The coronation and the celebration afterward exhausted me. I sat by myself. Sumac and Roland had not been able to return from wherever they were honeymooning to see me crowned. I was surrounded by Fae that I knew by sight more than by name.

That would have to change, I knew. I would have to learn who was an ally and who would be most likely to be drawn into intrigue. I had to show no weakness and keep my eyes open. I was suddenly the political center of the Fae universe.

I’d never felt more lonely in my entire life.

I kept a slight smile on my face throughout the banquet, though I had little appetite for food or drink. Behind my smile, though, I was screaming. I kept pinching myself, until my arm was black and blue, praying that this was all just a bad dream.

I’d never wanted to be Seraphim. I had never been comfortable being the Seraphine.

But here I was.

Trapped.

No one from my family had come to see me crowned. I had hoped to see one friendly face, somewhere out there. But I had searched in vain. No one from my mortal side had come. Instead I was crowned, surrounded by people that I knew didn’t care for me.

I’d be lucky if I was assassinated within a week, I thought desperately to myself.

Some of my panic must have been showing on my face. Vespera leaned over, her grip tight on my shoulder.

“I will protect you,” she vowed. “You have to trust me.”

“I do,” I said softly.
