LYSANDRA“Wh-Who are you?” I asked, still gasping for air as the maid crouched beside me, her arms reaching out to help.“My name is Rose. I work here, Miss,” she said softly, slipping one hand behind my neck for support while the other steadied me by the waist.My gaze flicked to Hera’s unconscious body on the floor. She had been so unnaturally strong, yet a tray had knocked her out cold? That was quite strange.I turned back to Rose, who was now guiding me away. My confusion shifted into suspicion.“I’ve never seen you here before.” I said carefully, studying her. Her skin was smooth, her hands delicate, her scent like wildflowers in bloom. Maids didn’t smell like summer. They smelled like bleach or kitchen smoke.“Maybe because I’m new.” She answered with a light chuckle. But I stopped walking, and planted my feet to the ground. So did she.She looked into my eyes, waiting.“You’re not a maid,” I said, swallowing deeply. “So how about you tell me who the hell you really are before

CALANTHAI was sitting on the edge of my bed while the elder physician ran his usual checks—taking my temperature, inspecting my eyes, drawing a little blood. It was the third day in a row he was doing this, always performing the same set of tests like he was trying to confirm something over and over again.I watched him as he began packing up his tools into his leather case. “What’s going on?” I asked, curiosity rising in my chest. “Is there something wrong with me?”He paused slightly, then gave a soft chuckle. “Oh, nothing to worry about, My Luna,” he said, glancing up at me while still tucking things into his bag. His eyes were sparkling with what looked like joy. A faint smile curled at the corners of his lips. “If anything, it’s good news.”“Good news?” I leaned forward a little, my heart thumping. I moved to the very edge of the bed so I could hear him better. For some reason, I felt nervous.He finally stopped packing, straightened a little, and looked directly into my eyes.

CROSSI had two choices: either go to Nyx and tell her the good news first, or go confront my father about what I’d just found out. That he wasn’t my real dad.I chose the first. The second option felt like stepping into a storm I wasn’t ready for. Especially if what Nyx’s mother had told me was actually true.So as I got back on the road, I dialed Eloise. She answered after a few rings.“Hey,” she said, her voice soft like she had been expecting me. And from her tone, I could already tell that my hunch had been right. Nyx had gone to her. That alone brought a wave of relief over me.“Hey, El,” I began. “Is Nyx with you? I really need to see her.”She didn’t reply right away. Then after a brief pause, she spoke gently.“Cross… she said she can’t see you right now. She’s hurting, Cross. And I think you are too. Maybe some space will help you both heal…”“We’re not half siblings,” I cut in, my eyes focused on the road, one hand gripping the wheel and the other tight around the phone. I

KAIDENI rushed straight to the cell that evening, my heart pounding wildly in my chest. A guard had brought me a message, saying that Calantha wanted to see me. Urgently.I’d been in the middle of an important meeting with Bradley and some of my top soldiers. They were updating me on the progress of our latest investigations. But the moment I heard her name, I didn’t care what anyone was saying. I left everything and everyone behind and headed straight to her.When I arrived at the holding quarters, the guards slowly moved to open the cell door. Their sluggishness annoyed me. Had they been napping? How could they be sleeping when Calantha was inside? Anything could have happened to her!I wanted to call them out right then and there, but I held it in. Calantha came first. I’ll deal with them later.I stepped inside the cell, and the moment she saw me, Calantha stood up from her bed.“Hey…” she began softly, but I was already by her side, scanning her body with frantic eyes, my hands

CROSS“Who is my biological father?” I asked, a small growl vibrating through my chest. “And what did you do to him?”Slade didn’t answer right away. He just stood there, staring at me, his expression slowly morphing from stunned to stone-cold blank.Quietly, he turned fully and began walking toward me, slow steps that made the floor creak under his boots. He stopped just a foot away from me, close enough that I could see the tired lines around his eyes. I clenched my jaw, glaring up at him, my nostrils flaring.His eyes studied mine like he was reading a report. Calm. Calculating. My fists were tight at my sides, knuckles burning white.My anger surged. That was it? That was all he had to say?My lip curled and I scoffed, my voice cracking slightly.“That’s all you’re gonna ask? After lying to me my entire life, that’s all you care about?”He gave a low scoff of his own. My blood turned to fire.“What did you want me to say?” His emotionless, cold eyes met mine. “That I regret it? T
