Dianna awakens in a mysterious cell, and her attempts to escape are futile. After two days, Liam arrives with Logan and Vincent, but their tense interaction is cut short by Neverra, Logan’s wife, and other celestial allies. They restrain Dianna with spelled handcuffs that drain her power. They interrogate Dianna, and she endures severe pain whenever her answers dissatisfy Liam. Despite this, she refuses to cooperate, even as they show her photos of herself with Gabby, which only solidifies her resolve. Dianna falls unconscious from exhaustion and pain.

Liam’s relentless questioning forces Dianna to relive the events leading to her capture. After Zekiel’s death, she confronted Kaden about his deception regarding The Hand, an organization she had believed was nothing more than a myth. Kaden, enraged by her actions, blamed her for jeopardizing his plans by killing a Hand member and warned that her actions had likely put Gabby in danger.

Determined to protect Gabby, Dianna insisted that she relocate to a safe house. However, Gabby resisted, arguing that living in constant fear and upheaval was no way to live.
