Cedric slaps my back as he passes me into the grand chapel tucked in the corner of the west wing of Sumerkat. He lets out a low whistle, resting his hands on his hips.

"This is a nice place." Cedric raises both brows as he glances at me over his shoulder.

I nod, looking around at the intricately carved stone. As I glance back towards the door, my mind's eye fills with the image of Vi walking towards the front, clad in a stunning black gown that shimmers with every step she takes.

She looks like the Queen of Scle. My breath snags in my throat, and my mouth drops open. One blink and the whole vision clears, and I'm left staring at an empty doorway.

"Demetrius?" Cedric steps into my view, worry etched into every part of his face. "You've been staring into space for the past five minutes."

"I need to get to Aero. Now."

Spinning on my heel, I rush off before he can ask questions. I don't have any answers. I just know I need to see the woman who will become my wife.
