A Hunger Like No Other
““All hail Queen Emma!” Nïx cheered. “Is your coronation the reason you couldn’t call for five days?”
“Or perhaps it was being hung up on repeatedly the last time I tried?” Emma didn’t mention that two days ago she had called and found Nïx wasn’t lucid. “Besides, I’m serious,” Emma said, shaking her nail polish bottle. The color was I’m Not Really a Waitress red.
“So am I. And who are your people? Hopefully not all the other vampire Valkyries, or you’ll have no one to tax. Or are they the Lykae?...”
“Yep, I’m like queen of the Lykae.” She hopped onto the bed, then stuffed cotton between her toes. “Aren’t you going to congratulate me for fulfilling my destiny?”
