Underneath Our Masks

Faery AU. Ruby is a faery who is the Seelie Queen’s most trusted adviser, spending much of her time running errands and maintaining her queen’s honor. While on a reckless trip to Earth, Ruby is tortured by humans until a sympathetic one stumbles upon her and frees her. Ruby returns to the Seelie Court convinced she will never see the human, Bela, again; however, barely more than a day later she stumbles into Ruby’s own dangerous world with a favor to ask, and unknowingly captures and warms the faery’s neglected heart. Searching for a way to get Bela back home, Ruby has to protect her from those that would seek to harm her while also making the biggest decision of her existence: going against her own kind or letting Bela perish in the world she once called home.
