Summary
“I apologize.” The cop finally looked back up at his face, seeming thrilled. “It’s just—it’s been so long. And we finally have you.”
That was a bad word. Not found.
Have.
Stiles wrenched his hand free and took a step back, but before he could even think up a gameplan, he felt a prick in his neck and jerked away, reaching up to slap one hand against it and twisting in the same moment.
One of the others had come up behind him while he hadn’t been paying attention, and his vision began to swim even as his eyes caught sight of the half-empty syringe the guy was holding.

Summary
“Three weeks,” Derek says.
“Still don’t want to,” Stiles says.
“I’ll pay you,” Derek says, and that… that has Stiles interested. Alf’s Antique’s may be a great job, but it’s not a high-paying job, and half of Stiles’s tuition is coming from financial aid, so…
“How much,” Stiles asks, “are we talking here? Because I know your family, dude. And it’ll be kind of awkward after.“
“My family thinks you’re some sort of fucking gift to the world,” Derek seethes, like he’s jealous, “they’ll probably be pissed at me when we break it off, so don’t worry about that. Five hundred bucks.”
“A thousand,” Stiles says, because screw ethics. Also, the Hale family is loaded. Derek can deal.

Summary
'Hecate digs her nails into her palms and fumes silently as Ada crosses over to the door, and turns back before she leaves. She ducks her head and regards Hecate over the top of her spectacles in a way that makes her feel very much like a recalcitrant ten-year old standing in front of her school headmistress.
“Pippa Pentangle is your new Glinda for the next two months,” Ada declares with finality, “and you’re just going to have to deal with it.”’
***
Hecate Hardbroom is a respected theatre actress. Pippa Pentangle is a beloved popstar. Ada is exasperated. Everyone is in ‘Wicked.’ What’s the worst that could happen?

Summary
A tear rolls down Pippa’s cheek and Pippa brushes it away with impatient fingers. “It’s not that I’m not trying,” she whispers.
And Hecate thinks suddenly of her girls. Thinks of how there’s often a student or two, usually around their third year, who will suddenly start to struggle where they hadn’t ever before. Girls who stop coming to class. Or turn up with messy hair and dark eyes. She’s seen it more times than she can count.
“Pippa,” she says softly, and rises, crossing over to sit on the settee beside her. Pippa doesn’t look at her, and Hecate, risking it all, reaches over and takes her hand.
Slowly Pippa’s eyes travel the distance and come up to meet her own.
“I just hoped there was, perhaps, a potion that could fix me,” she whispers and Hecate shakes her head.
“Pippa,” Hecate breathes, squeezing her hand. “You are not broken.”
****
Pippa finds herself struggling. Hecate knows she isn't alone.
