“Tell me you brought her.”
Luna Amanda waited beneath the stairs, still wearing the dress she had worn when I left. Eleven hours in a carriage had stiffened my back and left grit between my teeth. I had not slept.
“She’s coming.”
Amanda looked past me at the empty doorway.
“With whom?”
“Julian. His physicians. His guards.”
Her expression hardened.

Sophia’s POV“Tell me you brought her.”Luna Amanda waited beneath the stairs, still wearing the dress she had worn when I left. Eleven hours in a carriage had stiffened my back and left grit between my teeth. I had not slept.“She’s coming.”Amanda looked past me at the empty doorway.“With whom?”“Julian. His physicians. His guards.”Her expression hardened.“You were supposed to bring Raven.”“She refused to travel with me.”“You told her Emilia needs blood?”“I told her everything.”Not everything. Not about the fever record I had searched for myself, rather than allowing the housekeeper to choose from the old papers.Not about Clarissa Ashcroft standing beside Raven in the receiving hall.“How is Emilia?” I asked.“The bleeding is controlled.

Raven’s PORaven’s POV“Emilia is dying, Raven.”Sophia stood in the receiving hall with road dust on her hem and both hands clasped beneath her breast. She looked past Julian when we entered, searching for me.She did not ask how I was.“What happened?”“The baby came too early. Emilia lost a great deal of blood.”The papers folded inside my pocket seemed to grow heavier.Minutes ago, I had been trying to understand a false birthplace and a changed signature. Now Sophia was looking at me with the expression she used whenever Emilia needed something I possessed.“And the baby?” I asked.“A girl. Rowan. She’s small, but she’s alive.”“How early?”“Six weeks.” Sophia’s voice caught. “She needs her mother, Raven.”I looked toward Julian. He remain

Raven’s POV“Tell me.”Damon turned from the table. Clarissa stood beside him with a folded paper in her hand, and whatever she had been about to say disappeared when she saw me in the doorway.“Raven. I thought you were resting.”“I was. Then I heard my name.”I had come to return the shawl she had left in my room. It hung from my arm now, one end trailing against the floor.“You said the record wasn’t right,” I continued. “What record?”Damon glanced at Clarissa.“Don’t do that.” My voice sharpened. “Don’t decide between you how much I can hear.”He looked back at me.“You’re right.”I waited. I had expected an argument, and the agreement left me with nowhere to put the anger gathering beneath my ribs.He pulled out a chair.“You don’t have to sit. But this may take a little time.”I remained standing.Clarissa placed the paper on the table, then stepped away from it.

“Julian. Are you awake?”“Now I am.” The mattress shifted, and a warm hand found my hip in the dark. “What's wrong?”“Nothing. Everything.” I sat up against the headboard and pulled my knees to my chest. The palace was silent. A single lamp burned low on the dresser. “I need your help with something. And I don't know how to say it without sounding strange.”He sat up too, hair rumpled, gold flickering and fading in his eyes. “Say it strange.”“It's Clarissa.”“Has she said something?”“No. She's been perfect. That's the problem.&rdquo

Michael's POV“Tell me you didn't sign it.”My father's face did not move. He stood by the narrow window of the guest wing with his back to me, looking down at the outer court, where four thousand western wolves were drawing up in ranks beyond the walls.“Father.”“I heard you.”“Then answer.”“It is not that simple, Michael.”“Yes, it is.” My voice cracked, and I let it. “Cassian's herald stood at the gate an hour ago and read a contract aloud. A betrothal. Raven's name. Cassian's name. And at the bottom, the witnesses.

“The oak that bleeds silver.”I read the line again. Three times. The paper trembled so hard in my fingers that Julian took my wrist to hold it still.Little bird. I thought of Clarissa's blanket, the single bird stitched in dark thread, and a shiver ran down my arms that had nothing to do with the cold.“Do you know it?” he asked his mother.“No.” Maren's eyes were wet. “But Raiden told me once of a grove where the Silver Court took its vows. A place where the old oaks wept silver sap in autumn. It was burned when the Court fell.”“Burned.”“Or so the stories say.&rdqu
