(Vera POV)

Lucien stepped away from Evelis. Then Sebastian. Silas. One by one. Not surrounding me. Surrounding Ophelia, or should I say, protecting her.

Seraphine looked around. Her palace. Her guards. Her nobles. Her authority.

Cracking in front of her slowly. Then Ophelia whispered something. So quietly I nearly missed it.

“There were others.”

I turned.

“What?”

She looked at me. Her face crumpled.

“Tessa.”

My pulse stopped. “She was there.” Everything inside me sharpened.

“Alive?”

    (Vera POV) Eventually, the others left. And I left with Sebastian and Silas. Silas closed the door and turned towards me. “What?” “You're shaking.” I looked at my hands. Damn… I hadn't noticed. “I'll survive.” Sebastian's expression softened. “That wasn't what he said.” Something inside me cracked. Just a little, but I didn’t let it show on my face. “I know.” Silas approached slowly and looked straight into my eyes like he could stare straight through my soul. “Can I?” I knew what he meant. I nodded. His arms wrapped around me. There wasn’t any heat or anything uncomfortable, just warmth and care. I rested my forehead against his chest. For several seconds, I allowed myself to stop being strong and soak his protective warmth. I stopped myself from planning, surviving, or doing anything. Sebastian came behind me. His hand settled lightly against my back. Three bodies. Two bonds. One exhausted woman and a deep soul connection. “I am scared,” I admitted. Neither ma

    (Vera POV)“The Council has not authorized—”“The contestants entered these Games under Crown law.” Seraphine looked directly at me.“If Vera Nightshade wants her freedom, she will finish what she started.”There it was.. Another trap for me and an opportunity. “No!” Sebastian stepped forward, but I shook my head in no. “I am fine with this.” My words shocked him a bit. All the heads turned towards me like they didn’t expect me to do so. Sebastian stared at my face for a few seconds before mouthing a ‘No’. I know he was worried about me and my well-being, but the thing was my battle, and I had to fight it on my own. “Vera, she wants you inside that forest,” Silas said. Worry and concern were etched on his face, and it seemed like he wanted to tell me something more but stopped himself from doing os. “I know.”“Then perhaps don't voluntarily enter the place where the evil queen wants to harvest your supernatural organs.” He advised. Lucien nodded.“I hate agreeing with him, but th

The information had been real.I stepped towards Ophelia. “How many others?” She closed her eyes. “Six.”“Where?”“I don't know.”Her breathing quickened. “They moved us.”“Where, Ophelia?”“I don't know!”She grabbed her head. “I don't remember!”“It's okay.”“No, it's not!” She suddenly looked towards the windows.“The Blood Moon.”My stomach dropped. “What about it?” Ophelia's eyes filled with terror.“They kept saying

    (Vera POV)Ophelia's fingers tightened around mine.“I can't hear her.”“I know.”“Is she dead?” The question was so small. Elowen's eyes softened.“No.”Ophelia stopped breathing. “What?”“Your body is still showing signs of an active wolf bond.”Hope appeared so quickly it hurt to witness. “You mean she's there?”“I believe so.”“Then why can't I hear her?” Elowen looked at the scars.“Because someone repeatedly interrupted the neurological and magical pathways connecting you.”Ophelia stared at her. “Can you fix it?” That silence answered before Elowen did. Ophelia's hope disappeared.“I don't know.”A tear slipped down her cheek. Elowen continued carefully. “You may recover completely.”“May?”“Or partially.”Another pause. .“And there's a possibility some effects will remain permanent.”Ophelia turned her face away. No sobbing. Nothing. Just silence.I hated it. I wanted her to scream. Break something or atleast Curse.Anything except lie there absorbing the possibility that str

    (Vera POV)“Mostly.”Mostly? Xela became alert. Rafael led me twenty metres into the forest. Then stopped. Something lay behind a fallen tree.A woman, barefoot and devastated. Almost covered in dirt, her nightdress was torn. But the dress looked painfully familiar. Bruises covered her legs. Both arms were marked with punctures. Some old and some fresh. A strange silver scar circled her throat. Her hair had been cut unevenly near her scalp. I couldn't see her face.Then she moved barely but a whimper escaped her lips. I rushed forward. “Hey.”She recoiled violently.“No!”I froze.“I'm not touching you.” She curled into herself.“Please.” Her voice was destroyed. Hoarse and terrified. “Don't take me back.” My blood turned cold. I crouched several feet away.“You're safe.”“No needles.” My heart stopped. Rafael stared at me.“What is she talking about?”I didn't answer.The woman slowly lifted her head. Moonlight touched her face. My breath disappeared.No.Impossible.“Ophelia?”He

    (Vera POV)The gathering wasn't technically a ball. Which meant there were only sixty nobles, live musicians, expensive food and enough champagne to bankrupt a small pack.Royal definitions were strange. I entered with Nyra. Conversations shifted. I felt the attention. Once, that would've made me shrink. Tonight I simply kept walking.Then Sebastian saw me. He stopped speaking mid-sentence.Xela purred. “Oh, that's satisfying.” Silas followed Sebastian's gaze. His glass paused halfway towards his mouth. He lowered it slowly… very slowly. My cheeks warmed. The bonds didn't help. I could feel their emotions, surprise, attraction and something deeper. All of it brushed against me.Silas recovered first. He walked towards me. Sebastian followed.“You look beautiful,” Sebastian said. His simple words did things to my heart. My stupid heart still stumbled.“Thank you.” Silas looked me over.“You look dangerous.”“Better.”“I thought you'd prefer that.”Nyra abruptly disappeared like she
