Gianna returned to the pack house quietly, slipping through the side entrance without announcing herself.

She went straight to her room and closed the door, leaning against it as exhaustion settled into her bones.

She didn't tell anyone where she'd been and no one asked.

The message arrived that evening.

A royal courier delivered it directly to Cyrus, who read it in the main hall where everyone could see.

His face transformed as he read the words and then he laughed, loud and triumphant.

    Gianna moved before she'd even consciously decided to, her body responding to instincts that seemed to have awakened fully alongside the surge of power now coursing through her veins. The nearest guard lunged toward her, blade flashing, and she sidestepped him with an ease that felt almost effortless, her hand catching his wrist and twisting sharply enough to send his weapon clattering uselessly to the stone floor before he could even register what had happened."Nolan," she said, her voice carrying a new steadiness, "stay close to me."He didn't question her, moving instantly to fight alongside her rather than in front of her, the two of them falling into a rhythm that felt almost choreographed despite having never fought together in quite this way before. Where Nolan struck with brute strength and years of trained combat experience, Gianna moved with something entirely different, a fluid, instinctive grace that let her anticipate each attack a heartbeat before it came, her reflexes

    Gianna stared at the glowing pearls in disbelief, her heart pounding with a strange mixture of hope and confusion. She had expected, if anything happened at all, to hear Iris's familiar voice threading through her mind. Instead, when the voice finally came, it carried an unfamiliar warmth, softer than Iris's had been, but no less steady. "You are not who I expected to answer," the voice said, gentle amusement coloring the words. "But I suppose that matters little now." "Who are you?" Gianna asked aloud, glancing around instinctively to make sure none of the nearby soldiers had noticed her speaking alone into the darkness. "My name is Wren," the voice said. "I was a friend of Iris, long ago, before either of us passed from the world of the living. She spoke of you often, near the end. I did not expect to ever make use of this connection myself, but circumstances have clearly changed." Gianna felt tears prick unexpectedly at the corners of her eyes at the mention of Iris, grief and

    They moved through the castle with a desperation that bordered on reckless, checking room after room, corridor after corridor, the hours slipping away with agonizing speed as midnight drew steadily closer. The pearl necklace at Gianna's throat pulsed faintly with warmth every so often, Wren's voice threading through her mind with brief, urgent guidance whenever their path grew too uncertain."Downward," Wren said again, her voice carrying a note of strain that hadn't been present before. "She grows fainter the further you go, but the direction remains clear. Keep moving down.""Fainter?" Gianna asked aloud, fear tightening in her chest at the implication."Not from harm," Wren clarified quickly. "The chamber they've taken her to is warded against outside senses. The deeper you travel, the harder it becomes for me to track her clearly. But she's alive. I can promise you that much."Gianna relayed the guidance to Nolan and the others, and they pressed onward, descending through spiralin

    Every sound in the dungeon seemed to fade away entirely, the clash of steel, the frightened cries of the children, even the labored breathing of the wounded, all of it dissolving into a heavy, suffocating silence as the pale-eyed king stepped fully into the flickering torchlight, Luna cradled against his chest with a gentleness that felt obscene given everything he'd done to bring her here.Nolan felt his blood turn to ice, watching the way the king's fingers curled protectively around his daughter's small form, the way his pale eyes softened slightly as he glanced down at her, an expression that on anyone else might have looked like genuine affection."You came," the king said, his voice carrying that same smooth, unhurried quality Gianna remembered from their meeting weeks earlier. "I expected as much. Parents rarely give up so easily, even when the odds are so clearly stacked against them.""Give her to me," Nolan said, his voice low and dangerous, every muscle in his body coiled a

    Guards poured into the dungeon corridor within minutes of the alarm sounding, their heavy boots pounding against stone as they converged from multiple directions at once. Nolan met the first wave head-on, his sword flashing in the dim torchlight as he cut down guard after guard, buying precious time for the others still working to free the frightened children."Move!" Elmund shouted, positioning himself beside Nolan to hold the narrow entrance while Gianna and the other soldiers worked frantically behind them.Gianna set the crying infant down carefully in a corner she hoped was safely out of the path of the fighting, then rushed toward the remaining children still huddled fearfully against the far wall. "We're getting you out of here," she said, forcing her voice to remain steady despite the chaos erupting around them. "I promise you, all of you, we're leaving together."She worked quickly, checking each small wrist and ankle for restraints, finding most of the children secured only

    Nolan surged forward the moment he registered Gianna's warning, his instincts screaming at him to break the cell door down regardless of consequences, his need to reach his daughter overriding every ounce of caution he might otherwise have exercised."Wait," Elmund said sharply, grabbing his arm and holding him back with surprising strength. "This could be a trap, Nolan. Think. Why would they leave her so easily accessible, with no additional guards, no further obstacles? Something about this feels deliberately staged."Nolan's chest heaved with barely restrained fury, torn between the logic of Elmund's caution and the overwhelming need to simply act, to reach through those bars and pull his daughter free from whatever nightmare she'd been dragged into."We can't just stand here," he said, though he made no further move to force the door.Gianna's eyes swept carefully over the cell, searching for anything that might explain the strange, unsettling ease of their discovery. Her gaze fin

    Gianna turned around slowly.Nolan was still standing by the window, his expression unreadable in the firelight."You found him," she said."I did.""Who was it?""A council member named Broderick. He holds a seat in the lower chamber and oversees trade regulations for the outer markets."Gianna fr
