" The entire crowd bowed their heads. I stood at the highest point of the staircase, looking down at the hundreds kneeling beneath me. From this day forward, Isabella was dead. The woman who survived was Serena Nostra. One month later. I purged three rebellious factions within the family with ruthless efficiency. Within weeks, the underground networks of Europe and North America were firmly in my grasp. Now, whenever people looked at me, there was only fear. And reverence. Meanwhile, Leon threw himself into expansion like a man trying to outrun madness itself. His men said he slept barely two hours a day. Every waking moment was spent seizing territory and swallowing smaller crews whole. Eve

"Wedding gift? What wedding gift?" "Last month, Jeff told me that he was short on money for the renovation of the marital home and wanted me to cover it first. He said he'd pay me back after the wedding, so I transferred the money to him. It was 8,000 dollars in total," Natalie said in a trembling voice. Rosalie's face turned deathly white. "Jeffrey Coleman, give me back that 8,000 dollars right now." Jeffrey kept his head down and didn't move. His voice was barely audible when he muttered, "I can't."

"What are we going to do, Mother?" My hands slowly returned to my side. "This is too sudden to not have been planned, Lex," Ariel replied. "I believe he has ulterior motives for wanting to come. And today too?" "Of course he has ulterior motives. He said here that he is coming for his throne and her." I nearly snickered. Who is this rogue heir? And what exactly does he want from Moorgrave? Ariel continued speaking, her voice low and conspiratorial. "We have to do something about him. We don't know what he's become after all these years."

I lower my scrying stone a little bit to show her the reject dress. "Wait!" Liberty screams, lifting her hand up to the screen. "Is that a real, solid Moonstone Serpent necklace around your neck? Because there is no way in hell a cheap fake stones would look that bright! Under the magic lights, those diamonds are completely blinding my eyes!"

Seeing that I have shifted the conversation back to territory law, he hitches his shoulder, sprawling across the table like a disappointed pup as he answers in a feeble voice, "I will only know the true depth of your wealth once my claws are in the ledgers, Elowen. How am I supposed to answer that riddle now?" I furrow my brows, a flash of irritation breaking through my exhaustion. "The Thorncroft Dominion has recently expanded its borders under tribunal law, meaning millions in gold coin are moving through our outposts. You know better than I do that a single misplaced rune in our trade books can cause a catastrophic collapse of our alliances. Since Caelan put my human head on the chopping

I placed my hand on its surface. And it burned. Fire came out from my palm but it didn’t consume the stone. It awakened it. The throne sang a low, resonant hum that vibrated through the earth. And then, one by one, the mirrors scattered. Except one. The one showing the merged version of me. The true queen. “You are worthy,” the twin whispered. “But not fully yet.” A chest rose from the pool,black iron, sealed with a lock shaped like two serpents biting each other’s tails.

He had led the warriors to a city a thousand miles away to sell dried vegetables, pickles, and other goods before the winter came. He had also sold the special medicine and exchanged countless supplies. We had nearly 500 newborns that winter, and only three weak ones had died. Those who had submitted to the white tiger tribe felt it had been the happiest winter of their lives. They knew it was all thanks to me, their Lady Divinie, and they respected me even more. The goods we sold attracted the greed of other large tribes, as Sean had predicted. However, the white tiger tribe was no longer easy to defeat.

Those three chests had been enough to make Maurice look good. Now, however, there were far more than three chests. Maurice was already greedily eyeing the chests as if they were his. Meanwhile, Camilla's eyes gleamed as she ran to the chests and opened one at random. The items inside sparkled under the sun—they were all precious treasures. She couldn't help but take a huge pearl and balance it on her palm. "This is gorgeous, Mo. Can you give it to me?" "Of course. I'll give you whatever you want, Cami," Maurice said.

The gold coin in the girl’s palm felt like a relic from a sunken civilization. It was heavy, stamped with the heraldic lion of the Thorne family and the scales of the Vance legacy—a physical piece of the myth we had just spent our lives dismantling. In the gray, post-Default light, the gold didn't shine; it looked greasy, a dull yellow weight that had no place in a world where the power grids had breathed their last.

The beast's massive jaws were lined with jagged rows of zinc-plated teeth that clamped tightly around her waist, its internal clockwork grinding with a terrifying, high-speed frequency that began to drag her multi-ply core directly down into a hidden, unmapped layout that didn't belong to any register she had ever seen. ​And standing on the edge of the falling ceiling debris above her head, his spotless obsidian armor covered in the gray ash of the burned library, was Lord Garrett, his severed torso held together by a pulsing web of silver arbiter grease, his hand raised as a massive, fifty-ton steel printing plate stamped with the symbols of the Seventy-Sixth Tier dropped down directly towa
