Thirty days of reports, requests, and relentless progress from the south.
Lucian stood in the council chamber, a stack of parchment in his hands, staring at the latest update with an expression that hovered somewhere between admiration and disbelief.
"He's asking for more timber," Lucian said flatly. "And stone. Apparently Halensh

The courtyard emptied slowly.Alistair had to nearly carry his mother to her horse. She went without resistance, her eyes still fixed on the castle walls, her face carved from something that might have been stone or might have been grief. The riders she had brought fell in behind her, silent, uncertain, their mission ended before it had truly begun.Alistair paused at the gate. He looked back once—at the castle, at the windows, at the place where his brother was sleeping somewhere in the dark.Then he mounted his horse and rode after his mother.The gate closed behind them. The guards relaxed. The night settled back into something almost like peace.

The first blow came without warning.Damian's fist collided with the heavy oak door. Once. Twice. The wood shuddered but held. His knuckles split, blood smearing across the grain, but he didn't feel it."Please, Rowan—"The words died in his throat.His hand flew to his chest, clutching at something invisible, something inside. His breath came in ragged gasps, his vision blurring at the edges. The bond was screaming. Rowan was screaming. He couldn't tell which was worse.He turned to Lucian, his face pale, his eyes wide with something that looked like drowning."Open it."

Lucian walked fast.Too fast.He was not a man who hurried. He had never been a man who hurried. He observed, calculated, moved when the moment was right. He did not run toward uncertainty with his heart in his throat and his mind spinning possibilities he could not control.And yet here he was.His boots struck the stone floor in quick, sharp rhythm. The corridors blurred past. The guards stepped aside without being asked.He was worried about Rowan. That was the truth of it, the sharp edge beneath all his careful reasoning. Rowan was still recovering. Physically, he was better—not healed, never fully healed, but better. His color had returned. His appet

Sereia walked through the corridors of the Vitale castle with the measured stride of a woman who had walked through enemy territory before.She knew where she was going. Not because she had ever been invited into Helena's study. Not because she had ever set foot in this wing of the castle before today.She knew because she had studied the maps. The blueprints. The layouts of every room, every corridor, every possible entrance and exit. She had pored over them in the dark, in the years when the Vitale heir was young and vulnerable and the Cross conspiracy was still taking shape.She had helped plan the assassination that killed Helena Vitale.She had wanted the heir dead.

The study was coming together.Rowan stood back to admire the new arrangement—the desk angled toward the window, the chairs pulled closer to the hearth, the books sorted by color and height and some secret system that only made sense to him. It was warmer now. Brighter. Less like a tomb.Beth was dusting the shelves, her movements practiced, efficient. She hummed as she worked, some tune her daughter had taught her."How old is she now?" Rowan asked.Beth smiled. "Six in the spring. She's already asking for a pony.""Are you going to get her one?""Absolutely not." Beth's voice was firm, but her eyes were soft. "Maybe when she's older. When she can take care of it herself."Rowan grinned. "That's what my mother said. I got the pony anyway.""What happened to it?"Rowan's grin faded, just a little. "It died. When I was fourteen. Old age." He shrugged. "I buried it in the back field. My father helped me dig the grave

The Mercer territory had rebuilt itself with the same fierce efficiency that characterized everything Sereia Mercer touched.The border walls were stronger than before. The fields had been cleared, ready for spring planting. The soldiers had been retrained, reequipped, redeployed. The estate itself gleamed with fresh stone and new timber, the scars of battle carefully erased.Life had returned to normal.Except for the absence at its center.Cassian Mercer stood at the entrance of the estate, watching the road that led to the capital. He had been watching it for two months now, hoping for a messenger, a rider, a sign.Sereia had been patient. Longer than anyone expected. She had thrown her

Sunlight slanted through the high windows of the Vitale estate’s private dining hall—warm, golden… completely at odds with the cold war brewing behind Nathan’s ribs.He stood in the doorway, hair still damp from a bath he barely remembered taking, wrapped in one of Damian’s shirts because the maids

The ride back to the Cross estate was quiet.Nathan rode at the front, his face carved from stone, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. Alessio kept pace beside him, watching without hovering. The rest of the group followed in

Victor Cross read the letter twice before setting it down. His son’s handwriting, once neat and confident, was trembling—like every stroke had been carved out of dread.He leaned back in his chair, fingers steepled beneath his chin. The fire beside him snapped softly, a measured rhythm against the

When Nathan woke again, it wasn’t gentle.His body didn’t stir slowly. His consciousness didn’t drift back like a calm tide.He jerked awake — lungs burning, heart pounding so hard it rattled his ribs. For a moment, he didn’t know where he was. The ground was cold, marble hard beneath his back, his
