Bella

I didn't lose consciousness all at once.

At least, I was sure I didn't. My eyelids felt heavy, like someone had filled them with cement.

That, and the fact that noises floated through my consciousness in bits and pieces, the world sliding out from under me and then dragging itself back, over and over, like a crashing wave.

It was really embarrassing, especially since I had been making a very big deal out of arguing with Draven.

I didn't have very long to think about that, because suddenly

    Bella’s POVThe old grounds meant nothing to me, and everything about the way my aunt's face changed when I said it out loud told me it meant considerably more to her."You know it " I said. It was not a question."I know of it." My aunts voice became careful the tone she used whenever a memory cost her more than she was ready to admit. "It is where the organization first started, generations before any of us were born. Before the organization turned into payments and shell companies and quiet coercion the organization was simpler. The organization was a place where the earliest experiments took place back when nobody outside the organization even knew bloodlines, like mine could be tracked all.""How do you know about organization if organization predates your time there?" I asked.Stories. The kind older operatives tell to ones, part warning and part legend until no one really knows which parts are real anymore. My aunts hands had stopped moving in her lap. "I never thought I'd hear

    Draven’s POV"We don't move on this," I said, staring at the photo on Bella's screen like it might change if I looked at it long enough. "Not yet. Not until we know it's real.""It could be a trap " Gordon agreed."Numbers we do not recognize, timing that lines up a little conveniently with everything else the woman has thrown at us tonight.""It could also be what it looks like " Bella said, though I heard caution underneath her hope that carefulness of someone who had been burned enough times in one night to stop trusting good news on sight."Jennifer is smiling in that photo. Actually smiling. That is not something anyone forces convincingly not after what Jennifer has been through.""People can be coached " my aunt said quietly."Threatened into performing the expression someone else needs people to perform.""I have seen it done. I have been the one responsible, for arranging it years ago before I understood what I was actually part of."The admission landed heavy in the room. I

    Bella’s POVDarkness again, and this time I refused to let it feel familiar.She wants panic I said, low and steady pushing the words out before fear could fill the space. We don't give it to her. Not this time."Copy that " Thors voice came from near the door, tight but calm. "No ones panicking. Just breathing loud in the dark like the rest of us."Dravens hand found my shoulder in the black, firm and sure his thumb brushing once along my collarbone—the signal we'd made up weeks ago a wordless check that meant only one thing: still here. I pressed my hand over his in reply sending back the quiet reassurance.A low laugh floated from, down the hallway. Then the woman’s voice followed, smooth and unhurried like she was used to the dark she had so carefully built.You've gotten better at this she said. Composure under pressure. I'll admit I didn't expect that growth from you. Not after watching you at the tournament. Still learning which parts of yourself were even worth trusting.Where

    Draven’s POVFive minutes had never felt longer, watching Bella sit across from a woman capable of unmaking everything I loved with nothing more than patience and a well-timed offer.She is not moving Thor whispered next to me his body tight with tension. Bella she is just sitting there listening.That is what we agreed to I said, though every part of me wanted to step to stand between them even though I had promised to stay back. Five minutes. In view. She is keeping her word.Her word is not worth the breath it takes to speak it Gordon said softly. I did not disagree,. I stayed in my spot anyway because Bella had asked for this because she looked at me with a surety I trusted more than my own fear and taking that trust away, from her would cost something I was not ready to give, not after everything tonight had already taken from us.Frey's absence sat heavy in my chest even now, the memory of him bleeding against the hallway wall back at the compound a reminder of exactly how quick

    Bella’s POV"She's waiting for us." I said it out loud, needing to hear the shape of it in my own voice before I could actually decide what to do with it. That doesn't mean we are wrong about the place. It means she is sure enough about this trap that she wants us to know we are going into it.Or it means we are exactly as easy to guess as she wants us to be " Thor said from the seat jaw tight. "Turn back Draven. This isn't a rescue anymore if she is already, at the door waiting for us.It's still a rescue " I said. "Its just not going to be the rescue we were hoping for."There is an option the operative whispered from the back seat her voice trembling but her reasoning was clear. If confidence is enough to announce herself confidence is also enough to have overestimated us. People who are certain sometimes leave gaps they do not realize are gaps because they have stopped expecting anyone of finding them.Are you saying confidence could be a weakness my aunt asked?I am saying it is

    Bella’s POV Freely given, not taken.The words looped in my head, over and over, while the room around me erupted into a dozen overlapping conversations I could barely follow through the ringing silence that had settled somewhere behind my ears."That's why she's never just taken you," Thor was saying, working through it out loud. "Whatever this ritual requires, force doesn't satisfy it. She needs Bella to choose it.""Or believe she's choosing it," my aunt said grimly. "There's a difference between genuine consent and consent manufactured through enough pressure, enough loss, enough carefully engineered desperation that saying yes starts to feel like the only door left standing.""I don't understand why blood freely given even matters to something like this," Gordon said. "If she's willing to kidnap and threaten and burn her way through half a city to get what she wants, why does the actual final step need to be voluntary at all.""Old magic rarely cares what we'd prefer it to requi

    Bella's POV I have waited patiently for days, waiting for Draven to come and visit me as he promised, but I haven't seen him since then. I was too curious to know the reason he would rather not fulfill his promise. “Today has been the fourth day since I last saw Draven. He promised that he would c

    Bella's POVThe guards refused to let me enter the rogue encampments again. This was going to be the tenth time this evening."The Lord asked you to leave.
