DERIC

I should’ve ignored the call. Hell, I should’ve blocked her the moment her name showed up on my phone five times in a row. But here I was, jaw clenched, hands on the wheel, driving toward a rooftop café that Elyra had texted me like some kind of royal command. Her text was short. “We need to talk. Alone.” The kind of message that never led to anything good.

The sun was melting into the horizon when I arrived. She was already there, perched like a damn queen at a corner table, sunglasses on, long legs crossed. She didn’t wave when she saw me, just lifted her chin in that annoying way that said, you’re late.

I sank into the seat across from her and didn’t bother with greetings.

“I’m only here because you wouldn’t stop calling,” I said.

She peeled off her sunglasses slowly. “And you wouldn’t have come otherwise.”

“You think I want to look at you right now?”

Her lips curved. “Good. This isn’t about what either of us want.”

I narrowed my eyes. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

    Deric’s POV The rain was light, barely a drizzle, but enough to cloud the windshield in gentle sheets. I didn’t bother turning on the wipers. Just sat there in the parked car across from Carlton’s building, watching the light above his front door flicker every few seconds. I’d rehearsed what I’d say a hundred times. “I’m sorry,” or maybe, “I understand where you were coming from.” But none of it felt right. Because the truth was, I did understand, but not fully. Slapping me across the face for releasing Elvira? That was personal. Still, I had to be here. Ava would want me to be. And maybe that’s why he called in the first place. When the door finally opened, I blinked the rain from my lashes and straightened. Carlton stood in the doorway with his usual cold detachment. No warmth in his eyes, just a strained formality. The kind that said, Let’s get this over with. “Come in,” he said. No ‘hello.’ No smile. I followed him inside, brushing the water from my jacket as I stepped in

    Jaxon I stood at the far end of my home office, arms crossed over my chest as I stared at the empty fireplace. No flames, no warmth, just cold stone and silence. Talon leaned against the polished table, his eyes avoiding mine. He hadn’t spoken much since I summoned him, and that silence was more damning than any lie. I turned to him slowly. “How long have you known?” He didn’t answer immediately. His fingers drummed a slow rhythm against the wood. “Known what, exactly?” My voice dropped. “Don’t do that. Don’t play semantics with me.” “I have to know what you’re talking about” He said. “About kairo. Both his new business and movements” I replied tone sharp. A pause. A long breath. “I suspected,” he finally said, meeting my gaze. “Didn’t know. Not for sure.” “Suspected what?” I pressed. “That Kairo knew where Callan was.” Talon’s tone was flat, almost careful. “I didn’t want to accuse him without proof.” That wasn’t the question though. I stalked closer, my jaw tightening.

    Elvira After so many thoughts, I decided to approach Kale and talk to him. Even though that might annoy him more. I found him in the courtyard, shirtless, swinging a training blade against an invisible enemy like the enemy was himself. Or maybe it was Jaxon or maybe it was me. I stood by the doorframe, my fingers tight around the doorframe, and watched as his muscles rippled with each motion. Every strike felt like punishment. Every breath sounded like resentment. “Kale,” I called. He didn’t stop. “Kale,” I said again, louder this time. Finally, he paused, just long enough to let the silence scald me. He turned, sweat glistening on his skin, eyes sharp with something wild. There was no sign of emotion there. Just… fury dressed as grief. “You don’t use honorifics again, I see,” he muttered. “I want to talk to you,” I said, stepping forward. “About you nominating yourself.” “You mean the part where I decided not to roll over and not let your little romance story rewrite the or

    Callan’s POV A WEEK AGO… I never wanted to believe it. Not for a second. The text from Kairo blinked on my screen like a nightmare that refused to fade when I woke up. At first, I thought it was some cruel joke. Kairo’s sense of humor was twisted, sure, but this, this was a dagger to the heart, a poison that would damage my veins and made the world tilt beneath me. ‘You’re not who you think you are.’ Those words haunted me. It took me hours to even reply. My fingers hovered over the keyboard like I was about to confess some terrible crime. The message came again, brutal: ‘You were switched at birth. Queen Felen is your real mother.’ I stared at the screen. Blinked, read it again. My breath caught. My heart thundered like a war drum, pounding out a rhythm of betrayal and confusion. How could this be true? Kairo laid it all out in cold detail, like a prosecutor revealing the darkest evidence: ‘Queen Felen had an affair with the king — our father. He told me how my real mother

    Kairo There’s a different kind of silence that comes from someone who knows no one’s looking for them. Brielle hasn’t said a word since the sun went down. She’s curled up on the cot, arms hugging her knees like they’re the last thing keeping her together. Her hair’s tangled, and her lip’s cracked from chewing it too much. Still beautiful, but in a way that makes your chest hurt to look at her. Which is a problem. I’ve never liked problems that come in pretty packages. I place the bowl beside her. Chicken soup. Or at least the closest thing I could scavenge. She doesn’t move. “Eat,” I say. “You need to.” “I’m not hungry.” She’s lying. Again. “Don’t make me spoon-feed you.” Her brows twitch, just barely. Not a smile. But a sign. I sit on the floor beside her, stretching my legs out. My back hits the wall with a quiet thud, and I let the silence stretch until it’s just uncomfortable enough. “You should know,” I murmur, “girls usually talk to me.” Her eyes slide toward mine,
