Like silk sliding over skin. And there she was. Sienna. Daughter of Beta Anton. Beautiful. Perfect. Poison.

She wore the finest silks, trained with the best, learned all the traditions everything a future Luna needed to know. So why was everything unraveling now? My breath came out sharp and fast. The news kept replaying in my mind like a cruel joke. Sophia… the hidden daughter, the forgotten girl… she was the one fated to Damon?

Sofia’s ghost walked these halls her laughter, her compassion now poisoned by the same blood that ran in my veins. Sub-level three: steel door ajar, incinerators roaring.

Dressed in violet silk, her hair a crown of black curls, her eyes sharper than glass. She spotted Nova instantly. Her smile was cruel. “You’re early,” she said as Nova approached. “I’m always early for endings,” Nova replied. Irena’s gaze flicked to Liam. “You brought your pet.” “And you brought your snake,” Nova said, nodding to the girl beside Irena. Yelena. The secret daughter.

We get to the door of Her Majesty's room right as Venus is leaving "Oh, you're back, who's that?" she asks when she notices Revdea "This is Revdea Ubris, she says she's the daughter of Nyx, and she came here looking for a job because her father died and her uncle was trying to force her into a marriage that she did not want," I say
