---- But this time, it was scattered, untamed, excited by something something hungry, a hollow space in my
chest that demanded to be filled.
NO! TAKETO SIGRID OR | WILL STOP USING YOU!" | roared in my mind.
It was as if it had a will of its own, always like a monster living inside me.
At last, the dark mist slithered forward, heading in a direction I followed with weary stepsbut determined.
Only the whisper of my footsteps echoed in my ears, along with other voices...
wails | forced myself to block out.
Icouldnt do anything to avenge them.
Then suddenly | froze.

And voicesjust ahead.
| cloaked myself in shadows, melting into the darkness of the night.

servant holding asmall bundleone that sobbed weaker and weaker.
The blanket slipped slightly, and under the silver light, | recognized the child.
One of them.
The ones they called cursed.
His skin was marked in blacklike hideous tattoos, like so many of my own deformities.
---- It meant he had to die.
He wasnt the perfect heirjust a humiliation, a disgrace to his mother.
The witch who was now discussing how to dispose of the consequences of sleeping with a weak elemental.
A sharp pain stabbed through my skull.
| pressed a hand to my temple, dizzy, my vision tilting And then, long-forgotten fragments of memory surged
forward: eee FLASHBACK "Lady Lucrecia, its twoits two! Twins! Oh, its a miracle, thank the Godd! Whats

Twas much, much younger.
Peering through the doorway as basins of water were carried in and out.
The stench of blood filled the air.
The slave women moved nervously, while the screams of that fucking witch rang through the chamber.
---- She wanted to bleed out on that bed.
| stared, unblinking.
Those had been the calmest months since | had arrived in this hell.
Luerecia had leftalonebecause she was pregnant.
And now, as | watched them pull the first infant free My mind staggered under the realization.
That child could be mine.
Both of them, maybe...
Though Lucrecia didnt only sleep with me.

The wailing of a newborn, shoved aside.
The slaves exchanged fearful glances as the woman on the bed groaned and sweated, the midwifes hands
between her splayed legs.
Then, the second baby emerged...
And he was cursed too.
