Mara stands beside me and directs everyone’s gazes to the images being reflected from the fountain’s surface onto the

ceiling. “Heidi used my coin to make her wish. She wanted to be desired above all others. She wanted to be the ultimate Queen. Avery, do you wish for her to have an abrupt fate or a prolonged one?” she asks.

they weren’t her family or rulers. I won’t spare her an ounce of suffering because I won’t ever forgive her. “Make her suffer

and make it good,” Regina and I both growled as my mates held me.

Mara held in a giggle. She waves her hand as she says, “Our Queen has ruled. Heidi, your wish will be granted and you will face and feel the consequences of that wish.”
