Chapter 0391
As Eli and | head to the border, | have an idea of what this is. Over the past couple of months, both Cara and Angel have had, mostly vampires but other
supernaturals as well, cto pledge their allegiance to the Guardians of the Realm, as they call us. Word of Angel's imprisonment and the Guardian's defeat of the vampires has spread quickly.
However, when we arrive, | instantly understand why Carlos called them‘ creatures’. | have no idea what these little fairy looking supes are. There are five of them and they are flying around with their little wings. They can’t be more than about a foot tall, if that. They are shining and look like they are lit from within. They have strange, flowing gown-like clothes that look like they were made from plant leaves. Their hair and bodies seem almost opaque, and probably would be if not for the bizarre light shining from them.
“Oh, | knew she’d be more beautiful up close.” One of the two males says in a stage whisper, looking at me.
“Oh, and he is so much bigger this close, isn’t he?” The woman next to him says, as if we can’t hear them speaking about me and Eli.
“Have | mentioned how much | like wolves. They're very...wild.” The other male. says reverently.
| can’t tell if they are speaking to each other, or if they are speaking out loud to themselves. Their voices remindof a human movie | watched one twhere these little people called munchkins lived in Munchkinland. Their voices were higher pitched than a human and these little creatures sound very similar.

“Sir Alpha Eli.” One of the males says and gives quite a grand bow for someone with wings on his back. “My nis Funichio and this is my sister, Fanella. This is Draiden and the twins are Leilani and Lolana.”
“I've seen this one naked, and with what’s hanging between his legs, he’s no Beta.” One of the twins says in another stage whisper that everyone hears.
“Definitely an Alpha.” Her twin responds as they look Carlos up and down like they are seeing him without the clothes he’s wearing.
“Lady Luna Grace. It is an honor to meet you.” Funicsays to me. I’m about to respond when the twins continue their loud discussion of Carlos..
“And the way he makes Lady Beta Amber siiiiiiiing,” she says, in a trilling bird sound, “like songbird when he takes her in the pond...”
“Or when he does that thing...” “Enough!” Carlos says sternly, attempting to end the discussion of his sexual escapades with his mate.
“Oh, do you think that was his Alpha aura? It madetremble.” The twins continue, their voice enraptured, completely disregarding Carlos’s discomfort at the situation.
“| do. It makeswant to agree with Sir Beta Carlos as loudly and frequently as Lady Beta Amber does.” Carlos drops his head, looking at the ground, his jaw clenched. I’m not sure if he wants to strangle them or laugh at them.
“Funichio, Fanella. Did you have something you wanted to speak toabout?” | ask, trying to get this shitshow under control. | can see Eli is about to burst out laughing and the wolves that were patrolling are moving closer, intrigued by these little ones.
“Oh yes. We are the Woodland Sprites of your surrounding woodland. King Ailduin has instructed all of us under his reign to cto a Guardian and pledge our allegiance.”
“Our undying loyalty.” “Our absolute fealty.”
It's hard to keep up with them. It’s almost as if they have one mind working in multiple bodies, completing each other’s sentences.
“Sprites?” Eli asks.
“Yes, Woodland Sprites to be exact. There are other kinds, water sprites, forest sprites...” “Well, that’s what we are isn’t it, forest sprites?” Draiden says
“Yes, except we call ourselves the Woodland Sprites, so we’re better.” Funichio. insists.
“So, you follow King Ailduin’s rule?” | ask, again trying to gain scontrol of this conversation. “Yes.” Fanella says. She hasn’t stopped eyeing Eli like he’s a feast and she’s starving-

“Oh, he’s over all the fae- dwarves, fairies, the good kind; faeries, the bad kind; pixies.”
“Goblins, elves, leprechauns...”
“All of those exist?” Carlos asks.
“Oh yes.” Replies Funichio, flitting closer to me. While Fanella is staring at Eli, Funichas been staring at me.
“You wolves are so big...”
“Soooo big.”
“So. Very. Big.” The twins chin looking at our pack members still in wolf form.
“Yes, you are so big, and we are so very small, that you don’t see us unless we want you to.” Fanella answers Carlos. “Like now.”
“Or we hide so you don’t run us over.”
“Look at that one over there.” One twin points to Alexander who has walked up besidein his wolf form.
“He could run over us any the wants.” Alexander is a flirty wolf and | see the wolf equivalent of a smirk as the twins flit closer to him, openly eyeing him.
