Mag-log inOwen“What the…” Diego sputters out as I slam the door behind us. I’ve brought us into the music room which is empty save for a smattering of instruments.I stare Diego down more intensely than I mean to. “What of Natasha?”My brother seems immediately on his guard. “What of her?”“Did they believe
Owen“Isaiah,” I call from the threshold to the library. The first shelf has been completely redone, and its sisters line the walls in various forms of completion.One of my most trusted guards, the one who befriended Amelia, the one who I struggle to be near for the way he reminds me of her, approa
NatashaI don’t stay at the campfire for long after Carolina and Missy are dragged off to bed by the man I found out is their uncle.I didn’t have the heart to ask where their parents are.“I think I’ll get some sleep,” I say as I stand. I’m surprised when people I’ve just newly met through Carolina

AmeliaI didn’t think much of Owen’s “diplomatic mission” that I’d be tagging along with until he gave me more details at dinner the night before.A meeting with the Sun Warriors was a completely different situation. The last time I saw them, they were attacking us. Granted they might not have attac

Which means I’m running late to bring Amelia to the training grounds.Maybe it’s her at the door, but I hope she’s not milling outside her room without me. I open the door with concern only to fin
