Throne of Secrets (Prince of Sin, #2)

by Kerri Maniscalco

“You don’t think Adriana wielded the quill, do you?” Envy straightened from where he’d been leaning against the railing, brows raised as he looked at me, then Sloth. “She is a writer.” Sloth was silent for a few moments, his gaze turning inward. That he didn’t immediately call us both idiots set me further on edge. Eventually, he lifted a shoulder. “It’s possible. Maybe you did something that made her want to forget. If she did use the quill, she might not be aware.” “Wouldn’t she know if she had the quill?” Greed asked. “Or the journal or parchment?” “Not necessarily.” Envy’s expression turned dark. “She might have hidden them and forgotten or tossed them out after she’d left the ball. Anything’s possible.” “Maybe someone coerced her into writing it and she had no idea what it was,” Sloth added. “It stands to reason it had nothing to do with you, and maybe it was about someone wanting her. Perhaps she ignored someone’s pursuit who didn’t take kindly to that.”
