Chapter 17: Blood Price
"The page names no pendant," I said.
My voice carried across the yard, because the whole pack had gone quiet to hear it.
"It names blood and a free word. That's all."
"My mother nursed the old Luna," Wynne said. "She told me what the page left out."
"Then you've known the whole time."
Wynne's smile twitched.
The court healer had come down the east stair behind me with the green ledger under her arm.
She crossed the cobbles and took the pendant out of Wynne's hand before Wynne could close it.
She turned it in the torchlight, and she pressed her thumb on the dented fist.
It opened.
Inside it was empty.
"A reliquary," the healer said. "The kind a sealer carries before she moves a seal into living skin. It is hollow. It has been hollow since the night it was used."
She held it up so the pack could see the inside.
