Maya’s smile widens. “I hope he’s generous. I have a price. And I don’t come cheap.”Laughing, I wave to her as I walk away.Cedric approaches me once he realizes that he’s been noticed. I loop my arm through his and lean against him as we walk back to the palace. “I think you were right. The Eastern rebels may have something to do with the kidnappings.”“You asked her about the spot between the fingers?”I nod. “She confirmed it. But why are the rebels kidnapping random people? And what are they doing in the human world?”“We have to talk to Erik, but if they are indeed behind everything, then this situation is even more dangerous than we thought. The whole goal of the Eastern rebels was to topple the kingdoms. I initially came here because we discovered that they were crossing the Veil. It’s easier for them to go undetected in the human world. Our assumption was that they simply wanted to hide from us. But if they came here to start trouble, then it’s a bigger problem than we antici

Her words are carefully chosen, each barb aimed to draw blood.I open my mouth, but Cedric doesn’t give me the chance to speak. “Princess Vivian was always meant to be nothing more than a political prisoner. My intended mate was always Leanna. You are well aware of this. And since when do the noble families interfere in the king’s personal matters? You are crossing the line, Bella Asher. Step back.”Cedric’s voice is icy cold and filled with warning.However, Bella refuses to back down. I begin to wonder if she has any self-preservation skills at all. Harriet once told me that Bella, when angry, will go to any length to get her way. That was a long time ago. I thought that over these past eight years, after losing Cedric’s favor, she would have changed a little bit, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. She is not heeding her king’s command.An older man rushes forward, whispering urgently to her, “This is not the time, Bella. Don’t make a scene.”But Bella shakes him off, her eyes fl

I leave Harriet with my son and retire to our suite. Cedric isn’t back yet. I change out of my dress and into a more casual shirt and pajama pants. After wiping off my makeup, I wash the glitter out of my hair and stretch my arms, feeling tired.It’s quite late now. The ball is probably over.After the excitement of the day, both the Eastern and Northern attendees will be on edge. I walk over to the window, wondering if I will get a glimpse of some of the guests walking around. To my surprise, I don’t see any guests, but I do see two familiar figures: Cassian and Maya. They’re walking together in the direction of the cottages. Maya is leaning against Cassian.I smile. Jerry is going to lose his mind.My smile fades in about two seconds.Why didn’t Maya message me? She was supposed to get the test results today and tell me about them. I try calling her, but she doesn’t answer. I suppose I could wait till tomorrow, but…Sighing, I check the time. I’ll just go talk to her. There is no wa

“What’s wrong with him?”“He’s been like this ever since he saw you,” Harriet tells me sadly. “He refuses to shift back.”“Finn.” I touch his nose, his forehead, forcing him to look at me. “Finn, I want to see your face.”He whimpers again, and Cedric says, “Give him some time. He hasn’t left your side in days.”“What happened to me?”Everything is very hazy right now. My memories are in chunks and bits, all over the place. I need somebody to help me piece them together.“You don’t remember?” Cedric asks cautiously. “Vivian attacked you.”Vivian.Her very name sends a shock to my system. And then the memories start flooding back. The attack. Jerry.“Where’s Jerry?”“He’s fine,” Harriet assures me. “He woke up two days after the attack. You took two weeks, my dear. The royal healers have been working on you around the clock. You nearly died.” She wipes her eyes. “We didn’t know if you would ever wake up. Your injuries were life-threatening, and whatever Vivian gave you, it temporarily

I made arrangements with the witches who worked on Erik’s palace to keep the temperature consistent. They’ve been willing to help us if we pay them handsomely, and I haven’t kept their powers limited to the castle. The witches are also in charge of casting their magic on the farmers’ lands so that they can grow more crops.I am resting, but I’m also working. It helps me forget the sharp grief that often lodges itself in my throat.But as the two-month mark passes, I feel content. The castle’s staff and the commoners who live in the villages have all been thrilled to have me back. It makes me realize that I didn’t see how much they cared about me before. Having a child playing in the castle has given a new life to the place, and the staff is having the time of their lives spoiling Finn.I lean on the balcony railing, looking out. Finn is running around with two children from the village. I have stressed to Cedric that I want my son to have playmates. Two of the artisans who are working
