I used my last wish to free a djinni. The magical authorities called it theft.
Now DJ and I are hiding out in a mansion she conjured from a half-built house beside the Rio Grande. It was supposed to be my quiet retirement. Instead, I’m falling for an oni with a foot in the bureaucracy, a panther-shifting nagual making herself at home, and a water spirit with holes in her memory who’s decided we’re her people.

Come and take ’em. If you can.
