Scarlet is imprisoned and spends the next day “hating herself. Hating these men that kept her prisoner. Hating Wolf” (295). One of the pack members comes to take her to her “precious Grand-mère” (295), and Scarlet leaps at the opportunity. After weeks of wondering and searching, Scarlet finally sees her grandmother. She bursts into tears as her grandmother gently urges her to pull herself together. Grand-mère tells Scarlet that the men haven’t hurt her, but they “want information that [she] can’t give them” (300). Scarlet mentions the man who visited Grand-mère years ago and how he lived in the Eastern Commonwealth. However, Grand-mère tells Scarlet that the men “no longer want to know about the princess” (301). Instead, they want to know why their Lunar glamour isn’t working on Grand-mère. Scarlet notices little inconsistencies about her grandmother, and too late, she remembers that “Lunars [can] manipulate people’s thoughts and emotions” (302). Scarlet watches in horror as the imposter transforms into Wolf’s brother, Ran. The thaumaturge appears and announces that although “[Grand-mère’s] mind remains impenetrable” (302), they now know that her talent wasn’t passed on to Scarlet or her father. Scarlet tries to attack the thaumaturge, but he stops her by controlling her body with his glamour.
