Melinda’s POV

Five days had passed since I woke up in this strange pack.

The cuts on my body were healing and the claw marks across my back no longer felt like they were on fire every time I moved.

The bruises covering my ribs had faded from deep purple to yellow and the dizziness came less often now.

Physically, I was recovering.

Emotionally? Not even close.

I sat near the large window of my room, staring out at the snow-covered training grounds below.

My hand rested on my stomach.

It seemed t

    CarlFor a moment I couldn't make the pieces fit. Voss, standing there in a stone chamber beneath a besieged mill, composed and untouched, while gunfire still echoed faintly through the walls above us."You," Melinda said, her voice barely above a whisper, Ashley pressed close behind her. "You sent me the report and you told me to be careful, you've been helping us all night.""I told you what you needed to hear, when you needed to hear it," Voss said, his voice as measured as it had been in the council chamber hours ago, as if none of what had happened since then had cost him anything at all."That's not the same thing as helping you, Melinda. Though I understand the confusion.""You were the one who delayed the council session," I said slowly, working it forward even as the shape of it turned my stomach."You gave us time, you showed us the logs proving Melinda's innocence.""I did," Voss agreed. "Every piece of that w

    MelindaShe unfolded the paper slowly, and I caught the edges of it trembling slightly in her hands, the first real crack I'd seen in her composure since we'd stepped into that room."Before I read this," Corinne said, "you should understand something about the man who wrote it. He wasn't afraid of your bloodline the way Aldric is. He spent the last six months of his life trying to convince the council of the opposite. That's why he died.""Then read it," I said. "Please."She smoothed the paper against her palm and began, her voice dropping into something quieter, more careful, like she was handling something fragile enough to shatter if spoken too roughly."'The twins born of the split bloodline are not, as feared, a vessel for catastrophe. They are the fulfillment of a debt this territory has owed for four generations. The original division was never meant to be permanent. It was meant to be a wound, held open deliberately, so that whe

    MelindaFor a moment I couldn't make my mind accept what my eyes were showing me. The silver-haired man, chained and bloodied, sitting inside that mill like he'd been dragged there rather than delivered there, when the last I'd seen of him, council guards had been hauling him away toward custody with his own laughter trailing behind him."That's not possible," I whispered. "He was taken into custody hours ago.""Apparently not for long," Rowan murmured beside me, his eyes narrowing at the scene through the gap in the branches."Or he was never actually contained at all," Kian said grimly. "Corinne could have intercepted the transfer. Council custody isn't as airtight as everyone likes to pretend, especially when the person arranging your extraction has spent thirty years anticipating exactly this scenario."Carl's jaw was tight beside me, his eyes fixed on the window, on Ashley's still form bound to the chair, on the careful, unhurried wa

    MelindaAn hour. That was the only time I knew I needed to make a mark, something that would change the course of everything we had been fighting for ever since. I was never going to rest until I got to the bottom of this, with or without Carl or my brother’s help.I stared at the words until they blurred, until Carl's hand closed gently over mine and the phone disappeared from my grip into his pocket, some quiet decision made between us without either of us saying it aloud… that I couldn't keep looking at that countdown and still think clearly enough to survive it."Aldric," Carl said, turning sharply. "Anything?"Aldric held up a finger, phone pressed to his ear, murmuring low and urgent to whoever had answered. The rest of us stood in that ruined clearing, my daughter still held gently in the guard's arms though nobody seemed inclined to enforce the earlier hostage arrangement anymore, my son's frightened voice still occasionally drifting from

    Melinda For a moment the words didn't fully land, the way bad news sometimes waits a beat before it finds the part of you that's supposed to feel it. "What do you mean she never left," I said. My voice came out steadier than I felt, which was its own small mercy, some old strategist muscle still holding the line even while everything underneath it buckled. "I mean exactly that," Seren said, and I could hear her moving now, footsteps quick against stone somewhere just inside the tower. "She told the council she was coming to find you. She walked out the same door we did. She never made it past the eastern gate." "Then where is she?" Nobody answered, and the silence itself was an answer, the kind that settles into your chest before your mind agrees to accept it. I stepped out from the tree line then, because whatever advantage I'd been holding by staying hidden had just become wort

    CarlFor one full second nobody in that passage moved, and in that second my brain tried to make the resemblance mean something small and manageable… a cousin, a trick of the dim light, some distant relation Melinda had never mentioned because there was too much else to mention first.My brain wanted a small explanation. My gut had already stopped believing in small explanations somewhere around the second time this night had asked me to."Seren," Aldric said, and his voice had gone flat in a way that told me everything I needed to know before she confirmed it. "You were supposed to be an ocean away by now.""I was supposed to do a lot of things," she said. Her voice matched the one still faintly audible through the phone still pressed to my ear, and I realized with a lurch that she'd been standing close enough this whole time to hear both sides of a conversation I'd thought was private."I changed my mind about most of them tonight."
