1. The First Summit

MORGANA

The moment he left, I began to ponder what to ask for… What would be beneficial for me? I wanted more than just my freedom, I wanted revenge for my father’s death… I needed a lot more…

I was pacing the bedroom floor when a knock made me look up.

“Enter.”

The door opened and Delta Oliver stood there with a glass of blood, and from what I could smell, it was Kian’s… My heart skipped a beat at that.

“For you, Lady Morgana.” He said politely.

I raised an eyebrow.

Lady? Since when did he address me so kindly?

“Thank you.” I said, taking the glass. “Please close the door after yourself.”

I wasn’t in the mood to entertain anyone.

He left me alone, and I sat down on the bed, staring out the window. What do I ask for?

Him to cut Sage from his life? Oh, as much as that was tempting, I needed to choose something beneficial.

I wanted nothing more to do with him or his beast. I sighed, sipping the blood, when suddenly an idea popped into my head.

I swirled the blood in the glass slowly, a small smirk crossed my lips.

“Perfect.” I murmured.
