Like had been born and raised in Vermont, lie resented the new monarchi.

In his eyes, the rightful successor to the throne was Jericho Kane

no one else deserved that honor after the old king's downfall.

Lake's dislike for the current ruler only grew into seething content.

Standing tall beneath the trees, Lake scowled at Kelly, Jetting hering to him in desperation.

In one swift, practiced motion, she drove a short knife into the back of his neck. For an instant, time hung suspended. Luke's eyes v went wide with disbelief. He stumbled, pushing Kelly away.

She was flung across the clearing, her body colliding with a tree nearly five meters off.

"If only... I could see Alex one last time."

Her eyes fluttered closed, her body succumbing to the searing drug coursing through her veins.

Just when she thought it would swallow her whole, a cool rush of relief began spreading through her hands, up her arms, and into her head.
