Marie walked up and scooped Tessa straight into her arms, carrying her bridal–style off the plane.

Sophia stared.

That wasn’t just strength–that was something else. From a distance, anyone would’ve thought Marie was carrying a feather–light pet, not a full–grown human.

She stepped across the uneven sand, bouncing slightly with each step.

Half–asleep, Tessa stirred. Her cheek was pressed against something warm and soft, and she couldn’t help but nuzzle it a few times.

So soft… so warm…

Struggling to open her heavy eyelids, she looked up and saw-

Was that…?

“Stella?” she mumbled groggily.

Marie glanced down. “Sleep another two hours.”

“Um… can you put me down?”

She was exhausted–completely drained–but the fact remained: Marie was carrying her in a full princess hold.

She’d never even imagined being princess–carried by another woman.

Marie didn’t argue. She simply dropped her.

With a loud thump, Tessa landed straight on the beach.

Her mind went blank..

Then she looked up at Marie with watery eyes, silent and stunned.

Seriously?

She had said put her down–but not like that!

It was still sand, but her tailbone had definitely hit a rock or something.

Marie saw her just lying there, sniffling and staring. “What? Didn’t you say you wanted to walk? Get up and walk.”

Tessa whimpered, “My butt hurts.”

There was definitely something hard under the sand.

Maric rolled her eyes. “You’re so high maintenance.”

She didn’t even pretend to help. She hadn’t coddled Stella back then, and she wasn’t about to

“MOUL LICIS

She strode ahead without a second glance.

Tessa pouted and climbed up as quickly as she could to catch up. “Can I still sleep for those two hours?”

For real, the last few days had been torture. If she got two hours of sleep a night, she was lucky -and that was on top of barely eating.

And don’t even get her started on the food. Spada Island had nothing but fish. And she hated fish.

Marie replied, “Well, you’re awake now. So no.”

Tessa blinked. That was… incredibly unfair.

Marie suddenly stopped.

Tessa, trailing behind, crashed right into her back.

“Mmgh–hey, what perfume is she wearing?” she muttered, then instantly regretted it.

That scent mixing with her own sweat? Not the best combo.

But seriously–why had Marie stopped so suddenly?

Tessa frowned. “What now? Got some brilliant torture idea again?”

She’d blurted it out before her brain could catch up.

The worst kind of slip.

Marie turned slowly, face darkening. Tessa laughed nervously. “I–I meant… anything you’d like

to share?”

Oh god

She had definitely spent too much time around Victor’s people. That whole loose–mouth

disease was contagious.

Marie snorted coldly and turned toward the sea. In the distance, a crescent–shaped mountain

curved around the coast, a hollow gap in the center.

Marie pointed. “See that mountain?”

Tessa nodded. “Uh–huh. You want me to move it?”

Marie stared at her like she’d just grown a second head.

Was this girl serious? Move a mountain?

What kind of caveman nonsense–did she think this was mythology?

Marie sighed. “If you had that kind of strength, Star wouldn’t need to call me to train you.”

“If you were really that tough, who in the Ashen Pact could stop you?”

Tessa froze.

Right… that actually made sense.

“So what are we doing with the mountain?”
