I did see him. His name was Matthew Kyles. We’d crossed paths before and that didn’t go well. He was a Faery and a dangerous one at that. He steals the souls of innocent women and children by trapping them in his world forever. I didn’t tell April I saw anything because I don’t want her near any snake like that.

As soon as she left I made my way over to him, trying to be as discreet as possible. As I approached him he held out his hand for a handshake, but I wasn’t here for a friendly chat, so I didn’t take his hand.

“What are you doing here Matthew? Last time I saw you, you were in a pub flirting with a bar maid, up south, and she went mysteriously missing the next day.”

Matthew eyed him with an innocent smile on his face.

“No idea what you’re talking about Michael. I’m just here for another. That girl you were just talking to… she was cute. She’s the brightest soul I’ve seen in 4 centuries”

Matthew’s innocent smile then turned into one of the devils.

“You leave her alone Matthew, this is your only warning. Come anywhere near her and I’ll send you back to that messed up realm you came from, for good.”

“You can’t tell me what to do Angel boy. I always get what I want.”

Matthew then started to shimmer and disappeared from where he was standing.

Cursing under my breath and looking around to make sure no one had seen his magical disappearance, I decided to keep an even closer eye on April. Hopefully she’ll get over about the whole ‘I can’t see him’ thing soon. It will be easier to protect her without revealing who I really am. Unfortunately she is now under the eye of Matthew and despite my warnings, I know he’ll come after her.
