Throne of Glass One Shots

Old habits

"What the actual fuck Lysandra." Aedion cursed.

"You do this every time we meet up with the witches." Aelin chided. 

Rowan sighed. "I don't even know what she's doing."

Meeting with Manon's thirteen was one of the times Lysandra actually bothered to reside in human form. More then that she was back to her old Rifthold self. Full breasts and long black hair, she was a picture of beauty.

The thirteen emerged and Lysandra turned on her charm.

"Hi, lovelys" Lysandra voice was smooth and southern. 

The thirteen ignored her. Well, Kaya and Thea's eyes were litterally glued to her but Asterin was the only one who said, "How goes it, Lys?"

Lysandra smirked. Not the fiendish smirk that Aelin had become accustomed to but the smirk of a courtesan luring in its prey, "Better now."

In Lysandra's entire life she had never been with a witch and she planned on fixing that. She had, otherwise, given up on being a whore and, unless she needed to, never used any of the charm that came with it. This was different though, somehow.

Throughout the entire meeting while everyone was serious and talking business Lysandra and Asterin were flirting or visa versa.

"Where is my second?" Manon sighed near the end of the meeting.

"Sorry, I stole her" Lysandra stood allowing Asterin to be with her cousin.

"Lysandra" Aelin growled.

Lysandra skipped over to be next to Aelin, an exact mirror to Manon and Asterin.

Aelin turned and walked her court out of the room. Lysandra winking over her shoulder at Asterin before the door shut behind them.

"You can stop that now," Aelin sighed, "The witches can't see you."

Lysandra changed into her signature ghost leopard form.

"Anyways," Rowan coughed " My cousins will be visiting next month."

Aelin looked up in alarm "For how long?"

"They'll be staying in Orynth for about a month. Maybe two, depends what happens."

"What are they planning on staying, exactly?" Aelin crossed her arms.

"I believe at an inn not far from the palace."

"What are they here for?" She asked, annoyed that this hadn't been brought up sooner and he was being so vague about it now. 

"They didn't, or rather, wouldn't say. Likely some kind of trading agreement with Wendlyn but I'm not sure."

"They wouldn't tell you?" Aedion blurted, now frustrated that even as king he knew little of his cousins plans. 

Rowan shrugged, "It's to be expected."

"Alright," Aedion said when the others remained silent.

Approximately one month later the court went out to visit Rowan's relatives.

Lysandra entered the room as a ghost leopard but as soon as the fae got an eyeful of her animal form she changed back to human form. Well, almost. She had given herself claws and fangs, they suited her.
