    Ste had just called her yesterday, and now she’d already taken Tessa away. Couldn’t she at leaste back and give everyone a heads–up?

    Instead, she just stole the girl away…

    Ste frowned and looked at Victor. His face was already pitch–ck with anger.

    Abraham nced at her. “Star, are you full?”

    Ste nodded.

    Even if she wasn’t, she had to be–no one could eat with Victor looking like that.

    Abraham gave her a subtle look. “Go change. I’ll take you outter.”

    “Oh. okay.”

    Ste nodded obediently.

    She quickly turned and headed upstairs. For some reason, even though it was Marie who’d taken Tessa, she still felt guilty facing Victor.

    She had just reached the stairs when Victor suddenly called her. “Star.”

    Ste turned. “Victor?”

    Victor said, “Tessa still has a fever.”

    Ste was stunned.

    “What? But…

    Tessa was sick? Then-

    Abraham gave Victor a cold side nce. “She can’t reach Marie. You saw that yourself.”

    Victor’s entire aura was frigid. “Marie will listen to Star.”

    After all, it was Ste’s call that convinced Marie to train Tessa in the first ce.

    In Falvaria, who else would Marie go out of her way for, especially for an outsider?

    Ste was stunned.

    Why did it suddenly feel like if she didn’t ger Tessa back, this wouldn’t end well?

    Wait, hang on-

    Marie agreed to train Tessa, but now Victor was looking at her like she owed him something?

    He was asking her to get Tessa back? On what grounds?

    Ste shot Victor a confused look. Victor said, “I want her back today.”

    Ste was stunned again.

    He really was asking for her?

    Hearing the edge in Victor’s tone, Abraham’s expression immediately turned cold. “Are you threatening

    her?”

    Ss, who had followed Victor in, instantly felt the tension spike in the room.

    Ste felt it too.

    Victor looked at Abraham. “Things areplicated now. Tessa can’t stay with Marie.”

    Ste froze.

    Complicated?

    Wait…

    It really wasplicated. Dan wass

    brother. And Dan was the current head of Ashen Pact.

    He had deceived Marie back then. Tessa’s mother had been the previous head of Ashen Pact.

    Dan and Diana were enemies–and so was Tessa.

    If Marie trained Tessa properly…

    Ste’s mind spun, and in a sh, she sorted through every connection and conflict.

    And came to one conclusion: they were screwed.

    “Victor’s right. We need to find my sister—now.”

    Oh god.

    Marie now knew Dan was the current leader of Ashen Pact. If she took Tessa now…

    She’d train her like a weapon.

    When Ste had been taken away back then, she’d nearly lost half her life. And Tessa? Tessa was even more pampered than she had been.

    In all the years Ste was with Abraham, he’d made sure she stayed healthy–sometimes even had her go brunning /bor do light workouts.

    But Tessa? Back in Rivermount, she had maids at home and a chauffeur outside.

    She had zero physical stamina, None,

    And now? Marie would probably beat ny percent of her life out of her

    Wearing slippers, Ste ran up to Abraham with a tter. “We need to find her. Fast

    Abraham’s face darkened as he saw her run.

    He pulled her into his arms. “Why are you running?”

    “Don’t worry. She knows what she’s doing.”

    Ste and Victor both said at the same time, “No, she doesn’t.”

    Abraham went quiet.

    Ste wrapped her arms around his neck. “She totally loses it when she’s mad.”

    She remembered when she’d been kidnapped. When Marie trained her afterward–was there any sense of restraint? She cried, begged, pleaded… none of it worked!

    Now Marie was definitely going to mold Tessa into the perfect weapon to take down Dan.

    And she’d be even harsher than she had been with Ste.

    Victor’s face darkened even further when he heard that.

    Seeing how worried Ste looked, Abraham held her slender arm. “Alright. I’ll find her.”

    “Hurry.”

    Ste urged him.

    Oh god…

    Why hadn’t she thought this through earlier? Marie hated Dan with every fiber of her being. Tessa was about to be trained into a whole different person.

    Just as she said that, her phone buzzed in her pocket,

    She pulled it out–it was Tessa.

    Ste’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly answered. “Tessa?”

    The moment she picked up-

    Victor, who had been sitting across from her, immediately stood and walked toward her.
