LYRAI didn't hear the knock. I heard the silence right after it.It was the kind of silence that falls over a room when everyone in it stops breathing at once. Sitting on the sofa, where I'd been since dawn with Jaxon's last phone message and a cold cup of ginger tea beside me, I looked up. Ana was standing in the doorway, looking like she'd just seen a ghost."Lyra," she said. "You need to come to the hall.""What is it?""It's..." She stopped, then started again. "Just come."Zeviar was already on his feet. Orion rose a second later, quieter, his hand drifting toward the knife at his belt before he caught himself. We crossed the sitting room together, and with the part of my mind that was still paying attention, I noticed Willow and Mira coming out of the kitchen with their mouths slightly open.In the entrance hall, standing on the mat with a walking stick in one hand and her grey coat buttoned wrong, was Zelia Thorn.She was smaller than I remembered. I'd only seen her once, at t

JAXONOn the second afternoon, Darius started singing again. "Don't," I said, without turning around."I haven't started.""You hummed the first note. I heard it.""That was a hiccup.""It was the opening of that song about the goat.""It's a very good song," Darius said with great dignity. "It has a chorus."Behind him, Tessa made a small, strangled noise that might have been a laugh. Corin walked at the rear with the patience of a man doing community service. "He's been humming it since the dry riverbed," he said. "I've counted forty-one verses.""There are only twelve," Darius said."You repeated the goat.""The goat is the heart of it."I closed my eyes briefly, counted to five, and kept walking.We'd been on the east road for a day and a half. Six scouts, two of Zeviar's wolves, and Darius. He had insisted on carrying the heaviest pack, and so far he'd hauled it with the cheerful stamina of a mule that had been promised snacks. He'd shared them, too, which I resented more than I

LYRAI didn't sleep.I lay fully dressed on top of the covers with the lamp on, staring at a crack in the ceiling and listening to Sky pace. Around three in the morning, she stopped pacing and simply lay down inside me, heavy and quiet. That was her way of telling me she was out of things to argue about."You were harsh," she said at last."I know.""He didn't deserve the leash comment.""I know.""He also wasn't entirely wrong." I pulled a pillow over my face and groaned into it. Sky, I felt, was enjoying herself a little too much.At first light I gave up, washed my face, and opened the door.Zeviar was sitting on the hallway floor with his back against the opposite wall and his head tipped sideways. His shirt was creased, one sleeve rolled up while the other hung loose. His hands rested open on his knees. He had fallen asleep with the stubborn, slightly offended look of a man who had decided to stay awake out of principle and lost.I stood there staring at him for a long moment. Th

ORION Dr. Sera kept us at the hospital for another hour, and during that hour I realized how much grief and exhaustion look alike from the outside.Lyra leaned against the corridor wall and stared at the ward door. No tears. No words. When a nurse handed her a cup of water, she held onto it for ten minutes without taking a single sip."The thread is gone," Dr. Sera said at last, wiping her hands clean. "I pulled out what I could. If there's any left in the tissue, I'll find it, but I doubt it." She looked over at Lyra, her voice softening. "Go home. Get something to eat. I mean it. I'll call if anything comes up.""I'll eat," Lyra replied, sounding like someone agreeing to an audit.By noon we were back at the villa, with the whole household gathered in the long sitting room. Ana had her folders spread across the coffee table. Mira stood over by the window, arms wrapped tight around herself. Jaxon and Darius took opposite ends of the sofa, leaving a careful two feet of cushion betwee
