“My name is Aisling,” she replied, only able to answer one of his questions for now; even though she wasn't sure that's what he was asking.
For the first time Aisling shot a warning glance to Taiga. A simple flicker of yellow eyes across the lithe frame of her lover. She sensed the Fae’s apprehension, understood its origin and would forgive her reaction at a later time, but for now, she needed Taiga to not be so cheeky. If for no other reason than to not distract her half-consenting client.
“This pain. Is this how you feel? How do you keep going like this?” Placing the square of cloth in the middle of the table, she spread her cards in an even line on top of it while she waited for Taiga and the man to end their spat long enough for her to acquire what she wanted. He dropped the jewelry into her hand and with a gasp she dropped them onto the table. Her fingertips tingled and ached as if she had just been shocked, a flood of memories hitting her all at once.
She squeezed her eyes shut, sorting through a lifetime of moments she should not have been privy to. Intimate and gentle. A thousand kisses and a thousand touches. Laughter, and glances, and soft murmurs. When the din in her head faded, her eyes fluttered open and they ached with the effort of adjusting to the mood lighting of the bar. “Agent Hart,” she mumbled, still distracted, fingering the rings on the tabletop. “Your wife has been here,” she explained, neatly stacking up the cards into a single pile. Realizing now, that she wouldn’t need them; she’d seen the woman before. She pushed the tags and their accouterments back in Owen's direction, clearing her throat. Her brow furrowed.
“She comes here a lot. Almost every night.” The cards and their wrappings disappeared back into her bag. “You should sit there,” she points a finger to a booth in a dimly lit corner, bangles jingling up and down her arms. “It has a good energy. I sense...good things.”
