Excerpt:

“McElva as in the reigning king of the Light Elves?” Dare asks.
I lean back, crossing my arms and tilting my head to the side. “His sister is my mother, actually, not the king himself, why?”
“Well, little álainn, looks like we might have some information for you after all.”
I arch one eyebrow. I had little hope they had anything of use for us. Looks like I was wrong for once.
“Stop with the lovely, would you?” I snap, narrowing my eyes at his knowing smirk. “Let’s have it then. I haven’t got all night, gents, and my whiskey is getting low.”
“Are you aware of who your father is, Ever?” he asks me in a surprisingly gentle tone.
For the love of the goddess! Like he isn’t the first Fae to speculate or be sure that they know who my mysterious father is.
“That would be a negative. Do you know who he is?” I gasp, clutching both hands to my chest, pretending to be hungry for the information and pleading with him to share it with me.
He isn’t fooled. Nor does he look amused. “Sarcasm isn’t becoming, little álainn.” He shakes his head at me. “What would you say if I told you your father is the Goblin King’s favorite advisor, Tore MacDouglas, who is also the son to the previous Goblin King?”
I laugh. “I’d think you’re bat shit crazy!”
The previous Goblin King lost the throne to Teag Fitzpatrick in a duel to the death after he attempted to start a war between the Goblin Kingdom and the Light Elves. If my history lessons were accurate, this happened shortly after the Light Elven Declaration was made. I’m surprised to hear his son was allowed to live. Goblin society is rumored to be cutthroat, and any threats are dealt with swiftly and brutally.
Both Doyle and I are in hysterics at the thought that my uptight mother would break the greatest law and couple with a goblin, let alone have a child with one. A royal goblin at that! I wipe the tears from my eyes, still chuckling, and look at them. They’re not smiling.
Slowly, I straighten back up in my chair. “You’re serious?”
“Does he look like he makes jokes often?” Dax asks, tilting his head toward Dare.
I size him up and snicker. “No.”
