As I processed this, I became aware of someone's gentle gaze on me. I looked over instinctively and found Luna Gloria, who'd just been wheeled out by a servant.

Both Miranda and Hailey looked utterly blindsided by this turn of events.
Hailey recovered first, turning to Elizabeth with barely concealed desperation. "Elizabeth... if she really is our sister, you'd still do this to her?"
"No matter who she is," Elizabeth said firmly, "breaking the law has consequences."
Her tone left no room for argument. Miran
