Excerpt
“Beat it, dematerialize!” Bunny incanted, incensed. Nix and Pix disappeared in a puff of sparkling smoke. Two more shrieks sounded over the water.
“Ha!” Bunny said, and snapped her fingers. Sending teasing girls into the lake might be over-kill, but Bunny had learned one thing fast and early while growing up in Little Salem: it was best to show Other-beings that she wasn’t a human to push around. She stepped to return to the campground.
“Lovely trick, from a lovely witch,” a woman said behind her. The rich tone was deep and sultry.
“Beat it,” Bunny said, raising her wand. She turned.
Her incantation died on her lips. A tall faerie stood before her, leaning a forearm on a tree. Her thick, red tresses were dotted with tiny white flowers, the locks gathered and held by one gold ring. Her curvaceous body was clad in a deep green kirtle with a brief bodice, loosely laced over her breasts. The kirtle’s straps had fallen from her broad shoulders and hung, ragged. One draped a gold armband circling a bicep. Old-gold medallions and large, sharp teeth made up the faerie’s heavy girdle, and beneath her skirt’s rough hem, her bare toes poked. The faerie stepped away from the tree.
“I’m Fairer Than,” she said.
“I’m…Bunny.” Fairer Than approached, and Bunny could think of nothing else to say. As the faerie neared, the green irises of her heavy-lidded gaze became evident, and her pouty-lipped mouth curled into a smile.
“Charmed,” she said.
