Chapter 41

Alessandra

IT WAS OFFICIAL. I was Alessandra Isabella Allegro Stark. For now, at least.

Soon enough, we would drop the Stark and add a different last name—the name of our new coven. And then we would add Queen in front of my name.

But right now, it was as good as things could get. I was one step closer to being Queen Alessandra. And becoming Queen was the only thing that really mattered to me right now.

As Sebastian walked me down the aisle, our guests clapping around us, my eyes locked on Zoe’s.

I had heard that girl talking and whispering during the ceremony, which led me to one conclusion: Julia was there with her; I was certain of it.

I was no fool, even though Sebastian seemed to think I was. But I’d figured him out. I knew how he had kept his slave hidden from me.

Apparently, he had gotten his witch to put an invisibility spell on his little girlfriend.  

Well, Zoe Blackwood needed to watch her back. She thought Sebastian would do whatever he could to protect her, but now that I was on my way to becoming Queen, my word would be the rule of the land.  

The way I saw it, I had three options:

1). I could either banish her from our kingdom or, better yet, from all of Deadwood;

2). I could punish her for all of her wrongdoings; or

3). I could kill her.

I wasn’t really sure which sounded like the most appealing option, but I was certain of one thing. Invisible or not, I was going to find Julia tonight.

And as soon as I got my hands on her, I would be one step closer to destroying Sebastian’s life, exactly like I wanted.
