Chapter 17: The Same Cup

I put the cup down very carefully on its saucer.

My hand was steady. I was proud of that.

Oona came in a minute later in green velvet, eating a bread roll, and stopped when she saw my face.

"What?"

"Smell that."

She leaned over the cup and sniffed.

Then she sniffed again, and the roll fell out of her hand.

"That's not chamomile."

"Some of it is."

Her face went hard in a way I'd never seen on her. She looked exactly like her brother.

"I'll get Evander. I'll get the guards. I'll get the whole..."

"No," I said. "Get me a lid."

The great hall was packed to the painted ceiling.

Long tables ran the length of it, and every pack in North America sat at them under its own flag.

At the far end, on the raised step, the high table held the King, the Council, and their families.

My father sat in his Council place in his dark brown suit.

Lyla sat beside him in white silk and diamonds, bright as a bride.

I came in late, on purpose.

The doors opened, and three hundred conversations stopped one table at a time.
