Ellie repeated the word as she walked down the drive. Disappointment sat on one shoulder like an overweight devil, while the angel on the other left her in the lurch. She’d wanted the jewels to be the Kewen, and they weren’t. She suspected Jago had tipped out the bag to check she hadn’t pocketed anything. Great. And the comment about the condoms and being on the pill had been a huge mistake. Akin to sticking a sign on her head saying I’M EASY when she was anything but. She’d made herself sound experienced when she wasn’t. She wasn’t on the pill. It said in the book no human could make a faerie pregnant. “Ellie!” She ignored Jago and kept going. She’d stay until after the garden party and then leave. Without the Kewen? Her father’s disappointed face flashed into her head. She groaned and turned round. Jago came running up, bewilderment written all over his face. “What’s wrong?” The pain in her chest ensured no words would come out without tears.
