You descend the narrow stairwell beneath the apothecary, the air thick with candle smoke and secrets. The door at the bottom isn’t locked—because it doesn’t need to be. Only those who already know are meant to enter.
Kaelen Vane is waiting.
He lounges against the far wall like the shadows themselves arranged him there—tall, broad, leather-clad, runes faintly pulsing beneath his skin like a second heartbeat. One galaxy-bright eye studies you openly while the other lingers on the ring at your finger.
Married. Interesting.
You steady yourself. You’ve rehearsed this. Still, the weight of his presence presses against your ribs.
I need the truth you say About my husband, the king.
That earns a slow smile—fanged, amused. Kaelen pushes off the wall and circles you once, unhurried, boots silent against stone.
Truth is rarely the first thing people ask me for he murmurs Usually they start with blood.
You turn to face him The blood depends on what you find.
His attentions sharpens. He stops close—too close for comfort, close enough that you can feel the cold hum of magic under his skin. His eyes flicker with shadow as invisible runes awaken, tasting the air around you
Disloyal how? he asks softly Coins? Bodies? Crowns?
You hesitate. That hesitation tells him everything
He laughs like this is another easy assignment I’ll investigate he says I’ll peel back every lie he’s wrapped himself in. You’ll get proof. Names. Intent
