Candle flames stretched, thin as needles. Far away, a single violin string quivered, then held, a drawn breath waiting to be spent.

Charlie stepped toward it and felt her skin prickle, the same electric pressure she felt before a storm breaks. "What is that?" she whispered. "A ward," Wren said. "My mother specializes in them." "You didn't mention she's a witch." "She's not." Charlie gave him a look. "Wren, this is witch behavior." "She's... something else."

Do whatever you want. Destroy the world if it makes you happy. “I’ll be right behind you to clean up the mess." At the Gala Venue: Grand London Ballroom Silas White stood at the entrance, wearing a suit that looked too tight as he swelled with pride. Victoria was beside him, dressed in an opulent emerald green gown that still looked "cheap" compared to the aristocratic aura usually present at events like this. "Father, look at all the journalists!" Victoria whispered excitedly. "Tomorrow, our brand will be the talk of Paris and Milan.”

It resonates with power as I stumble over the first few syllables but it’s a song in my heart, it’s tears at the back of my eyes. Memories flow into me as I speak those words and I let them. I don’t think they’re mine though. I see myself dressed in a white dress. The dress has been worked with blue thread and they make stark lines on the milky white fabric. There are whorls on the bodice and stars imprinted into the skirt. The hem reaches the floor, and the sleeves are long.

Felicia was about to jump out of her seat, but her fear of Grace, who was kneeling immediately behind her, kept her from doing so. What she saw was a veiled woman, and she was certain of it because, unlike the others who cloaked themselves after wearing masks, this woman did not cover her head with a cloak.

The veils added an aura of mystique to their actions, their expressions concealed behind the shimmering silver sea silk lace. Joe and Bryan's eyes were transfixed on the veiled princesses as they gracefully proceeded towards the altar. The delicate silver sea silk lace veils added an extra layer of intrigue, obscuring their features and leaving their beauty to the imagination.
