“I don’t understand. Aragon, Marcel said, his brow furrowed in concern. “What’s going on with Vinor? What does he was with Sapphire?
Thesitated, unure of how much to reveal. But Marcel was my closest friend, and I knew I could trust him with anything. I took a deep breath and
began to explain.
“I’m not entirely sure. Ladmitted. Other than what you reported to me and what he told me when we saw each other. I don’t think there is something he he wants or he has other sinister hours”
Marcel’s eyes widened in surprise. “You think there is something the he wants?” he asked,
I nodded. “1 do,” I said, “Victor might be everything bad and wicked but he wouldn’t be so focused on getting her thai he wouldn’t have anything mone to gain by the end of all of this.”
Marrel’s face darkened with anger. “That’s not good enough,” he growled. “We need in know what Victor’s planning and we need to know now.”
I nodded, my mind racing with possibilities. “I agree,” I said. “That’s why Ive been trying to gather more information. But Victor’s being careful. Marrel. He’s covering his tracks, and it’s hard to get a read on him.”
Marcel’s eyes narrowed, his mind racing with possibilities Tthink we need to take a clover look at Victor’s past,” he aid. “See if there’s anything. there that can give us a clue about what he’s planning “

Marcel nodded, his eyes locked on mine. “Be careful, Aragon,” he warned. “Victor’s not someone to be underestimated. He’s mithless, and be II stop at nothing to get what he wants “I nodded, my jaw clenched in detemination.
“The careful,” I promised. “Tu Ternot going to back down, Marcel. I’m going to find out what Victor’s planning and I’m going to stop him. ”

I watched as Sapphire v eyes lockeil on Marcels, a look of trust and grataude on her face. I knew that she felt safe within and that we would ein everything in nur power to protect her.
As looked at Marcel, I knew that we were in this together. We would work together to uncover Victor’s plans, and to keep Sapphire safe. No matter

I hesitated, unsure of how to answer. But Marcel spoke again.
“We’re not entirely sure.” he said. “But we’re going to find out, Sapphire. And we’re going to stop him, no matter what it takes
Sapphire nodded, a look of determination on her face. “I’m not going to let him scare me.” she said. “I’m going to face him head–on, and I’m going to make sure he knows that Im not afraid of him.”
