Silas and Diana had left coded signs that she was safe, but he wouldn’t believe it until he saw her with his own eyes. Until she was in his hands, he couldn’t be sure those signals meant anything

at all.

“Getting bored already?” Victor asked.

Since they’d come to Redwood, Tessa had barely gone out. The only time was last night, when he took her out for dinner.

Stuck in the hotel for so long, she had to be restless.

“Bored? Hardly,” Tessa said. “I’m worried about Mom and Marie.”

Day after day, her nerves were on edge. Who could ever be bored under that kind of pressure?

Before they could say more, Lewis knocked on the door and stepped inside. “Victor, that Mr. Dale wants to see you.”

Tessa froze.

Victor lowered his head to look at her, a slow smile tugging at his lips. “What do you wants with me?”

She had been with Victor the whole time, but together he and Marie had been relentless, tearing into the Ashen Pact with her as the excuse.

Victor’s attacks were one thing.

But Marie didn’t know the full story. To her, the Ashen Pact was just an enemy to crush–and she’d been striking harder and harder. It was no wonder Dale was desperate now.

Victor’s smile deepened. “Go to the other room, hm?”

He clearly had no intention of letting her see Dale.

Even with all they had, they still wouldn’t stop until Tessa and her mother were destroyed.
