Proof of guardianship

Ivonne's povCan you prove this to us?" I asked. "Can you honestly prove to us that you aren't just lying to save yourself?"Justin looked at me for a moment, then he nodded. "I can," he said. "Follow me."He led us through corridors I had never been in, into a part of the palace that Hector, when I glanced at him, confirmed with a small shake of his head that he had never seen before either.The architecture changed gradually as we went deeper , newer stone giving way to older, the ceilings lowering, the natural sunlight replaced by a different kind of illumination that seemed to come from the walls themselves, faint and cool and ancient.Justin stopped at a section of wall that looked identical to every other section of wall, pressed his palm flat against a specific stone, and traced a symbol I couldn't follow with his fingers. Something in the wall responded, not loudly, or dramatically, just a deep click and the sense of something valuable unlocking that had been locked for a very

Lady Chelsea's goal

Ivonne's POV:"Someone you trust. Someone close to you right now. That is all I can say. That is the line I can cross without destroying everything my family has built." He looked at me steadily. "I am sorry it took me this long to say it." Justin had said.I pulled the letter from my pocket and held it out toward the group."Chelsea sent this," I said. "She wants to meet privately. Tonight, at a specific location she chose herself." I looked at Justin. "Is that who you're talking about? Is Chelsea the one who has infiltrated my circle?"Justin looked at the letter and then at me, and the expression on his face was the expression of a door closing — not unkindly, but firmly and finally. "I've already said more than I should have," he said. "I'm sorry. That is genuinely where I have to stop.""Justin —""Ivonne." His voice was quiet but immovable. "What I told you about the infiltration, that was already beyond the boundary of what I am permitted to do. If I start naming names, if I s

Vow

Ivonne's povMarcellus was quiet for a moment. "I thought we might discuss the terms —""There are no terms," I said. "You have already received everything you're going to receive from us, a room, a bed, protection, food, and the guarantee that we will not hand you back to the people who tried to kill you. The vow release is not a separate negotiation. It is the beginning of your usefulness, which is the only thing keeping you in this room instead of back in that cell. The only reason we didnt demand for you to break the vow sooner is because Lycan vows are tricky and we needed to make sure you were actually going to be honest and not trying to play us, but make no mistake, now that we are certain that you have zero leverage over us, we will not hesitate to feed you back to your beloved master if you try to do anything funny."Marcellus looked at me for a long moment and Something moved across his face that was not quite the calculation I expected... It was something more like genuine

Meeting the master

Ivonne's POV:The palace gardens were quiet at this hour, the kind of quiet that felt deliberately created rather than natural, the evening air cool against my face as I walked the path Chelsea had specified in her letter.I kept my pace unhurried, my expression neutral, performing the appearance of someone who had come alone and unsuspecting while being acutely aware of every shadow around the perimeter where I knew Hector and the others were positioned.Fifteen feet, we had agreed. Though knowing Hector, it was probably closer to ten.Chelsea was already there when I arrived, standing near the low stone wall at the garden's edge with her arms loosely crossed and her eyes finding me the moment I appeared on the path.She looked different from the last time I had seen her properly. She looked smaller, somehow, and the composed elegance she always carried was replaced by something more fragile underneath it, like a structure that has been holding weight for too long and is beginning t

What the master wants

Ivonne's pov "By the way, thank you for sending her to me; she has been very... useful." He grinned, and I felt hot fury take over my body. "Let her go," I snarled in anger. "In a moment," he said pleasantly. "First... I want you to hear something, because I think you have been operating under a misapprehension about my intentions toward you." He tilted Chelsea's head slightly. "I don't want you dead, Ivonne. I have never wanted you dead. Every time someone in my organisation has moved against you, it has been against my specific instruction, which tells you something about how well I manage my people, but that is a separate problem." He paused. "I want you strong. Completely, fully, uncompromisingly strong. And you are not there yet." "I'm strong enough to kill you if don't leave Chelsea's body now," I said. He just laughed at me. "You are only strong enough to survive little girl," he said. "That is not the same thing as being powerful. You hold back constantly, you pull yo

Our Loss

Ivonne's povThe grief that tore through me in that instant was not something I had words for or control over... it moved through me and outward in every direction at once.It felt like a pain that had turned into something Solid and was now pouring out of me in waves until i engulfed my body, blasted outwards, and slammed against all the Night Devourers caught in its path.Out of nowhere, all the creatures that had been hit by the blast suddenly dissolved without sound, and the garden went quiet.The blast had not hurt my friends or I was kneeling in the middle of it with my hands shaking and Chelsea who was barely breathing on the ground.I wanted to touch her and hold her, but I was in too much shock from what these same hands had done.These hands had hurt an innocent woman, an innocent woman who wanted to do nothing but love Hector and help us.The grief in my heart began to build up again but Hector reached her before I could move.He dropped to his knees and pulled her in his

A change in Ivonne

Ivonne's povHer hand went slack in mine, and she was gone. Chelsea was dead.Hector made a sound that I felt in my own chest like something was fracturing inside him.He pulled her closer, with his face pressed into her hair, his whole body shaking with grief that had nowhere else to go and wasn't trying to find anywhere to stay.I sat beside them in the quiet garden and held Chelsea's hand until it was cold, and the tears ran down my face without pause, and none of us spoke.Eventually I stood.I didn't know how much time had passed. Long enough that the garden had gone completely still, long enough that the sounds of fighting had faded and my friends had gathered at a respectful distance, giving us the only thing they could give us right now which was space and silence.Thorin was among them, standing slightly apart from the others the way he always did, his expression doing something complicated that he wasn't trying very hard to conceal. Sevrin had his arm around Denise, who was

The Cold Inside

Ivonne's POVThe door to Marcellus's room slammed too loudly against the wall when I pushed it open, which I did not apologise for.Marcellus looked up from where he was sitting, and whatever expression he had been wearing when he heard the footsteps in the corridor rearranged itself into something more careful when he saw my face.Good. He should be careful."Ivonne —" Hector said, behind me."Give me a minute," I said, and crossed the room and pulled a chair in front of Marcellus and sat in it so close that he had to lean back slightly. I looked at him and let him look at me, but I didn't say anything for a moment because I was deciding where to start and because the silence was doing useful work on its own."Chelsea is dead," I said finally.Something moved across Marcellus's face that I hadn't expected, not guilt exactly, but something adjacent to it, something that looked almost like grief for a man I had not previously believed was capable of it. "I assumed so," he said quietly.

Who she is becoming

Ivonne's povI stared at him. "What is the right question?""Ask her why she agreed to this," he said simply. "Not why she hates you. Not why she did the specific things she did. Ask her why she agreed to any of it in the first place, and what he gave her in return." He folded his hands in his lap. "The answer will tell you a lot of things the bind prevents me from saying."I sat with that for a moment, turning it over, feeling it connect to other things."Call Leo and Sevrin in," Hector said, to someone at the door. "Marcellus — you're going to describe the facility layout in as much detail as you have. Everything you know about the approach, the interior, the guard rotation, the position of the ritual room." He looked at me. "And you're coming with me.""Hector —""You need to rest," he said, in the voice that wasn't asking. "The baby needs you to rest. Leo and Sevrin can handle the debrief, and I will review everything they gather before we decide anything." He looked at me steadil

Before the Dawn

Ivonne's POVThe dream came the moment I closed my eyes.I knew I was dreaming immediately... There was a particular and familiar quality of the air around me, the way the ground beneath my feet felt like suggestion rather than substance, the silence that was too complete to be real. I had been here before, in this soft and formless space between sleeping and waking where Ivanna had always found me.She was there again now. I saw her across the distance, the ethreal robes catching light that had no source, her back partially turned the way it always was before she turned to face me.Everything was exactly as it had always been, and relief moved through me so quickly it almost hurt — because I needed her right now.I needed to hear her voice and whatever she was trying to tell me, because everything was moving too fast and I was not sure I trusted my own judgment right now, and Ivanna had always known what I needed to hear even when I didn't know how to ask for it."Ivanna," I called.
