They dragged me through the grand halls of the palace. The cold stone beneath my feet only made the dread in my stomach grow heavier. Every step I took echoed in the dimly lit corridors, each one bringing me closer to a fate I wasn't sure I could escape.

I still couldn't understand how this had happened. Where did they even get the idea that I had something to do with the attack? Was it because I was an outsider? Because I had shown up with two children whose powers had suddenly manifested in a way no one could explain?
The moment we reached the courthouse doors, the guards yanked them open, revealing a chamber filled with people. Council members sat in their high, ornate chairs, their expressions unreadable. Nobles and pack leaders filled the rows, murmuring among themselves as they turned their eyes toward me. Some looked curious. Others looked outright hostile.
"Bring the accused forward," one of the council members announced, his voice ringing through the chamber.
The guards shoved me forward until I stood in the center of the room, exposed and vulnerable beneath the weight of so many judging stares.
You stand here accused of treason, endangering the king's life, and possible murder. How do you plead?"
Murder? Is he... no. It can't be. Are they doing this to point a finger at anyone just so they can have someone take the blame for what happened with His Majesty?
My head spun. My fingers clenched into fists at my sides.
This was insane.
I had fought beside him, shielded my children from harm, and nearly died trying to help Titus defeat the rogues. And now, they were accusing me of betraying him?
I swallowed hard, forcing myself to stay calm.
"I plead not guilty," I said again, my voice unwavering despite the fear clawing at my chest.
The courtroom erupted into murmurs, voices overlapping in hushed yet urgent tones. I could feel the weight of their judgment pressing down on me, their distrust as sharp as daggers aimed straight at my heart.
The elder council member leaned forward, his wrinkled face etched with suspicion. "Then explain yourself," he demanded. "You-disappeared for years, vanishing without a trace, and yet the moment you return, an attack is launched against His Majesty." His voice dripped with accusation. "Tell me, Lady Sage, what are the odds of that being a mere coincidence?"
I clenched my fists at my sides, my nails digging into my palms. "Are you saying I orchestrated this?" I challenged, my eyes narrowing. "That I waited all these years, only to return just to plan an ambush against the one person who-" I stopped myself before I said too much.
Titus. The one person who had once meant everything to me.
"Then tell us, Lady Sage," another council member chimed in, his voice sharp and deliberate. "Where have you been all these years?"
My heart pounded against my ribs.
I can't tell them everything. Telling them would put Harper and Cooper in even more danger. Their powers had already begun to manifest, and the last thing I
needed was for these people-these suspicious, power-hungry nobles-to see them as
threats.
