankful for that,” Rory said quickly , and looked at Cross pointedly. “We probably would have never gotten together if it wasn’t for all of this.”
    ***
    This fairy bitch was going to owe him money for dental work when they got out of this place. Rory for God knows what reason had given Sophia and the vampires credit for bringing them together. No! They knew each other for months before any of this happened and he had been asking her out for quite a while too. He was already on the way to getting Rory in bed. His persistence would have paid off if none of this had happened. In fact, it would have been better for him. Once he and Rory had gone out on a date or two his wolf would have claimed her anyway. Then, she wouldn’t be questioning it all like she was now.
    He wanted to rip the smug smile off the fair y's face when she heard that little gem. She was going on and on about how ‘that which doesn’t kill us makes us stronger’ and bullshit sayings like that. Worst of all, Rory was nodding right along with it.
    “Yeah, it helps to see the silver lining in everything,” Rory told her maybe-sister. “It helps me stay calm in even the most stressful situation.”
    “So what do you guys do all day?” Cross asked to change the subject.
    “What?” Gavin had a perpetual idiotic look on his face that served as a warning that he was in fact an idiot. He had to have cheese between his ears. It was safe to bet ‘most trusted advisor’ was code for ‘dude I sleep with most often’. He would have to ask around. Sophia probably changed up her bed mates often since it got so boring around here.
    “What. Do. You. Do?” Cross enunciated each word before taking a small sip of the drink in front of him. It was supposed to be water.
    “I don’t know. What do you do?”
    Rory put her napkin over her mouth to hide her giggle. Cross could only shake his head. “Back home, I sell guns for my pack. We have a little shop and I work there full-time. Rory works as a waitress at the diner. What do you guys do here?”
    “Jobs? You’re talking about jobs?” Gavin laughed hard. “Would you work if you didn’t need to Cross? How many fae do you know who have jobs?”
    “It’s kind of a running joke for our kind, and the vampires of course. Witches and were-creatures act like humans and do human things,” Sophia explained. At least she pretended to be embarrassed by the admission. Gavin couldn’t help but laugh more.
    “It’s ridiculous!” He continued. “You’re a powerful witch and you bring people food for a living?! And you’re a strong and deadly werewolf, but you spend your days sweeping up a gun shop. You other supes are very funny creatures.” 
    “Glad we can bring some light into your life,” Cross said with a smile. He could feel his canine teeth elongating. This dinner was a bad idea. He wouldn’t have agreed if it wasn’t for Rory. This whole thing was just off. It was pretty easy to see why this asshole fae had tried to kill off all the other magical creatures.
    “We prefer to lead a normal life,” Rory said finally, frowning in the fae’s direction. Finally! She had been giving Cross dirty looks all day. Maybe she was starting to see what these
