Summary
Scarl did not imagine himself having a child in his care before his thirtieth summer. His plans with Mirayna were very precise, and they had never involved abetting the murder of an innocent woman and the stealing of her child. He couldn't have a child after Ariel anyway, not with what he now knows about himself.
(Mirayna knows her lover is a dangerous man. She isn't prepared to see it put into practice.)

Summary
“I’ll ask nicely.”
It had seemed like the obvious answer when Zolf was stood in Wilde's makeshift office and far away from the potential ally they were discussing. In this brave new world of constant distrust and wariness, the week of probation followed by a visual inspection had become an understood necessity, and rarely did Zolf encounter someone who displayed more than the usual mild discomfort with the task. To put it plainly, things like modesty don't matter quite so much when facing the ever-present fear that a trusted ally may just turn and kill you in your sleep.
Cel, though. It’s different with Cel.

It doesn't make sense to talk to someone who can't hear him, and Jon knows this.
Still, it's awfully quiet in the safe house.

Summary
What if the Pack of Pixies lived in one building?
A series of short snippets from their lives, featuring: a fashion design student with a secret; the unexpectedly dorky boy who learns the concept of the family; two cousins who, in fear of change, cling to their youth; and ex-military man who plans to set the students up, not knowing that a similar ploy is in work in regards to him and a gorgeous wedding planner/workaholic from the third floor.
