for sarah and jenny— i don’t need tickets to caraval because both of you have already made so many of my dreams come true. every story has four parts: the beginning, the middle, the almost-ending, and the true ending. unfortunately, not everyone gets a true ending. most people give up at the part of the story where things are the worst, when the situation feels hopeless, but that is where hope is needed most. only those who persevere can find their true ending. before the beginning scarlett dragna’s bedroom was a palace built of wonder and the magic of make-believe. but to a person who’d forgotten how to imagine, it might have just looked like a disaster of dresses. garnet-red gowns littered the ivory carpets, while cerulean frocks hung from the corners of the iron canopy bed, swinging gently as a gust of salty wind snuck in from the open …

l. “give it back, that’s my crown! i can’t be a queen without a crown.” their mother’s frown won as she edged closer to the bed. scarlett was generally less combative than tella, but both girls’ mouths twisted stubbornly as their hands wrapped around opposite ends of a pearl necklace. “find a new crown, it’s my pirate treasure!” tella gave a fantastic yank and pearls flew across the room. pop! pop! pop! the mother caught one, deftly capturing it between two delicate fingers. the tiny globe was as pink as her daughters’ cheeks, now that both girls had finally looked up to see her. scarlett’s hazel eyes were already turning glassy; she had always been more sensitive than her sister. “she broke my crown.” “a true queen’s power isn’t in her crown, my little love. it’s here.” her mother placed a hand over her heart. then she turned to tella. …

g 1 donatella the first time legend appeared in tella’s dreams, he looked as if he’d just stepped out of one of the stories people told about him. as dante, he’d always dressed in shades as black as the rose tattooed on the back of his hand. but tonight, as legend, he wore a seduction-red double-breasted tailcoat lined in gold, accented by a matching cravat, and his signature top hat. shiny locks of black hair peeked out from beneath the brim of the hat, sheltering coal-dark eyes that brightened when he looked at her. his eyes glittered more than the twilit waters surrounding their intimate boat. this was not the flat, cold look he’d given tella two nights ago, right after he’d rescued her from a deck of cards and then callously abandoned her. tonight he was smiling like a wicked prince, escaped from the stars, ready to spirit her …

him. she wanted to forgive him. she wanted to believe legend wasn’t all that different from dante, and that she was more than just a game piece he wanted to play with. she wanted to believe he’d left her that night because he’d been scared. but rather than looking regretful for what he’d done, he appeared irritated that she was still angry with him. the sky grew darker as writhing purple clouds bisected the crescent moon, severing it into two pieces that floated across the sky like a fractured smile. “i had somewhere i needed to be.” her hopes sank at the coolness in his voice. around them the air turned sooty as fireworks burst above their heads, shattering into brilliant glimmers of pomegranate red, reminding her of the fiery display from two nights ago. tella glanced up to see the sparks dance into an outline of elantine’s palace—legend’s palace …
