Xander confronts Alarik about his secrets. Saria uses a blanket to hide the mark on her arm. Xander asks about her bandage, and she blames Alarik for the hurt. Xander tries to punch Saria for speaking without respect, but Alarik grabs his fist. Saria knocks past both men and runs down the torchlit hallway. She pushes open the large golden doors and finds a room filled with cloaked elders.
Xander corners Alarik to ask what he hides. Saria uses a blanket to bandage her forearm out of sight. Xander notices the wrapped arm, and Saria says Alarik hurt her. When Xander raises his fist to strike her, Alarik catches it.
Saria sees her chance while Alarik holds Xander back. She shoves past both dragon lords and darts through the doorway. She runs as fast as she can down the torchlit corridor toward a set of heavy golden doors at the end.
Saria shoves the heavy double doors open to find a way outside. Instead, she enters a massive hall. Cloaked dragon elders line both sides of the room. Their eyes burn with bright fire, leaving her with nowhere left to escape.
“What are you hiding from me, Alarik?”
“Alarik hurt my arm when he brought me here.”
“She wears my collars, Xander.”
“I have nowhere to run.”
Saria bursts through the golden doors into the throne room, only to stop in her tracks. Cloaked dragon elders surround her on every side, their eyes glowing with dragon fire. She stands trapped before the entire court. Will the dragon elders discover her hidden mate mark, or will Alarik catch up before they execute her?
