She reached into the black box, pulling out the snub-nosed revolver she’d hidden under the ledgers all this time. "Final audit," she said, her voice sounding like frost on a windowpane. "Final audit," I echoed. We stepped out into the wind, and the cold punched like a fist. The Sanctuary loomed over us, heavy with secrets and greed, and for a moment, the bond didn't hum with want.

Alana's deceptions, her schemes. were exposed in vivid detail. The council members watched in stunned silence as the scenes played out before them, revealing the depths of Alana's betrayal and the extent of her wicked intentions.

Ethan’s POV – Underground He hit the ground first, back slamming against dirt and bone. Silas landed beside him with a grunt. They were inside an ancient burial chamber roots snaking through the ceiling, moonlight filtering through cracks above. Ethan cursed. “They’re going to use that letter.” Silas stood shakily. “I know.” He crossed to a sealed compartment at the far wall. There, hidden beneath a carved family sigil, lay a rusted chest.
