That voice… deep, co arse, and gravelly. It was the kind of voice with a texture, one that was impossible to forget. It had been lingering in my mind for the past five years, playing in a loop in my nightmares.

For a moment, I tried to convince myself that I was making it up, because there was no way it was possible to hear that same voice in the present day, here in my

chamber.

What was going on here?

I’d always had a sneaking suspicion that it’d been Margaret who’d wanted me to die in the inferno. She had always disliked me and sought out any reason to keep me away from the royal family.

And yet, there were some factors that didn’t make that possible. Margaret didn’t have the right to instruct soldiers. No one could, in fact, aside from their leader, the Alpha King. Not only that but soldiers who had served in the empire’s military couldn’t be recruited as guards for the royal family. Even though soldiers had the capability, they had seen too much bloodshed and troubled places to be around the family.

So who were the men that had arrived at Rosepetal? And if this man was one of them, what was he doing here now? Had Margaret hired him to go there and force the poison down my throat? And after that, had he assumed life here as a guard despite the strict rules and restrictions that made it impossible?

As my mind considered the possibilities, I took a long deep breath and studied Margaret. I didn’t want to give in to this, not even for a moment, but I didn’t see any other option.

“I’ll go with you,” I said slowly, but then I glanced beyond me. “But only if you promise to leave my son and Erika out of it. They aren’t a part of this.”

“Of course,” Margaret replied with a cold stare and then she turned to the guard and gestured toward him.

As he approached, Finnick burst into tears.
