Misery barely survived a brutal poisoning that knocked her out cold for 5 days. But the general consensus among the Weres was “she’s not the target.” That’s until she’s kidnapped and thrown in the same cell as Serena, her best friend.

The whole reason why Misery agreed to become a chess piece in her father’s political games was to find Serena who’d been missing for 3 months, 2 weeks and 4 days. Serena was keeping things from Misery but that’s because Misery is the sort of person who doesn’t know how to play political games. It’s ridiculous considering she’s been a pawn her entire life.

Lowe is simply being true to character. When they left the dinner table, they told everyone it’s because the only Vampyre in their midst— his wife, Misery— needs to feed. They’re here on a mission though and that’s just an excuse. But right at the moment they’re about to be caught, he makes her do it.

When Misery confides in her twin brother later about what she did, he’s shocked. “The Vampyres and Weres have been mortal enemies for centuries. How come he allowed that?” She’s warned that feeding makes the parties involved develop feelings. Now Lowe is acting drugged and won’t leave her side.

Roscoe was the alpha of the Weres. He was vile and high handed. “Do what I say or lose your life. Give me all the power.” That was his modus operandi.

He staunchly believed the Weres were a more advanced race than the humans and Vampyres, so he wanted nothing with them. Yet the most number of Roscoe’s people died by his hands than from defending their borders from other species. Lowe had to step in especially as his own family was affected.

Roscoe is deceased now but there’s his mate, some of his seconds and all the young people they’ve poisoned their minds against Lowe. They whisper he’s a traitor for seeking alliances with humans and marrying a Vampyre wife of all things!

The first image you’ll see when you walk into this underground laboratory is a really tall glass cylinder filled to the brim with water. It contains a creature with a lot of hair. So much hair that reaches past its webbed feet and conceals most of its unclad body. On closer inspection, this is a human girl whose teeth and tongue have disintegrated, eyes no longer exist but the lashes above them remain as evidence that they once were. This is Emmaline.

Her memories were wiped and in the years that followed, her birth parents kept her underwater and used her psychokinesis abilities for mass mind control. She’s living in a state of continuous torture, unable to kill herself and wishing for death. But her younger sister, Ella, suddenly comes back into the picture.

There are two guests at the dinner table tonight. Haider Ibrahim and Nazeera, his sister. They’re the children of the Supreme Commander of Asia and are Warner’s childhood friends.

When Warner asks about it, she ignores him but sadly, Kenji doesn’t get the hint and keeps prodding. Nazeera doesn’t waste time to set them straight. More than that, she’s more dangerous than any of them at the table— including Juliet — can ever imagine.
