“This is not done,” Port bellows, and for a guy that looks like he just finished puberty, he sure can go purple with outrage. “How dare the First interrupt this tribunal and make such ludicrous threats!”

The stout guys responds by opening the parchment again and reading it word for word.

Nope, definitely didn’t imagine that whole claim my rightful place part.

“You tell the First—”

“Port, sit down before you say something that your whole House will come to regret,” Wella commands, and I’m surprised when Port actually listens.

He looks like he’s chewing glass as he sits his grumpy ass in the chair, but he does it nonetheless. Wella turns to the others.

“Are there any other pressing questions that need to be addressed?” she asks.

The stout dude unrolls his parchment again and reads it. Naree rolls her eyes, and Mote gives an outraged huff. Port gets even more purple but stays quiet. I look to Sabin and find the same confused expression that I know I’m wearing too.

“Fine, we are done with this Sentinel for today,” Wella announces, but the acid in her tone as she does—and the looks on the other tribunal members’ faces—scream that she’s not fucking happy about it.

I glare at the stout invader. If this guy, or whoever sent him, causes the tribunal to hate us even more than it seems they already do, there’s going to be a reckoning.

“Come with me, Vinna of the First,” the guy commands.

“Sure, just give me a minute to get dressed, oh, and figure out who the fuck you are and where you’re trying to take me,” I tell him with a glare and a look that says come the fuck on.

What does he do? He opens the damn parchment up and reads it again.

“Is there someone else here who doesn’t have a broken record for a brain that can tell me what the hell is going on?” I ask, turning to the angry tribunal members.

“Your family and House want to meet you,” Sauriel explains, like it’s all just as simple as that.

The answer feels like a punch to the chest. I turn to Sauriel as the last word leaves his mouth. Sabin’s and Torrez’s heads both snap in his direction, and we all just stare at him in shock.

“Tawv told us who your mother is. Clearly, they have found out too, and…” He gestures to the Sentinel stuck on repeat. “Would you like to meet them?” he asks me.

Panic and excitement flash flood through my veins, and I’m not sure what to say. Yes, I’ll meet them if you promise they’ll be nice to me? No, they can fuck off for leaving my mom to rot with Adriel instead of looking for her? My mouth is dry, and my chest feels heavy. I know I need to say something, but all I can think is…how much is this going to hurt? Can I withstand another cut or another blow from people who should give a fuck, but probably won’t?

My eyes move from Sauriel’s red-gold gaze to Sabin’s forest green one.
