Rhys tells them there is a place on his lands of peace, art and prosperity. He shows them Velaris and says they have kept it a secret for 5,000 years. The queens says they will think about it, discuss it and let them know.

Rhys explains that it is urgent and the queen reveals Rhys sent them a letter asking them to help him save Feyre's people so they can one day live in a world where there is peace between their people. One of the queens questions if it is all just a manipulation tactic. Nesta gets angry and demands they give them the book, begs for them to help and not leave them to die. Cassian comes up to Nesta and says he will fight for her and her people, wipes a tear from her eye.

The queens leave but they already know they will say no. The young golden haired queen has left a box with the book in it on her chair. She had snuck it in there to give to them. A letter from her says she believes him, believes in peace and if anyone asks he stole the book during the meeting. She tells him not to trust the other witches and that the 6th queen was not ill that first meeting.

Rhys tells Nesta and Elain that they can come and stay in Velaris or he will send guards to guard them here if they don't want to go. Nesta lets Elain choose and she says she can't go.

**Chapter 58:** They go back to Velaris and give Amren the second half of the book. Feyre thanks Cassian for what he said to Nesta, she says that Nesta is not like other people - she keeps her walls up to keep from feeling too much. She says Nesta will never forget that he offered to fight for Elain.

She suddenly spots black things flying in the sky, heading towards Velaris. The creatures all look like the Attor, she realises the queens sold them out and these have been sent by the King of Hybern. One of them drops the body of the young, golden-haired witch, she is impaled on a lamppost and dies. The creature says she has been sent from the mortal queen and Jurian.

Feyre runs to protect the artists quarter, she uses her powers to make wolves from water and other animals to chase down and kill the creatures. She sees the Attor trying to fly back to the King of Hybern and she goes after it.

**Chapter 59:** Rhys is trying to contact her, she bocks him out so she can concentrate. She winnows above the Attor and slams ash arrows into its wings. She wraps her arms around it and turns herself into a living flame. She stabs the Attor, saying it is for Rhy, Clare and for her. She winnows away just as the Attor plummets to the ground and dies.

**Chapter 60:** Velaris has been secured once again. Amren has cracked the code of the book and says that to nullify the cauldrons power Feyre needs to touch it and speak the words she found in the book. Feyre asks what happens if they put the two book pieces together. Amren says the blast of power it would cause would be felt in every corner on earth and would draw all types of enemies to them.

They want to winnow Feyre in to destroy the Cauldron. They have narrowed its location down to one floor in the King's castle. But they would need Rhys to stay outside while Feyre goes into the stronghold.

Rhys and Feyre decide to share a bedroom and he gifts her his mothers ring - the one she got from the Weaver. Says his mother gave it to him to remind him she was always with him. She gave it to the Weaver and told him that if he were to marry or mate then she would be smart enough or strong enough to get it back. She said if she were neither then she would not survive the marriage. He promised her that any potential bride would be given the test.

She tells him that after they nullify the cauldron she wants to do it all - marry, have the bond declared and have a big party. Rhys responds with: ***"And if I wanted to go one step beyond that?"***

**Chapter 61:** They head to Hybern, infiltrate the castle and locate the cauldron.

**Chapter 62:** Feyre hears the cauldron speaking to her, telling her to put the pieces of the book together. She connects them and goes to say the words to nullify it but doesn't get to before Jurian appears.

**Chapter 63:** Rhys appears, takes the book from Feyre and hides it in his clothes. Jurian asks where Miryam is, when they tell him she is dead he says he knows they're lying. Mor says she is with Drakon and that they are mate and married. They can't seem to winnow out with the cauldron or by themselves, there is a spell on the castle and they are now trapped.

The King has his spell book back and he used to to get rid of their powers. The King comes in and Jurian fires and ash bolt through Azriel's chest, it is covered in Bloodbane. The King says they need to do as he says or he will kill Azriel. He takes them to his throne room where Tamlin and Lucien are waiting and he says: ***"Now that I've upheld by end of the bargain, I expect you to uphold yours."***

**Chapter 64:** Tamlin made a bargain with the King of Hybern - if the King gave Tamlin Feyre then he would allow Hybern forces to enter through the Spring Court and use it as a base while he removes the wall. He also agreed that Feyre would work for the King. Tamlin holds out his hand and tries to summon Feyre to him, like she is a dog. She tells him she is going nowhere with him, the king says she will agree when she sees the final part of the bargain. The King then orders her to break the bond between Feyre and Tamlin.

Feyre begs Tamlin and he says that she's not well and that Feyre has used the bond to manipulate her. She says she will go with Tamlin if he lets the others go. She manages to get rid of the hold on her power and Tamlin finally realises that Rhys and Feyre are mates.

The King gets control of her powers again. Feyre tells Tamlin if he takes her away she will destroy him and everything he holds dear. But he says she doesn't know what she's talking about. The King says it is in her best interests to do as she's told - the four mortal queens enter and bring her sisters in with them, both are bound and gagged.

**Chapter 65:** The queens agreed to work with the King of Hybern. He promised to gift the queens eternal youth by turning them Fae using the cauldron. Ianthe told the King about Feyre's sisters and he wants to test the process on them first to make sure it works.

Cassian's wings get shredded by a blast of power from the King. The King shoves Elain into the cauldron first. When the cauldron tips over and throws her out she is now a High Fae. Nesta goes next but when she comes out Feyre can tell she is different in some way to Elain.

Lucien suddenly realises that Elain is his mate.

**Chapter 66:** Feyre manages to break free and use her powers. She pretends that Rhys did something to her but she silently begs down the bond for him to play along and get her sisters out. Rhys acts as if she has somehow managed to break free from some spell he put on her. Feyre tells the King to break the bond between Rhys and her, both the mating bond and the bargain.

She then begs Tamlin to let the others go and just take her home. Tamlin tells Rhys he doesn't care if they're mates, Feyre is his. The King breaks their bond.

**Chapter 67:** She faints and wakes to find the tattoo is gone from her arms. Mor winnows and takes her sisters away before Tamlin can, then Rhy, Cas and Az all winnow out. Tamlin takes Feyre home to the Spring Court.

**Chapter 68:** Rhysand's POV: When they return Amren demands to know where Feyre is. Mor tells her what happened, that Feyre pretended to free herself of the bond and from out of Rhys' control. Feyre pretended she hated them all and then the King broke the bond between Rhys and Feyre. Amren says it is impossible to break that type of bond and Rhys reveals she is right.

He reveals the King only broke the bargain between them. Amren demands he go and get Feyre back, he says no. Rhys reveals she's gone into the house to destroy him from within. She will know everything that King of Hybern does. Amren says she's his mate not his spy and he needs to go get her. Rhys says she is his mate, his spy and the High Lady of the Night Court. He says if they had removed her gloves they would have seen a matching tattoo on her right hand.

He tells them the night before they went to a priestess who swore her in as his High Lady. Feyre is now High Lady and his equal in every single way. Rhys says their High Lady has made a sacrifice for her court and they will move when the time is right. He says until then they go to war.

**Chapter 69: Feyre's POV:** Feyre plays along and tells Tamlin she can help him find them all and get her sisters back. She thinks Lucien might be suspicious of her. She plans to take them down from within.
