I'm so glad you enjoyed it! As soon as I read your prompts I knew that I wanted to do a fairy tale (because I love them) and then dithered forever trying to decide which one. I'm not sure that the original story really deserved me mangling it like this, but it was certainly fun to do! :)
The first PI that Jensen's parents hired managed to track him down without much effort, actually. Jensen wasn't trying to cover his tracks, and Silberwald isn't all that bothered with being found at night, since interlopers are easy to deal with. I wouldn't be surprised if the police find them among the bodies when they finally manage to take a head count. Misha has been following Silberwald (or, the fae who run the place) for a long, long time. He's pretty pleased with the modern world, but it's nice to be able to rest after all these years. Too bad Jared wasn't around in the Middle Ages. :P
