Didn\u2019t blink. But her hand tightened on the curved dagger strapped to her hip. It wasn\u2019t one of her usual tools\u2014it was heavier, more ornamental, with savage engravings down the steel. It was designed to look terrifying. And right now, it was doing its job. Ledor\u2019s face paled. \u201cI\u2026 apologize,\u201d he said stiffly, dipping his chin slightly in my direction. \u201cI\u2019m here to request that you both return to the castle.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zander\u2019s arms crossed over his chest, his voice flat. \u201cTo be assassinated?\u201d \u201cWe\u2019ll pass,\u201d I added coldly, stepping closer to the desk. Ledor shook his head. \u201cThat wasn\u2019t my intention. The dragons are demanding a trial.\u201d My heart skipped. He went on, his voice more careful now. \u201cThey claim they can prove Zander\u2019s innocence.<\/p>\n

And technically\u2026 no charges were ever brought against you, Ashlyn.\u201d I exchanged a look with Zander. His expression didn\u2019t change, but his eyes? They flared with something dangerous. Hope. Or fury. Maybe both. The dragons were intervening. Which meant this war between truth and lies was far from over. I let out a guttural sound of disbelief. \u201cNobody gave a damn whether Zander was innocent until the dragons intervened.\u201d I took a step forward, the heat rising in my voice.<\/p>\n

\u201cDid you actually think Hein would let you kill Zander, knowing he\u2019s innocent? You risked the treaty because you want to suck up to Theron.\u201d Major Ledor\u2019s jaw clenched. \u201cI do not care which Rayne wears the crown,\u201d he said, voice cool but firm. \u201cI care about the dragons. And they have never intervened like this in castle politics. Not once. This is unprecedented.\u201d I narrowed my eyes. \u201cDid it ever occur to you that Zander\u2019s birth was preordained?<\/p>\n

Planned, even? That maybe we need him? That the dragons need him?\u201d \u201cWhy?\u201d he asked, skeptical. I didn\u2019t look away. \u201cBecause the answers we need lie in the Fae Sanctuary. And Zander\u2019s power is required to access it.\u201d The major went still, his eyes glancing down as if he were trying to weigh those words against everything he thought he understood.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Fae Sanctuary\u2026\u201d he muttered. \u201cThat\u2019s impossible\u2026\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s not,\u201d I said quietly. \u201cIt\u2019s real. And it holds the key to ending this war.\u201d He was silent for a long beat. Then, slowly, he nodded. \u201cI will guarantee your safety. Stand trial. Allow the dragons to present their proof. We need this stalemate to end. The continent is not safe without the treaty.\u201d I opened my mouth, but Zander\u2019s hand settled gently on my shoulder. I glanced up into his eyes, calm despite the fire I could feel building beneath his skin.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe in the dragons,\u201d he said, voice clear and unshakable. \u201cWe\u2019ll return tomorrow.\u201d He met the major\u2019s gaze without flinching.<\/p>\n

I felt it before I saw the deep thrum of magic like a heartbeat pulsing through the earth, the kind of primal energy that twisted into something more\u2026<\/p>\n

something ancient. Her wings flared wide, ripples of violet flame igniting along the edges, and then her tail lifted, once, twice, jerking as if pulled by an unseen force. Kaelith? But she didn\u2019t answer. Her body arched and shuddered, scales along her spine rippling like water under Stormlight. And then\u2060\u2014 She roared. The sound tore through the air, shaking birds from trees and rattling the bones in my chest. Her tail convulsed, and I watched\u2014helpless, stunned\u2014 as the smooth, deadly striker blade at the end began to twist.<\/p>\n

Bones cracked. I heard them. Kaelith\u2019s in pain. Her tail continued to split clean down the middle, the sound wet and wrong. One half morphed quickly, violently, shifting into the blunt, jagged clubtail\u2014thick, heavy, armored. The other remained slender and sleek, a curved blade gleaming like molten amethyst, unmistakably a striker\u2019s weapon. Both ends twitched and then snapped into place like they belonged there all along.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
