01:27whispers rippled through the crowd i stood there emptied dan handed lord earl's half-denned blood
01:33bastard passed over for a human girl with no clan no blood nothing these idiots i told them to save
01:41you at
01:42least one shard i looked at the man i'd grown up with do you know what tonight means the white
01:51dragon
01:51shard wasn't decoration it was a marriage declaration between clans a thousand-year-old ryle without it
02:00i had nothing no shelter no choice no way out of the match lady earl had already arranged for me
02:07in
02:07the eastern territory lorenzo was my only option no other man here would choose a half-denned blood
02:14bastard and he'd just chosen someone else 18 years he didn't answer behind him mia was smiling
02:23the white shard still perfect in her hands
02:35guilt flickered across lorenzo's face he sent mia away you're used to these events elena but she
02:43isn't this is her only moment to shine just do me this one favor he leaned down his expression almost
02:52boyish you can have your way any other day why does it have to be tonight i said nothing he
02:59cleared
02:59his throat today's her graduation after tonight i can't sponsor her anymore i promised her one
03:07unforgettable memory unforgettable for me too but it was already too late lorenzo do you understand what
03:14the gathering means mia came back before i could finish elena her voice was soft careful did i ruin
03:21everything please don't blame lorenzo i was the one who begged him to lorenzo saw her shrinking back
03:27his expression darkened toward me enough elena it's just a shard i'll get you another one
03:36he dug into his jacket pocket pulled out a small red shard pushed it into my hand
03:43red suits you better anyway a white shard isn't worth making a scene over this isn't like you
03:51the moment the red shard touched my palm it cracked the stone had split clean in two
03:58right down the middle just my hand i closed my fingers around the broken places
04:05the red shard meant someone you didn't claim i knew the shard would shatter if one's pure blood
04:11refused to admit it but i was nothing more than a half-breed i didn't know what that meant yet
04:18laughter rippled through the room a half-blood bootlicker thinking she could marry the rossy heir
04:25didn't you hear him say noble in his heart even a human ranks higher than her lorenzo silenced the
04:33woman with one look but the words had already landed elena i'm sorry you've always had everything
04:41i just wanted one night to feel special everything i stared at her i'm a bastard mia half-blood do
04:51you
04:51have any idea how the marati clan treats me the plate slipped from her hands landed on her shoe
04:56her eyes filled with tears it's already done let her enjoy tonight
05:04come on let's get you cleaned up
05:09you can head home if you want i didn't have one the moment lorenzo left my side someone moved in
05:15antonio ricci a reckless heir from a rival clan
05:18he stepped close and breathed in slowly you smell good elena moratti
05:25without lorenzo beside me i didn't even get basic respect lorenzo told me to bring you a shard
05:32i didn't bother i told you before stop chasing him and try me instead you never listened
05:40how does it feel now humiliating isn't it i turned
05:46stared at this man who barely reached my shoulder lorenzo had handed him that task
05:52knowing full well antonio had been harassing me for months my fists tightened another betrayal
05:58all i'd asked for was three years three years to build enough power to get out from under the
06:03reddy clan's grip but lady earl wanted me gone she wouldn't give me room to breathe elena
06:12without that pretty face you'd be nothing just a half blood i could do whatever i wanted with
06:18you think the rossi clan will protect you forever his grip tightened lorenzo was back
06:24he knocked the hand away didn't i warn you don't touch what's mine yours you just picked the human
06:30girl what do you need elena for that's none of your business antonio spat and walked away
06:37lorenzo spun me around to face him he touched you and you didn't fight back
06:42wasn't this your idea listen i can protect you at events like this but that doesn't mean i have to
06:48stand next to you every second does it but you knew what the gathering meant mia appeared again
06:54lorenzo could i get some champagne one's cold and stubborn the other's bright and warm lorenzo's
07:02choice was easy of course tonight you're the star whatever you want he glanced back at me we'll talk
07:10tomorrow i'll come by your place tomorrow i smiled coldly tomorrow you'll have to come to the eastern
07:17territory to find me lorenzo left to greet the other clan heirs mia walked back to me holding a glass
07:26of wine the timid scholarship girl was gone in her place stood someone who tasted power you have
07:33everything elena why do you need to take this one moment from me i should never have helped lorenzo
07:39choose her for that scholarship you grew up in luxury i only wanted one night under lorenzo's
07:46protection luxury you think i'm better off than you my mother was a human she died when i was small
07:54lord earl brought me back to the estate when i was little lady earl looked at me like she wanted
07:59me
07:59dead my father had women everywhere one more bastard daughter didn't matter to him let alone
08:06a half-blood daughter and pure blood was a sin in itself i learned to read people early without this
08:14face i wouldn't have survived i was trapped between two sides there were other things too things i'd
08:21never been able to explain my body had always felt faintly wrong like something inside me was pressed flat
08:28held down some mornings i woke up with heat in my hands that faded before i was fully conscious
08:35some nights my blood felt like it was moving too fast i'd asked lady earl about it once when i
08:41was small
08:41she'd given me a small white pill and told me it was vitamins i'd taken them every day since without
08:47thinking i went to uncle luca and begged him to train me to back me up uncle luca never smiled
08:55i had to lock my knees to keep from shaking as i stood in front of him your father has
09:0023 children
09:02why would i invest in a half-blood who won't last because i have nothing to lose i'll do what
09:10they
09:10won't but the timing wasn't right uncle luca turned me away too they said dante vitale was ruthless that
09:19anyone who crossed him got crushed without mercy the meridi clan wanted his protection but they
09:25wouldn't sacrifice a legitimate daughter for it so they chose me uncle luca already knew how the
09:33gathering had ended he sent one message figure it out yourself i was shaking cold all the way through
09:40i wrapped my arms around myself mia touched my frozen hand like she owned it elena do you think lorenz
09:47even understands what the gathering means i wasn't the type to dwell on emotions i needed to find a
09:56way to stay i found lorenzo and asked him directly do you know what tonight actually means sure it's a
10:04matchmaking event but it's just formality half these arrangements fall apart anyway he knew it
10:12don't worry i'll talk to the moretos no one's forcing you into marriage then can you get the
10:19shard back from mia i'll return it tomorrow lorenzo looked uncomfortable that's not good it's already
10:25hers how about i send another one instead don't fight with me over this that white shard had a rare
10:31gold vein running through it it couldn't be replicated everything i've held back all night came out at once
10:38please lorenzo you know i was never going to cling to you i have someone i care about
10:46after three years you'd be free
10:51so why did you humiliate me he stepped forward back to me against the wall
10:58someone you care about
11:04again with this elena no one else is going to take you you're a marati half blood
11:13everyone in palamo knows you're mine
11:17my shadow my little father the words cut deep being called a shadow
11:26it was the price of surviving inside the marati clan pairing it from his mouth made me sick
11:32i stepped back and dumped into elena please don't fight with lorenzo
11:37enough elena it's one night stop making a scene tomorrow mia goes back to her life
11:58i walked out of the hall and got into uncle luca's car
12:02he sat in the shadows dressed in black expression except your loss
12:07house tomorrow you leave for the eastern territory after that you're on your own
12:14i'll come back
12:16we'll see his mouth curved slightly back at the estate lady earl glanced at uncle luca
12:22then at me we've raised you for 18 years time to repay that you've been chosen
12:30tomorrow you leave nothing in this house was mine not even the plane ticket i paid for it myself
12:36uncle luca said nothing and walked to his room i went to my small bedroom and started packing
12:43my half-sister bianca leaned in the doorway inspecting her nails
12:48if i were you i wouldn't have gone to the gathering at all
12:55mom told me to keep an eye on you don't take anything valuable not even tonight's gown
13:02oh and mom said dante vitale is already in love with someone else good luck i took off the gown
13:08in front of her removed every piece of jewelry set it all on the tray then i walked to the
13:14bathroom
13:15in my slip bianca left on my phone mia had already posted a photo glowing lorenzo's arm around her
13:24he was still wearing the cufflinks i'd given him i left everything lorenzo had ever given me behind
13:31before dawn i was up no goodbyes i grabbed my backpack and headed to the airport security
13:38boarding everything smooth as the plane began to taxi i switched my phone off completely cut every
13:46tie to palermo then the announcement came apologies passengers the rossi clan has sealed the airways
13:54above palermo all flights are returning to the terminal
14:03i stared out the window as the runway slowed
14:06it took me a moment to understand what was happening the plane stopped my phone reconnected
14:12messages poured in then a refund notification we apologize for the inconvenience to compensate
14:18the rossi clan will reimburse your ticket at ten times the original price the complaints died
14:23instantly who do you think they're looking a few girls behind me started with this is so dramatic
14:28like something out of a film i scrolled through my phone exhausted lorenzo had gone to the maredi
14:34estate early that morning looking for me when he found i wasn't there he stormed into my bedroom
14:39he saw the gown the jewelry everything i'd left behind but my backpack was gone he panicked he demanded
14:46answers from the maredis that is when he found out i'd already left for the eastern territory lorenzo lost it
14:53nearly tore the estate apart then he started calling but by then i was already on the plane when he
14:59realized i hadn't taken a single thing he'd ever given me he snapped that is when he sealed the sky
15:05i grabbed my backpack and stepped off the plane inside the terminal i stopped go back or keep
15:11moving it was early i was starving i found a small coffee and ordered pasta uncle luca's message came
15:18through do you want to come back lorenzo still wants you the moretti clan ran on schemes lorenzo might spoil
15:24me but he'd never lose face for me going back meant more humiliation moving forward maybe something
15:31different i ate slowly outside the cafty window dragon guards in black flooded the terminal dozens
15:40of them stopping every woman who looked anything like me then lorenzo came through the doors soaked in
15:47sweat phone pressed to his ear he walked straight past my table he looked wrecked frantic
15:54calling my number over and over my phone buzzed in my pocket i watched him when no one answered
16:01he almost smashed the phone against the pillar where is she i've never seen lorenzo like keep searching
16:07completely on every terminal no flight leaves for the eastern territory today i don't care what it costs
16:12i checked my phone there was a flight to the central territories in 20 minutes i scrolled through the
16:17news while i waited palermo's gossip feeds were already running with it two women at the table behind
16:22me we're deep into it god that's so romantic if someone grounded the entire sky for me i'd say yes
16:28on the spot
16:31her friend was more cynical you don't get it last night at the gathering lorenzo gave the
16:36white shard to some human scholarship girl i'm guessing he got played wait he didn't pick a clan
16:42daughter he picked a human then why is he losing his mind today i kept my eyes on my coffee
16:48my guess lorenzo had no idea what the shard ceremony actually meant how would you know
16:56because i was at the gathering last night i went still i glanced back didn't recognize her lucky
17:04so what does the clan girl look like beautiful genuinely stunning then why would lorenzo give the
17:11shard to an outsider who cares the girl's voice sharpened the other one's just a half blood anyway
17:16not like the rest of us i coughed both women turned the moment they saw my face one of them
17:22went
17:22completely silent pointed couldn't speak the other one stared at me what do you know her she's gorgeous
17:32wait are you she looked toward the guards still sweeping the terminal eyes wide
17:39i pressed one finger to my lips both women covered their mouths with both hands i picked up my bag
17:45and walked away behind me i heard one of them hiss you didn't tell me she looked like that you
17:51have
17:51zero chance now zero i reached the gate for the central territories another refund notification hit my
17:58phone the rossi clan had purchased out every route leaving palermo not just the eastern territory
18:03flights everything i stood there phone in hand nowhere to go then it rang an eastern territory number
18:15hello dante vitale i'm sorry i my people are already at the airport they'll bring you to me
18:21my arranged husband his voice was cool unhurried the kind of voice you wanted to keep listening to
18:27before i could explain that the entire sky was sealed i saw it through the terminal
18:31a private aircraft on the tarmac several dragon guards in black stepped off and stood at attention
18:37i said understood i hung up and walked toward the jet
18:43it had started to drizzle the moment i stepped outside an umbrella appeared over my head
18:49a man holding it kept his eyes down respectful
18:54mrs vitale we're here to bring you home
18:57that is when lorenzo spotted me grabbed my wrist elena come with me fight hale's dragon guards
19:04closed in immediately lorenzo's men did the same the two groups faced each other nobody moved
19:10people inside the terminal pressed against the glass phones out the man leading dante's guards was older
19:16immaculate suit the kind of calm that came from having seen everything twice he smiled politely his eyes
19:22didn't mr rossi i'm here to escort mrs vitale home please step aside lorenzo's gaze went cold
19:34she hasn't left polono yet i'd like to see who has the nerve to take what's mine
19:40i was tired deeply tired i tried to tell him more than once but his attention was always somewhere else
19:47always on mia i kept my voice steady lorenzo you've protected me for years i'm grateful
19:56but this is where it ends i don't blame anyone
20:03don't blame anyone then come back with me i'll marry you i'll tell the morettis myself the rain came
20:13harder lorenzo's hair was soaked his eyes were red for just a moment something flickered at the edge of
20:19his irises a deep amber gone before i could be sure i'd seen it dragon blood under pressure even the
20:25composed ones cracked eventually the vital butler stepped between us unmoved apologies mr rossi the
20:32agreement with the moretti clan has been finalized mrs vital leaves with us today lorenzo i told you
20:41i only ever wanted three years i have someone i genuinely care about i was never planning to
20:46marry you this again elena you've been locked inside the moretti clan your whole life when
20:52exactly did you meet someone to love i know calling you my shadow upset you stop being stubborn and come
20:58back we'll talk there okay his tone had shifted almost pleading i was grateful truly he'd kept me
21:07safe for years but when lorenzo let go of my hand and gave the shard to mia or path split
21:13for good
21:16lorenzo i said quietly mia is your chosen all of plemer witnessed it
21:24go be happy with her he laughed short and bitter marry a human girl are you serious
21:33i'd marry you before i'd ever marry her my expression went flat lorenzo had always wanted
21:39me around he'd never once respected me i didn't hesitate this time i turned and walked toward
21:44the jet with the butler lorenzo stood frozen behind me fists clenched something radiating off him that
21:50i didn't look back to read elena you leave palamo and no one protects you anymore think carefully
21:59once you're gone don't come back regretting it i didn't answer i stepped onto the plane the butler
22:06had already prepared a change of clothes you can freshen up there mrs vitari getting caught in the rain
22:13you'll catch cold the jet was extraordinary not a rental this was the vital clan's own aircraft
22:22the vital clan operated on a different level entirely even the morettis didn't own anything
22:27like this the plane didn't just have a bathroom it had a full bedroom the bedding was soft pink
22:34definitely not something dante vital had chosen for himself i changed in the bathroom then stopped
22:42the clothes fit me perfectly when i came out the butler had quietly moved the dragon guards to the
22:48rear of the cabin excuse me does the lord usually use this plane he saw my confusion this aircraft
22:55was commissioned specifically for you mrs vitari everything was customized to your preferences
23:02the lord selected the bedding personally softest material available i didn't know what to say
23:09something this considered given to a stranger without a word wasn't he supposed to be in love
23:14with someone else the flight to the eastern territory is long you should rest the climate
23:19there is dry we've prepared a humidifier for you
23:25no one had ever thought about my comfort before i'd spent my whole life reading other people's moods
23:31adjusting disappearing into whatever shape kept me safe this kind of attention made me restless
23:38the butler noticed and quietly withdrew i pulled out a pen and started sketching notes my mind was
23:45already running through what came next what i was walking into what i'd need the plane landed on a
23:51sprawling green estate i looked closer the vital compound vast immaculate the main structure was built
23:59from dark stone that seemed to hold the light differently from ordinary material
24:04warmer like it had its own temperature even from the steps of the jet i could feel it
24:10a subtle heat rising from the ground beneath my feet ancient dragon rock i'd read about it once
24:15quarried only from the oldest dragon territories it held warmth for centuries without any source
24:22i filed the detail away without knowing why it mattered dante vitale came out to meet me personally
24:28he was smiling warm nothing like the ruthless lord the rumors described he draped a coat over my shoulders
24:37before i could speak something moved in my chest the moment his hand touched my shoulder a pull faint
24:44but distinct like a thread i hadn't known was there had just been tugged from the other end
24:50i stepped back put some space between us told myself it was nerves but
24:58i said carefully
25:14someone i love three years
25:16yes three years i'll play the role of your wife i won't interfere with your private life
25:23that we separate i boutique anything from you i'll sign what you need his frown deepened he looked sharply
25:32at the butler some silent question passing between them then he stepped closer gently pulled me in my face went
25:40completely red who said anything about keeping things separate his voice was quiet
25:48almost amused you're my wife he seemed to enjoy the fact that i was flustered he lifted my chin
25:56leaned in just slightly everything i have is yours we went inside i still hadn't recovered
26:06wasn't this man supposed to be cold
26:09ruthless the interior of the vital compound was all sharp lines and clean edges
26:15dark stone minimal furniture
26:17but there were soft touches throughout warm fabrics carefully chosen color things that had
26:26clearly been added recently good taste nothing clashing the additions made the space feel less severe
26:34more like somewhere a person could actually breathe
26:38i sat on the couch i handed him a folded piece of paper
26:44this is my plan i'd like to borrow some money i'll pay it back in installments
26:49he took it scanned it
26:51you need money it was humiliating arriving with nothing lord earl's half-blood daughter showing
26:58up with a backpack and no dowry no offering nothing of value for the vitals this had to look like
27:06an
27:06insult i'd done my research before landing the vital clan didn't need alliances didn't need anyone's
27:13backing they stood alone at the top of the eastern territory people came from across the continent
27:18just to ask them for favors i still didn't understand why they'd agreed to this match with the morettis
27:24i pressed my lips together yes i don't have money right now but i have a way to pay you
27:30back
27:30i promise he didn't question it his hand closed over mine instead warm against my cold fingers he rubbed them
27:39slowly
27:43my face flushed again his mood seemed to improve why do you need money i looked up suddenly aware
27:52maybe as mrs vital i wasn't supposed to have financial control maybe i was expected to live on
27:58an allowance to ask permission i straightened mr vitale i don't want to be trapped by the moretti clan
28:05anymore and i'm not going to sit here and ask for handouts i want my own income my own footing
28:10and
28:11if possible i want to take back what's mine from the morettis he looked surprised like he hadn't
28:17expected me to say it that plainly and he reached over and ruffled my hair everything the vitalists have
28:23is yours he nodded to the butler the butler produced a black card this is my account spend whatever you
28:31need
28:31the room dante gave me was the finest in the entire compound morning light came through the
28:37windows at the perfect angle the dd core was soft feminine like something out of a story i'd never
28:44thought would include me that night i lay down expecting to stare at the ceiling for hours instead
28:50i was asleep within minutes deep still dreamless i told myself it was exhaustion from the journey
28:58i didn't consider the warmth rising steadily from the ancient stone beneath the floors didn't consider
29:04that the vital compound had been built on the oldest dragon rock in the eastern territory that the heat it
29:10held had a particular quality one that ancient texts described as resonant with dormant dragon blood
29:17i didn't know any of that then i just slept
29:26for the first time in years i woke up rested a message from uncle luca lorenzo is furious why
29:33didn't you go back with him uncle luca was the only person in the moretti clan who'd ever looked out
29:39for
29:39me but his protection always came at a price i typed back uncle i am a person not something you
29:47can call
29:48back whenever it is convenient his reply was immediate cold really i thought you'd already
29:54turned yourself into a weapon three years passed i borrowed 100 000 from the vitals i did everything
30:03a lord's wife was supposed to do attended gallus with dante smiled for the right people let the right
30:09people court my favor i played the part the beautiful composed lady vital dante spoiled me without
30:17restraint but i never lost sight of why i was there behind the smiles i was working that hundred
30:24thousand became leverage quietly carefully somewhere in the second year i stopped taking the white pills
30:33it wasn't a decision exactly i'd run out during a trip and hadn't replaced them a week passed then
30:40another i kept waiting to feel worse instead i felt more heat in my hands when i was angry
30:47a sharpness behind my eyes when i was focused small things easy to dismiss i told myself it was
30:54confidence that i was simply becoming someone harder to intimidate i didn't connect it to the pills
31:01i didn't connect it to anything yet
31:06i dismantled meridi operations piece by piece pulled their best dragon cards and wing commanders
31:12into my own network lord sergio finally had to look at what he'd built his 23 children useless
31:19everyone the second generation families afraid the clan's collapse would hit their share of the territories
31:26they started selling off assets i bought them all one by one the gambling operations
31:33the shipping routes the legitimate fronts they'd spent years building i took the businesses that
31:39were bleeding and made them profitable expanded the territories they'd abandoned by the time lord
31:46sergio understood what was happening i controlled more of the clan's income than he did the other
31:51meretti heirs couldn't touch me anymore during the negotiations for the last of the shipping routes
31:57something happened that i couldn't explain the meretti representative had tried to walk out
32:02i reached out to stop them and the glass of water on the table between us had cracked clean through
32:08no one had touched it the representative had gone pale he signed everything
32:14i stood in the corridor afterward and looked at my hand it felt warm the same warmth i'd been
32:22ignoring for months i thought about the pills i thought about the pills 18 years of white capsules
32:30lady earl had called them vitamins she'd never explained what they were for
32:34never let me miss a dose i'd stopped taking them 14 months ago since then the heat in my hands
32:42the sharpness the sharpness behind my eyes the glass that cracked without being touched
32:47i wasn't imagining it something was different something was changing i didn't know what
32:55it was past 10 when i got home that night dante was in the living room sitting in the normal
33:01waiting my chest tightened i walked up behind him and wrapped my arms around his shoulders
33:11i held on for a moment then i let go and stepped back composed again
33:19why so late are you tired i had soup made the words i'd been preparing stuck in my throat
33:27he took my hand and led me to the table watched me eat
33:34when are you going to let yourself lean on me you don't have to run yourself into the ground like
33:39this the warmth of it hit me somewhere i wasn't ready for i looked at him in the low light
33:45felt
33:46something pull tight in my chest the three years are up it's time for me to go back to finish
33:52what i
33:52started with the morettis dante had always known i hadn't let go of my plans he didn't look surprised
33:58you don't like the morettis from what i know only luca was ever decent to you
34:04and lorendo he came to the eastern territory several times looking for you you never saw him
