Lorenzo’s hand instantly flew to the holster beneath his jacket but I raised a hand stopping him. I looked at Luke, completely unbothered. I had been hearing his pathetic insults since I was a child. He was a weak spoiled child. He had the legacy, but I had the brains and the brutality.

"Unless there's a blood heir," I said, understanding hitting me like cold water. "Unless there's a blood heir," Sam agreed. "And there is. There's Cora." Camila's hand went to her mouth. "She wants to prove Cora is a Baldore heir. Not to love her. Not even really to see her. To control the

Yes I do know we were in the middle of a war, when next the fighting breaks out, he was going to fight and he will stress the arm during the fight but I do not want to dwell on that thought. “The war is not following the usual rules.” Orel said quietly instead. “When things don’t follow the natural rules laid down, things tend to go astray. I cannot allow them to turn the Waterfall into red by killing everybody living there, that will make the empire to lose hope and that is something I cannot afford to let the empire lose.” “Everything will be alright in the end.” I soothed my husband by resting his head on my heavy chest and running my fingers through his hair, this was a soothing position

"Why would I lie? You are here. Powerless. I have already won." He pulled out a newspaper. Slid it across the desk. I picked it up and read the headline.

The violence. The chaos. Everything I had built was falling apart. "In two weeks," Alexei said. "I will march into Moscow. I will show them you. And I will offer them a choice. Join me. Or die."

My hands curled under her chin and I lifted her face to meet mine. "Wow, your name effectively captures your beauty." I told her. A tinge of pink rushes to her cheek, "Thank you." She says.

My breathing turns uneven, sweat dampening my skin. I look down at the golden gown draped over my body. It appears flawless on my body compared to the memories tearing through my mind. My parents. The image won’t leave.

The sky thundered with each clash, crimson lightning splitting across the clouds. Valen grabbed her by the throat and hurled her into the air. She twisted mid-fall, summoning wings of burning energy that unfurled behind her — made of light and shadow fused with blood. The Blood Empress had risen.

His words haunted me, repeating in the hollow of my skull. Blood decides. Empire. Yours too. I wrapped my arms around myself, rocking slightly, whispering into the dark: I will not be yours. I will not belong to this. But blood is a chain you can’t cut easily. And Matthias was the one tightening it. He came two days later.
