Amber POV

The castle settled into an uneasy routine.

Every morning I visited Jason before the children woke up.

Every afternoon I sat beside him, reading reports aloud, hoping that somewhere beneath the confusion, he could still hear my voice.

Every night I held his hand until exhaustion forced me back to my room.

Some days he looked almost like himself.

Other days he barely recognized where he was.

It broke my heart every single time.

Meanwhile, Emory practically moved into the school’s laboratory.

Mrs. Sun joked that she was going to assign him a classroom and make him part of the faculty.

None of us laughed very much.

The antidote described in The Secrets of Botany was far more complicated than any of us had expected.

The Starplant root had to be harvested at a precise stage of growth.

The extract had to be purified repeatedly.

One mistake…

One degree too hot…

One ingredient added a minute too early…

And the entire batch became useless.

I lost count of how many failed attempts lined the laboratory shelves.

Each one represented another day Jason remained trapped inside his own mind.

Emory refused to give up.

For two weeks, he barely slept.

The laboratory lights remained on almost every night.

Mrs. Sun personally made sure he ate, often carrying meals into the lab herself because otherwise he simply forgot.

Finally…

On the fourteenth day…

Emory knocked on my office door.

He looked exhausted.

His hair was a mess.

Mere were dark circles beneath his eyes.

But…

He was smiling.

“I did it.”

I stood so quickly my chair tipped backward.

“You made it?”

He carefully held up a small glass vial.

Inside was a pale golden liquid.

“It matches the composition described in the book.”

“It took twelve failed batches…”

“…but this one is stable.”

Hope flooded through me.

“So we can give it to Jason?”

Emory nodded slowly.

“Yes.”

Then his smile faded.

“There is a problem.”

My heart sank.

“What?”

He looked down at the vial.

“This is enough…”

“…for one dose.”

Silence filled the room.

“How many does he need?”

Emory sighed.

“I won’t know for certain until we see how he responds.”

He paused.

“But judging by the concentration of the drug in his blood…”

“I estimate…”

“…at least ten doses.”

tared at the tiny vial.

Two weeks…

For one dose.

At that pace…

+15 8chus

It would take months.

Emory seemed to read my thoughts.

“I’m already looking for ways to speed up the process.”

“We’ll get there.”

I nodded.

“We don’t have another choice.”

While Emory continued refining the antidote, I turned my attention back to the people responsible for putting Jason in this situation.

The Vincents hadn’t acted alone.

They had help.

Someone inside Sun Corporation.

Maybe more than one person. 1

And if they had infiltrated one company…

Who was to say they hadn’t infiltrated all of them?

Phoenix Ashes.

Asher Corporation.

Sun Corporation.

The thought made my stomach twist.

How many people were secretly working for Alexander Vincent?

How many smiling faces around us actually reported to him?

They were like cockroaches.

You never found just one.

So…

I decided to flush them out.

I contacted Jason’s secretary.

“Good morning.”
