Lady Ozera warned her sternly but her eyes gleamed with amusement. From then until the end of the second course of dinner, the conversation was predominantly filled with the royals enquiring about my life outside of the Academy and how I grew to be so strong. They were intrigued about my reason for trying so hard to be so skilled in combat and became remorseful when I mentioned the reason being the death of my parents at Strigoi hands. I told my first outright lie then when I told them that it was at that moment that I was exposed to the existence of vampires and the like.

It was the past clawing its way out — her family’s oath, reborn in secret. Footsteps echoed behind her. Luca’s voice came, low and tired. “You shouldn’t be here.” She turned to him, eyes glowing with cold defiance. “Neither should you. But we both have ghosts to answer to.” He took a slow breath. “What did you find?” She looked back at the crest, her expression unreadable. “Proof that everything we built was built on a lie.” He stepped closer, blood still on his shirt, and for a heartbeat, they stood there — the King and Queen of a crumbling kingdom, caught between love and legacy.

My stepmother stepped forward, her voice low. "Emily, I know this is hard to hear, but-" "Don't," I snapped, eyes blazing. "Don't you dare try to justify this. There's nothing you'd say that is excuse enough." Jake's face crumbled. "Emily, please. Let me make this right. I love you. I've always loved you." I laughed again. "Love? You call this love? You lied to me. You've been screwing her. How can you even say that word?"

My gaze dropped to it. The folder was thick, packed with documents, evidence, secrets, and answers. Whatever was inside had the power to change everything. I looked back at Albert. My voice shook. "What's in there?" His expression hardened. And when he answered, his words sent terror racing through me. "The reason your family has been living a lie for seven years."

"When you spread lies that I was a servant and turned the whole campus against me, did that make you feel dignified? When you threw the bloodstained sheets into my washbasin and tried to force me to wash them, did that make you feel dignified?" Her lips moved, but no words came out. "The real poverty is inside you, not in your bank account. You think the world owes you everything. When you can't have something, you resent the people who do. You hate them and try to destroy them. You think everyone owes you, so you turn the whole world into your enemy. Viola… That's the most pathetic thing about you." Her mouth opened, but she could not speak. Then, she lowered her head, her shoulders shaking
