Thirty years after Last Sacrifice, things are going good. Lissa’s still queen and long ago married Christian. Tasha has been all but written off as a bad dream. Dimitri and Rose are tied at the hip. Court is the closest thing to Utopia there will ever be in this day and age.
It’s the outside world that is in trouble, and that worries all. Lissa and Christian’s children are going to school outside Court with Dimitri’s nieces while his nephew, Paul has been assigned to guard them along with a small addition to the Belikov bunch. With Rose not being much of the mothering type, she was beside herself when a young girl walked into her life. It wasn’t just any young girl. She was a dhampir for one and Rose’s younger sister. That was five years ago, and the girl was fifteen.
She wasn’t raised like a dhampir should have been, however. Oh no, she was raised by none other than Abe Mazur himself. Now she’s causing even more trouble than Rose ever had, but she’s a good guardian. Though, she just has a lot of issues with authority. However, training with Rose and Dimitri, she was quickly assigned to Lissa and Christian’s children along side Paul.
Now for the kicker of the matter, the royal children are in exceptional danger. Threats have been made on their lives at a consistent rate. Court is no longer safe for them and the schools are even worse. However, one school seems to be alright for now. The academy is secluded, it’s close to a very welcoming family, and no one would expect the Queen to send her beloved children to a place she had once called home herself.
All good things come to an end. Changing names and location works wonders when hiding from your own people. However, Strigoi are resourceful and have the time to be patient in their research. They’ve found the school, and are plotting its takedown as we speak. The school is clueless as to what is going on, and no one is nearly as safe as they think.
