Piper's response was simple and somewhat indifferent. “Nothing,” Ember blinked, her head snapping toward her fast. “You’re going to do nothing?” she repeated, incredulous. “What about Elsa? What about saving her? Aren’t you going to find Kris and get the antidote or something?”Piper didn’t slow her pace. Her voice, when she spoke again, was cool. “Find Kris? Sure. I still need to take the bane from him.”Ember frowned. “And Elsa?”“I’m sure she will be fine,” Piper said calmly. “Or better yet, her mate can handle it. He can get the cure for her.”Ember stopped walking. She turned, stepped directly into Piper’s path, and blocked her. Piper halted, raising a brow as she looked her over.“Who are you?” Ember asked slowly, squinting. “And what have you done with the girl who was ready to put herself in danger just to save Elsa?”Piper exhaled and moved past her. “It was never really about Elsa.”Ember followed, quieter now. “Then….?”Piper didn’t hesitate. “My father. I need to know wha

“I want you to tell me the truth, Mum.” Piper’s voice was steady, but only just.She lifted the locket, the thin chain sliding coldly against her fingers as she held it out between them, resting against her chest like the weight she could no longer carry alone.Sage stared at it. Her breath caught so sharply that Piper heard it.Slowly, Piper’s hand rose to the back of her neck, taking off the locket completely. Her heart had begun to pound, loud enough that she was certain her mother could hear it too.“Honey…” Sage said, forcing a smile that didn’t reach her eyes. “What’s going on?”She folded her arms loosely across her chest, a reflex Piper recognized too well. It was the same posture Sage took whenever she was protective, closed off, and defensive.Piper swallowed. “The other day,” she began, her fingers tightening around the locket despite the voice in her head screaming at her to stop. “The old woman who came here. Who was she?”For a moment, Sage went quiet. Then she exhaled a

By the time Piper reached the seats, the afternoon sun was already dipping low, casting long shadows across the stone paths.Students filled the space in clusters, laughter, phones out, backpacks slung low, voices overlapping in careless noise. It should have felt normal, but it didn’t her heart was still racing..She moved through them slowly, the words cause of death: sickness still repeating in her head like a personal mantra she couldn’t silence. The altered file sat in her bag, heavier than it looked to be.Not because of the size but the words inside“Piper.”She turned.Ember was jogging toward her, hair tied up messily, one hand holding her phone, the other gripping her bag strap. Her expression shifted the second she got close enough to see Piper’s face.“Uh-oh, okay,” Ember said immediately. “Something happened.”Piper hesitated, then nodded once. “Records office.”Ember exhaled, as she openedthe juice box in her hand andtook a big sip beforehandingPiper the second one.“Of c

Ember and Piper walked behind Kris, from the bathroom to the vending machine and then to the cafeteria.Kris sat at the small table in the corner, legs crossed, fork in hand, eating slowly, He hummed a little tune and scrolled through his phone like he had all the time in the world.Piper and Ember stood across from him, hands on their hips, glaring. Piper’s fists clenched at her sides. “Kris. Give us the remaining bane.”He paused mid-bite, fork hovering near his mouth. “Can’t you see I’m eating?” he said, sounding bored without lifting his eyes “Really. Must you always interrupt me?”Ember scowled, losing her patience. “We’re not interrupting you, just give us the damn…”“Child of the century,” Kris interrupted, waving a hand. “Yes, yes. I get it. You want the bane. But you see, I’m eating. This is important. You should respect the art of a meal.”Piper exhaled sharply, not in the mood for his theatrics. “You’re not eating for fun, Kris. You already used half the bane, Elsa…she’s…”

Piper's foot caught the edge of the stair and her balance shifted too fast for her to recover.The bag slid off her shoulder, the strap snagged on the bannister, and the sudden weight pulled her sideways.Her hand shot out, missed the rail, and hit the door handle instead. The door swung open hard, Her body reacted before her mind did, breath locking, muscles tightening, heart slamming as she stumbled forward into the room.Sage and Molly looked up in surprise, and Piper froze on the floor like a deer caught in the light.No one moved at first.Piper stood up and straightened, the movement too fast for how hard she had fallen. Her chest rose and fell too fast, making her breath shallow and uneven.The air felt thick. Her eyes moved from Molly’s notebook to the tissue box on the table, to her mother’s red eyes and the tears on her cheek she hadn’t had time to wipe away.Molly cleared her throat first, making Piper hit her heel on the doorframe which cut the skin on it. She let out a sm
