Who the hell did this?

The Sovereign Academy?

But Hayley had never given them her league’s location.

Their first contact with the Sovereign Academy had been at the inner camp in the canyon between Brookville and Crestford, miles away from Aecraton. The second time was over the sea. There was no way they could’ve pinpointed Haylight League’s position.

During negotiations, not a single detail about their location had been revealed.

And yet those fighter jets had just roared in and headed straight for their territory.

How the hell did the Sovereign Academy know where they were?

Henerland’s territory was massive. Even if they had a rough idea, there was no way they could’ve found them so precisely along that vast coastline.

Who leaked it?

Just then, a little girl came running over in a panic.

“Hayley! Something’s wrong. Ruby’s been taken!”

Winona rushed up, breathless. Hayley hadn’t brought her along and had left her under Ruby’s care.

The moment Hayley heard Winona, she snapped. “Someone took Aunt Ruby?”

“Yes!”

Hayley bolted toward the research building where Ruby worked.

Inside, everyone had collapsed unconscious, the surveillance monitors shattered. Ruby’s lab was in complete chaos.

Hayley’s mind went blank. She couldn’t even think.

Only one line kept repeating in her mind.

Ruby had been taken.

Taken.

In this entire world, Ruby was the only family she had left.

She was the one warm light Hayley held onto.

Hayley had always believed that if she had never found Ruby, she would’ve turned into something cold in the apocalypse, something ruthless and stripped of any humanity.

After meeting Ruby, her temper had softened. The way she handled things had changed a little.

She understood now that everyone was someone else’s family, someone else’s reason to keep going.

Hayley didn’t need Ruby to do anything. Just having her there was enough to remind her she wasn’t alone.

“Boss!” Leonard came running over. “Scott led a group into the inner camp and disappeared through the farthest exit!”

Still dazed, Hayley suddenly snapped into clarity.

Scott.

Scott…!

He was the one who pointed her toward Derek’s trail.

He was the one who led her to the clues about Ascendant Creed in the castle.

He was the one who tipped her off about the inner camp.

The pieces slammed together in her mind. Everything she knew about Ascendant Creed had been guided by Scott. He had been so obedient this whole time, always reliable, always steady on the front lines, never causing trouble.

Scott was one of them. He belonged to the Sovereign Academy.

He had been planted there all along!

And now, after all that time, he had taken Ruby.

Just as Hayley finished connecting the dots, another message came in.
