    Summary

    “I wonder if you’d be dragging your feet like this,” Nina spoke through gritted teeth. “If it was Inej’s life on the line.”

    A storm fell over Kaz’s features, but he did not move, did not let his eyes fall away. Instead, he spoke in a slow, calculated tone. “I’d choose your next words very carefully, little deathrender. However soft you think I’ve grown, remember that I am always willing to show you that the monster is still alive and well.”
    ********************************************************************************

    It's been sixteen days since Matthias and Wylan were taken, and Kaz Brekker has chased down every possible lead only to come up empty handed. However, with an angry Nina and desperate Jesper at his side, he is willing to do whatever it takes to find his missing crows and bring them back home - even if it means more blood on his hands.

    Summary

    he couldn’t say precisely what it was that changed. whether it was that woman he saw on the lid, skin the same deep brown as his, wearing her gold-clasped twists like a crown; or seeing wylan with marya, thinking about what he could remember about his ma, of sitting between her knees while she worked out the kinks in his hair; or maybe it was just being happy and settled and unhurried—letting wylan poke around his childhood and pull out the things that mattered.

    whatever it was, jesper had decided to grow out his hair.

    Summary

    “If you get out there while you’re drugged there’s no telling what you’ll do,” Wylan said, pushing past Kaz to get back to his work station. “I’d think you'd want to avoid pulling the Dregs into this gang war.” He yanked a cabinet open and rummaged around for a pipette. Opened the vial. Drew out a drop. In his head he ran through the motions of the synthesis: he’d gotten close, before, with the blood sample. All he had to do now was see it through to the finish.

    “I know that.” Kaz’s voice was nearly a snarl, but then again it always sounded like that. There was still time. “I mean, why didn’t you lock it from the outside?

    “Like that would stop you," Wylan scoffed. "You need an antidote. You said the others were dead within the hour.”

    “Only after killing everyone in their vicinity, Merchling, did you forget that part?”

    Summary

    Above Wylan’s bony left ankle, metal gleams: a heavy iron manacle, welded to a long chain of links that snake behind him, clattering on the floor as he moves.

    Jesper watches it, mouth open as everything he’d assumed shatters and comes back together in a new shape. “You’re a prisoner!” he blurts out.

    Wylan twists sharply to look at him, face creased in a familiar aggravated scowl. “Are you an idiot?” he demands. “The locked door wasn’t a clue?”

    There are new weapons appearing in the Barrel. Kaz sends Jesper undercover to find out where they’re coming from. Jesper finds something else entirely.

    Wylan knows that.

    But Jesper's weakness for risk is beginning to put their relationship in jeopardy. Or, more specifically, it's put Wylan in jeopardy...
