'The way that fae keep them'...do you include the Ringmaster in that? What of the fae from the Summerlands? They're fae too. Likewise, there can be some humans who are as mean, cruel, and spiteful to their lessers as the Portland fae were to you.

[ because that's what this is really about, isn't it. Steven still coping from the actions of the fae in Portland. ]
