No one dared speak again. That was how powerful his authority was. I had never seen anyone hold an elder in check like that, not anyone in this pack, and yet he had done it.

Damon started to say before Clary cut him off. "Your authority has been transferring the originals for years to keep them away from their mates," Clary said, leaning forward in her chair as the anger started to build at Damon denial, "They think they get to decide for the mixed blood? Many of them have been alive centuries before any of the authority members were even born and will still be alive when they are long gone. Why do they think they have the right to choose for them? To destroy so many lives? They are nothing but the blink of an eye to an immortal" she said, not realizing she had risen to her feet as the anger coursed through her.

The minute the cameras lights turned on, Stan spoke. “Good evening to each one who has turned on the television to learn of their current power in control, it is with reassurance that I state to you all that the dictating Councils and Rogue Luna Sally Gray, Alpha Sam, Luna Beth, Luna Sophy, and their followers have been ended in this day, with this information we have created a new branch of authority that we believe to suit the protection needed to each one of you.” The reporters kept on writing like a typewriter as they gain the information.

It was as if the world had not yet decided whether it was done listening. Sebastian’s hands were around my waist all along but I was the one who was holding him upright until this moment. Blood dripped from my palm finding its way down onto the floor. The blood was bright and undeniably human. And yet, no Alpha dared look at me. Not even one except Lucian. They have felt and witnessed everything. They realized what they had just witnessed wasn't borrowed power or prophecy. What they have seen just now was Authority. I stepped away from Sebastian and I straightened my bones slowly, ignoring the pains that were burning in my veins. I was feeling every bit of the pain.

The split crown symbol stayed on the screen like a wound that refused to close. Everything in the room shifted around it, posture, tone, breathing. Not fear exactly. Recognition. The kind professionals show when a higher predator enters the food chain.

There was always something or someone that would take priority over her own life. After taking a few breaths to calm herself, she asked, “So, I have this…Authority-like thing because—” “Babe, it’s not ‘Authority-like’. What you have is an Authority. Own it.” Xandar said with a large and proud grin.

The one you call Vanity that has abducted thousands of hybrids of cross the world. Experimenting on us, harvesting us, and using us all for your own phone sick and demented uses! Ethos said.

This was its design—not direct assault, but orchestration through others' fears, widening fractures between authority and trust, forcing choices that fed its inevitability. I felt it like a dark caress, seductive and violating, whispering possibilities of unbound power, of ecstasy in shattering chains. “Let me be clear,” I said, fire surging hotter now, coiling along my arms in sensual ribbons that lit the room in violet hues, sigils awakening on my skin—ancient coven marks the academy had forgotten how to read, pulsing with primal hunger. “You do not have the authority to sever what we *chose*. The diad isn't your construct—it's blood and bond, flame and storm entwined eternal. Touch it, an
