The sunrise woke Mina. Surprisingly she was still in the bed, but Teague wasn't there. Chalking it up to a dream, Mina tiptoed back to her room. The clock on her wall read 5:30 am. Woah. It was the earliest Mina had ever risen, but now there was no chance she could get back to bed.

Thankfully Ever was still sound asleep, quietly closing the door, Mina made her way down to the kitchen, feeling peckish.

She was right outside the door when she heard someone whistling and a familiar scent wafted throughout the room.

Opening the door, she almost jumped out of her skin to see Teague, wearing a ridiculous chef's hat, making scrambled eggs. His clothes were different and today he was wearing black, as always.

"Good morning." He sing songed.

"Uh, good morning." She sat down at the table and waited for Teague to join her.

He walked towards her carrying two plates, containing eggs, toast and bacon.

"Are you always up this early?" She asked.

He only chuckled at her. "Most of the time yes. Royals have duties to attend to you know." Mina just shrugged her shoulders.

They ate their meal in peace and quiet and Mina was grateful. She still didn't know how she was going to handle the whole last night thing.

While Mina was lost in thought, Teague placed both of their plates in the sink and returned to the table.

"You know a girl could get used to this." They both chuckled.

"Look, obviously last night was-" Teague cut her off.

"Great."

Mina could feel her face turn pink. She couldn't argue with him though.

"Yes, but, I just don't think you were being genuine. I mean it was late and I was tired and-" He cut her off again.

"Mina, I can assure you everything I said and did, I did because I wanted to and because I love you Mina." He scooted closer to her and held her hand in his.

Now Mina was bright, bright pink. Which only made Teague laugh. She grew agitated at this and became red, which only made him laugh even harder. When he was done dying of laughter, Mina was annoyed.

"I'm glad my agitation makes you laugh so much. You know-" Teague cut her off again but this time by kissing her.

After a moment he pulled away.

"Now do you believe me?" He smirked.

"Fine, I believe you." She was going to kiss him again when he pulled away and clutched his chest in pain.

"What's wrong?" She asked.

"Nothing." He answered obviously lying. How was he supposed to get close to her when his stupid heart was hurting every time he tried to do anything?

Another shock of pain and he couldn't handle it. He had to get out and quick.

"I, uh, I have to go. Now."

"But-" He kissed her cheek before disappearing to the fae plane.

Teague's room

"Jared what the hell is wrong with me?" He asked, laying on his bed, staring at his ceiling.

Well other than you heart, it seems you have come down with a bit of Mina fever.

"Jared, this is serious. How do I stop this from happening?"

I say just keep going until Mina chips at your heart completely.

"Then what happens?' He asked with a hint of fear in his voice.

I have no idea.

Well, that was quick but now how will Mina tell Ever and what about their revenge plan? Review what you guys think will happen next. Three reviews for the next chapter.
