CHARLOTTE

Pain rang through my skull like a cracked bell.

I groaned before I could stop myself, the sound tearing out of my throat as I rolled onto my side and pressed my palm to my burning cheek. My vision swam, the palace stones blurring beneath me, cold seeping through my skin.

“Get up.”

The voice was sharp. Commanding. Cruel in its calm.

I lifted my head slowly, blinking through the sting in my eyes and my heart dropped straight into my stomach.

It was Matilda.

She stood over me with her a

    EMMALAINE I had never been afraid of my own magic before.Fear was for weak witches, for everyone in this pack except me. Fear was for those who begged the Goddess for scraps instead of carving what they needed out of the dark with bare hands.But as I stood before the altar that night, my palms slick with sweat and my pulse pounding too fast, fear curled in my stomach like a living thing.The altar breathed. That was the first thing wrong. Stone was not supposed to breathe.Yet the black slab pulsed faintly beneath my fingers, veins of red light flickering across its surface like slow-moving blood. The runes I had carved weeks ago had shifted, the symbols no longer sitting where I had placed them. They twisted when I wasn’t looking, rearranging themselves into shapes I didn’t recognize.I stepped back sharply, my heel knocking against a bowl of dried herbs. It shattered, the sound echoing too loudly in the hidden chamber.“No,” I whispered. “That’s not what we agreed on.”The air th

    JEFFREY The first thing I felt was pain.Not the normal kind. Not the kind that came from the chains biting into my wrists or the hunger clawing at my stomach. This pain was sharp and sudden, like something had ripped straight through my chest and squeezed my heart without warning.I sucked in a breath and nearly choked.My knees buckled, and the chains jerked violently as my weight dropped against them. Silver burned deeper into my skin, and the smell of scorched flesh filled my nose.“Fuck…” I groaned, pressing my forehead against the stone wall.The dungeon spun.Cold. Dark. Wet.Water dripped from the ceiling in slow, mocking beats. Somewhere far down the corridor, someone screamed. I couldn’t tell if it was real or just another trick of this cursed place.Then it hit me again.Stronger.Hotter.Blood.I tasted it instantly, metallic and warm, flooding my mouth even though my lips were dry and cracked.“Charlotte,” I whispered, my voice breaking.That wasn’t my blood.That was he

    CHARLOTTEI woke up already tired.My nose still burned.I pressed the back of my hand against it as I sat on the edge of the thin mattress in the basement, feeling the dampness soak into my skin. When I pulled my hand away, it was smeared with blood again.“Damn it,” I whispered.Lyra stood by the door, watching me too closely. Her eyes kept flicking from my face to my hand, then back again. She had been doing that since I woke up. Ever since the dream. Ever since the vision.I wiped my nose with the hem of my gown and forced myself to stand.“I’m fine,” I said quickly, even though she hadn’t signed anything yet. “It’s nothing.”Lyra didn’t believe me.She stepped closer and lifted her fingers, signing slowly, carefully.You’re bleeding again.“I said I’m fine,” I repeated, sharper this time. “I just need to work.”That didn’t convince her either.She reached out, hesitating before touching my arm. The moment her fingers brushed my skin, a sharp pulse went through my head. My vision

    CHARLOTTE That night, I didn’t even remember lying down.One moment I was dragging my aching body down the narrow steps into the basement, my arms trembling from hours of scrubbing, hauling, bowing, surviving. The next, darkness swallowed me whole.I didn’t eat. I didn’t even remove my dress.The mattress welcomed me like a grave, damp and thin, but exhaustion wrapped around me tighter than any blanket ever could. My eyelids burned, my muscles screamed, and before my thoughts could scatter into worry I was gone.Straight into the dream.No… not a dream.It felt too real.I stood in the palace courtyard, sunlight blazing overhead, warm against my skin. The air buzzed with voices, cheers, laughter, cries of joy. Banners fluttered from the towers, bright and clean, unmarred by soot or blood.For a heartbeat, I didn’t understand.Then I saw Jeffrey.He stood at the center of it all, no chains on his wrists, no bruises on his face. His shoulders were straight, his eyes clear and blazing w

My vision swam, the palace stones blurring beneath me, cold seeping through my skin.“Get up.”The voice was sharp. Commanding. Cruel in its calm.I lifted my head slowly, blinking through the sting in my eyes and my heart dropped straight into my stomach.It was Matilda.She stood over me with her arms crossed, her posture regal, immaculate, as though she hadn’t just struck me hard enough to send me sprawling to the floor. Her lips curled in disgust, not remorse.“What do you think you’re doing wandering around this side of the palace?” she barked. “This is not your place.”I scrambled to my feet, bowing my head quickly, my hands shaking at my sides. “I’m sorry,” I stammered. “I was just cleaning. I didn’t realize I’d crossed into a restricted area. It won’t happen again.”My voice sounded

    CHARLOTTEI opened the door in a rush, my heart already bracing for any thing that was about to happen next.For a split second, I was certain I would see Emmalaine standing there with that cold, eyes that was filled with wickedness, or maybe it was one of the guards who'd seen me running out of the dungeon and ready to drag me away for daring to breathe without permission. My body tensed, my fingers curling instinctively, preparing for pain.But it wasn’t Emmalaine.It was Lyra.She stood quietly in the narrow hallway, her shoulders drawn in, her eyes darting nervously over my shoulder before settling back on me. In her hands was a folded piece of paper. She lifted it slowly, almost shyly, as if afraid even that small movement might be punished.Can I come in? was written neatly across it.Relief hit me so hard my knees almost buckled.I didn’t answer her. I grabbed her wrist and yanked her inside, slamming the door shut behind us and pressing my back against it as if I could shield
