Not only to be able to beat her competitors but also to get to know her mother better. What secret was she hiding when she was alive? Did she also have a system or a guide that helped her with such knowledge? Was there a connection that couldn't be spoken about? All these bugged her as she stared blankly at the blueprint. Heaving a long sigh, she took a sip of her steamy, hot coffee, knowing it would be a long night for her. "Alrighty, I'm ready for the next stage," she announced, and the system screen popped up with a book titled.

She had not known much else. Now: she knew what the burning was. She knew how to work with it, how to let it move through her, how to convert it and direct it and understand it as power rather than damage. She knew what it meant to be known by someone completely. She knew what it felt like to build something from the beginning, with people she had not planned to love and loved completely. She knew what it cost to be wrong and to say so. She knew how to open a door and how to hold it open. She knew that progress was not the same as arrival and that arrival was not the same as finished.

I watched her carefully, trying to find the spark that ignited this fury. She stood. “Tell me,” she continued. “How long have you known?” She arched an eyebrow, and before I could respond, she hissed, “Don’t even think of pretending. You’ve known about me all along, haven’t you? Every secret I thought was safe, every damn vulnerability—you knew. And you didn’t tell me.” I pushed to my feet, hoping to tame her before it got wild.

My chest tightened, and my pulse started to race. What did she just say? How did she know who I was? How did she know about Kaden? No one talked about that anymore, well not openly. I hadn’t even told many people in this pack. So how? She leaned back in the chair, still sipping her water slowly, like she was enjoying my reaction, like she wanted me to squirm. Who was she? Who the hell was this girl? I studied her face again. She didn’t look familiar. I didn’t remember ever seeing her before but she clearly knew things about me that she shouldn’t and the way she said not-so-famous mate… it wasn’t just rude. It was personal.

Only a few people knew … and every one of them was either family, or an enemy. And even if she knew … why? Why was she looking for it? What did a dying woman want with a cursed Book buried among dead kings? None of it made sense. None of it. I held her tighter and made a decision. Everything in me wanted to carry her straight out of this valley and run for the healers. The dead pressed at me from every side, and my wolf still cowered from the weight of this place. But I couldn’t leave yet. Not until I had answers.

As the final piece of a picture she had been sitting with for months and had almost fully understood. She arrived home to find him in the living room reading an actual book, which was still rare enough to notice. He looked up when she came in. 'How was it?' he asked. 'Informative,' she said, and sat across from him, and looked at him in the warm evening light, and decided that what she had learned today belonged to her for now. She would know when and whether to share it. She would know when it was necessary or when it had been overtaken by something better.

"He'll come or he won't. Either way the council happens." "He'll come," she said. I looked at her. "You don't know him," I said. "No," she said. "But I know what a man looks like when he's moving toward something even when he doesn't know he's moving yet." She paused. "He sent the book. He wrote the letter. He's sleeping better." She looked at me sideways. "He's moving." I thought about the library at eleven at night. The exhaustion and the anger and the grief of understanding and the not putting the book down.

She left. Dorian followed. Silently. Zayden stayed. Of course he did. I picked up the envelope. My hands Her hands. Steady. I opened it. Read the first line. And everything shifted. Not broke. Reformed. Bigger. Older. Planned. I looked up. “She knew,” I said. Zayden went still. “She knew about us.” “Before everything.” “Before Reeve.” “Before the rejection.” My voice stayed steady. “She planned it.” The words hung between us. “This,” I said. “The seal.” “The bond.” “Step seven.” “All of it.” Silence stretched. “What does she want?” he asked. I looked back at the letter. The next line. The next step. Not mine.

Smirking, she recalled the many lives that she tormented, manipulated, and discarded away to get to where she was now; the woman felt not an ounce of remorse. "No one other than my trusted maid, Linda, knows of methods I used to pave my path, and throughout it all, my thirst for vengeance for the House of Scarlet only grew stronger. But along with that so did my thirst for power, which brings us to the current subject of discussion." The woman strolled back over to the sofa and took a seat.
