There was no need for him to add his brand new wife to the list. She needed to focus. This man was a villain. He had been the head of a notorious ring of aristocrats that had treated commoners like garbage. She had researched him and his family, she knew all about their crimes. He had only turned everyone in to save his own skin. He wouldn’t trick her. She would watch him. She was sure that he would go back to his old ways, and when that happened she would promptly turn him in. She was sure the king would annul their marriage when that happened.

It was clear everyone had been fixated on Marcel, but at his declaration, all focus was on Celia. All her life, she was the girl with the weakest presence in a room. The one no one noticed, and when they did, she was viewed with pity or disgust. Now she was the mate of a werewolf who killed their Alpha. A werewolf who dominated other packs. A villain, undoubtedly. Hadn’t things just become worse for her? “Move,” Marcel instructed Sheeva, but she didn’t obey. “Move,” he said again, his eyes glowing this time. Sheeva trembled, doing her best to fight against the intimidation that came with Marcel’s unbelievable power.

Charlie stood nearby, his eyes red as if he had just cried. "I was just messing with you. Why did you actually drink it? Maddie, since when did you become so weak?" he asked. The original Maddison was not fragile at all. After all, she was the villainous side character whose job was to frame the female lead before meeting her destined death. The female lead was Cynthia. Just a while back, the original Maddison had tried to stop her from taking the SATs by slipping laxatives into Cynthia's food. However, halfway through, the original Maddison got scared and switched the drugged meal with a normal one.

As she used the dark tweezers to align the blood-red shards of the vase, the contrast made her hands look like they were carved from moonlight. Initially, the apprentices watched the vase. But soon, they were mesmerized by her grace. Avery didn't notice. The moment she touched the relics, the "Mate-Contract," the "Mute" label, and the "Billionaire-turned-Alpha" politics of the Montgomerys vanished. She was back in her element. The task was a brutal mental puzzle, but Avery’s mind categorized the shards by density and fracture-pattern effortlessly. When the final grain of sand hit the bottom of the hourglass, a gasp rippled through the room.

"We watched Vincent grow up. We practically raised him in spirit! He has always been a paragon of respect and propriety! You're projecting!" The live chat spiraled into chaos. [I knew no one would believe her. Who the fuck would?! Dumb bitch deserves this!] [How does it feel to be the most hated woman in the room?] [Am I the only one genuinely worried for Vincent and Stephie? I think their gasps are already weakening…] Jasmine had already broken into tears. She collapsed against the coffin, resting her head and arms on it as she sobbed.

Reaches for her robes. Whatever this is — these fragments, these deaths, this sentence written into her soul before she was born — she will not spend another seventeen years simply enduring it. The clan elders have decided this will be the year she sees the outside world. Her debut. The great revealing. The Hidden Daughter of Vaelith, finally presented to a world that has mostly stopped believing she exists. She pulls her collar straight. Adjusts the silver clasp at her shoulder. Catches her own reflection in the dark window glass — pale and still and, in the absence of careful expression, briefly, terribly tired.

Her skin was flawless, catching the light with a luminous glow that completely erased the memory of her illness, and her dark eyes flashed with an intense, lethal intelligence. Ninety days, Vivienne said, her voice flat and steady as she looked at her own reflection. Look at this mirror, Damian. Do you see a single trace of the woman who lay starving in that municipal clinic? Damian Thorne stepped through the heavy double doors of the suite, his boots silent against the polished hardwood. In his hands, he held a sleek, garment protected piece of wardrobe. He stopped a few feet behind her, his dark eyes locking onto her reflection with an unyielding intensity. The weakness was never an inhere

"From what's left of him?" "From what's left of me." For one unguarded second the villainess of my story looked twenty-seven and tired. "A Voss who turns doesn't get a clean ending. I'll need someone powerful enough to give me one anyway. That's the deal. Information, for a future." "You're asking me to trust the most dangerous liar I've ever met," I said, "on the strength of a sad face by a dead fountain."
