Scarlet Queen

NEVE

I have thirty nights to kill my husband.

It was the only way to save him. Every family in the West wants him buried for a murder he swears he didn't commit, so I claimed him for myself. Now nobody is allowed to lay a finger on him. Nobody but me.

He's mine to keep or mine to bury.

He keeps every rule I set. He sleeps by the door with one eye open. And when he looks at me, I forget every reason I have to hate him.

My family wants blood. My body wants him. And the clock doesn't care which one wins.

ACHILLE

She holds my life in her hands, and I gave it to her without a fight.

I don't touch her unless she tells me to. I answer every question with the truth. I count the nights she has left the way I used to count my sins.

She can have my heart or my last breath. Both were always hers.

The men who want me dead are closing in, and the war that took her father isn't finished with her yet.

I'll stand in front of every gun in the West for her.

And when the last night comes, I'll let her choose.
