“It’s… attentive.” Damien grimaced. “That’s not reassuring.” A soft knock sounded at the door. Phoenix stepped inside without waiting for an answer. Her expression was neutral, but her eyes lingered on Damien, then on me, like she was measuring something invisible. “He confronted you,” she said. “Yes.” “And you refused him.” “Yes.” A flicker of approval crossed her face. “Good.” Damien crossed his arms. “You sound relieved.” “I am,” Phoenix replied. “Control would have destabilized the lock faster than desire ever could.”

Hella's joints popped as she sank beside me. “You have Phoenix blood and awakened it by being roasted I'm thinking,” she blurted with a toothy grin. Dumbfounded, I just stared at her.

But that life was behind her—forever. “Take care.” When she looked up again, only a rush of wind greeted her. They were gone. Lovett smiled softly to herself and walked back into the bakery. ---- Unknown City, U.S.A The inner sanctum of The Phoenix was cloaked in darkness, lit only by a single lamp. Shadows hugged the walls. At the center of the room, a man lounged in his chair, one leg crossed over the other, fingers tapping lazily against the armrest. His face was half-hidden, a faint smile playing on his lips.

she asked. She thought they would reappear at the wiz palace why were they here then? “I told you there’s an array. It’s invisible.” Phoenix took out a jade plaque and raised it upwards.

After entering the door, I took out ground frost pills that are dense in cold energy. "The effects of ground frost pills shouldn't be worse than freezing pills.
