I took a jagged breath, focusing on the rhythmic clink of the heavy silver as my brothers and I carved into the massive hazelnut chocolate cake Martha had brought out. It was a Syndicate tradition—the final feast before the crown was passed. Teo, Nic, and I should have been doing this as a unit of four, if the Morettis had a shred of decency left in them. I watched Tatiana, Aienna, and Hria divvy up the slices, their laughter grating against my nerves. My Noir persona was restless, a low-frequency hum of anxiety vibrating in my chest that made me want to push the table over and burn rubber all the way back to the Estate. I knocked back another double of high-end bourbon, hoping to drown out

ZARIA'S POV The grand banquet hall was absolutely beautiful. Huge crystal chandeliers hung from the high, vaulted ceiling, throwing a warm, brilliant light over hundreds of high-ranking wolves and visiting Alphas from the East. The long tables stretching across the room were packed to the brim with massive silver platters of roasted meat, fresh winter fruits, and heavy chalices filled with dark wine. The entire room was a loud, chaotic mix of booming laughter, deep voices, and the heavy, overlapping scents of a dozen different powerful packs. It was an overwhelming display of wealth and power, designed to show the rest of the continent exactly what the northern kingdom was capable of.

The banquet stretches on for hours before we move into the massive heated pavilion erected against the citadel's west wing. The interior is decorated with tall ferns and a glittering nineteenth-century chandelier that casts a golden glow over the long wooden tables.

"Get ready, my Luna. The banquet awaits, and I can't wait for everyone to see you." ******* Together, with my hand in Chester's, we made our way to the banquet. As we walked through the hallways, my mouth parted in awe. The entire pack house was utterly splendid. The hallway was adorned with decorations and the distant hum of chatter from maids and guards heightened the anticipation.

my aunt shrieked. Ignoring her, we slipped through the palace's back entrance, making our way toward the restaurant. The banquet began. Just like in my past life, Reine pulled out my chair with gentlemanly grace, gesturing for me to sit. The table was covered in exquisite dishes, each one hiding its own quiet malice—raw venison dripping with blood, lamb chops heavy with the acrid scent of garlic, finely chopped vervain mixed into the salad, and a goblet of wolfsbane-laced liquor served in a silver chalice.

Tanya asked with a mouth full of cereals. “How many Anderson family do we have in this country?” Alexander asked back and handed tanya a kerchief from the table so she could use it to clean her mouth. “Oh.” “Haven't you ever been to a banquet?” Alexander asked. “I have. But I've never been to Anderson's own. I've only heard stories about it from Samuel about how elegant it is. He also told me that a lot of money is usually spent on the banquet. All the people invited are always high-end people with great connections.

Sunny, who was my bridesmaid and my best friend, called out in excitement, "Lena, it's time! Evan is already waiting for you outside. Come on!" I looked at her, then at myself in the mirror, draped in pure white. Then, my stomach churned violently. That photo was like a key, unlocking the memories I had buried deep. Before my grandmother passed away, she had held my hand tightly, her eyes filled with a strange, unwavering clarity. "Lena, I'm old now, so I can't protect you anymore. You have three deadly trials in your life, each more dangerous than the last. Every one of them could kill you. These three walnuts are the chances I traded half my life for.
