Autumn paused after this first entry. Her confusion over the past few days had grown exponentially, but now she was positively mystified. After what she’d learned during her short time as Vyra’s prisoner, she had assumed Victor had been acting the entire time he’d lived in Arbor Falls. This journal, however, said otherwise.

Eris came to retrieve her breakfast then, and Autumn hurriedly shut the giant Fairy Tale book, pressing it to her chest as she moved back to her bed.

“Enjoy your day of reading,” Eris said with a breezy smile as she carried the tray out of the room.

Autumn was still too bemused to speak, but she flashed the Atrum girl a small smile that felt more like a grimace before taking a deep breath, opening the Fairy Tale book and journal inside it, and continuing to read. The next several entries did prove that Victor was learning everything he could about the last female Oaken. He wrote long-winded prose about every detail he could think of about her: the way she walked, the way she laughed and spoke, her strengths and weaknesses, her overwhelming need to help others, and her love for her brother and her friends.

He scribbled notes that seemed like afterthoughts in the margins of the journal. Random things like, Her middle name is Rose, or slightly deeper things like, She appears to be rather observant, studying me nearly as much as I do her. Though, if Victor’s assignment was to watch both of the Oaken twins, then he had done a poor job of it because there was next to nothing written about Luke, save for a few short notes about his weaknesses and what his Power was.
