CHAPTER TWO - 'WHAT'S WORTH A MILLION'

The Crow Club thrummed with heat and wagers, smoke curling in lazy rings toward the stained rafters. Men shouted over card games and clinked glasses of Razgut, but Jesper Fahey had already won two rounds and the table's attention.

An older man leaned forward, eyes too sharp for someone pretending to be drunk. "You take Zemeni coin, yes?" he said, flipping one across the table to the dealer.

Jesper caught it mid-air with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "Let me see that," he said, tossing it once in his palm. "The Lucky Nine up the block's been crawling with knockoffs lately. Looks right, feels wrong." He weighed it, tapped it against the edge of the table. "Real Zemeni coin? Takes a bullet." He winked. "But the knockoffs?"

With one smooth movement, Jesper flipped the coin in the air and drew his pistol. One shot. A crack of sound, and the coin fell in two smoking pieces.

"Busted."

The old man's face twisted. "What does that prove—hey, wait! What are you—get off me!" The bouncers dragged him away, still shouting. Jesper reached for the rest of the pot, but a cane struck the edge of the table.

Jesper froze. Kaz Brekker stood there, gloved hand resting lightly on the crow's head cane.

"No loud noises at the table, Jesper. You'll scare off the pigeons."

Jesper gave a sheepish smile. "Wouldn't want that, boss."

Kaz raised a brow. "Shouldn't you be on the door?"

"Yeah, right away, boss."

Before he could leave, Rotty appeared beside them, sweat on his brow. "Early for action, innit, Kaz?"

Kaz didn't turn. "What do you want, Rotty?"

"Someone lifted a DeKappel from a merch's estate last month. Disappeared clean."

Kaz blinked, finally giving him his full attention. "Is that so?"

"It's a painting, landscape of Ravka. The Fold. Oil on parchment."

"I know who DeKappel is."

Rotty shrugged. "He don't paint nudes, so I never cared."

Kaz narrowed his eyes. "Get to it, Rotty."

Rotty pulled out a folded parchment and held up a tiny replica of the painting. "Worth something like a hundred thousand kruge. Whoever took it got past four roving guards, high fences, a padlocked door, and a security system designed by one of them Grisha witches."

"Fabrikator," Kaz corrected.

"Whatever. Either it was a crew job... or a ghost."

Kaz's gaze sharpened. "Why does this concern me?"

"I've got a buyer lined up. Legit kruge. So if you hear a whisper—"

"Who can hear a whisper in here?" Kaz murmured, and turned away.

Upstairs, in his office, Kaz locked the door and approached the vanity, peeling off his gloves. He stood still, hands exposed, staring at the DeKappel leaning against the far wall.

Behind him, the shadows shifted.

"Inej," he said without looking. "What do you have for me tonight?"

"A lead on a job. A big one." Her voice was quiet. Certain. "Enough money to change lives."

Kaz scoffed. "In the Barrel, it doesn't take much."

"A million kruge."

Kaz turned. "What's the name?"

"Dreesen. A merch with deep pockets and darker dealings. He's hiring a crew. Wants them to cross the Fold and retrieve something."

"The Fold." Kaz's eyes flickered. "Of course certain death costs a million."

"He didn't say what he wants retrieved," Inej added.

"He doesn't know. Yelena might."

"He's taking meetings tonight. Starting at midnight. He brought someone in from a ship. Took the long way back to his estate to avoid attention. I'd have followed, but—"

"Private security?"

She nodded. "A Zemeni man. Name's Tendo."

Kaz frowned. "Pekka Rollins knows him. Which means I've got no leverage. But Pekka might."

Later that night, Jesper leaned against the table, fingers drumming.

"Here's what I don't get," he said.

Inej sighed. "We're going to be here all night."

"Rude," Jesper shot back. "Why haven't they tried going under the Fold? Dig a tunnel."

"They tried that," Kaz said. "Over a century ago."

Jesper raised a brow. "And?"

Kaz's voice was low. "Something heard them digging."

A voice cut in from the shadows. "Not something. Volcra."

Yelena stepped into the light, black coat sweeping behind her. She moved like a shadow stepping into form, settling into the seat beside Jesper.

Jesper blinked. "So it was made by that crazy Grisha, what's his name..."

"The Black Heretic," Yelena said smoothly.

"Right! The one who controls shadow. They've got one now, don't they? That general Kirigan?"

Inej raised an eyebrow. "Your point?"

Jesper shrugged. "If one of his kind made it, can't he unmake it?"

Inej's voice was cool. "Have you ever put out fire by adding more fire?"

Jesper opened his mouth, then paused. "...then what's the opposite?"

Yelena answered softly. "A Sun Summoner."

Jesper grinned. "Right. One of those."

Kaz shook his head. "Doesn't exist."

Yelena laughed quietly. "You don't believe in saints, Brekker?"

Inej's voice was calm. "Doesn't exist yet."

Kaz paced. "Dreesen comes into town, doesn't waste a minute. Sends out word for a crew. Offers a fortune, but doesn't say what the target is. Heavy? Large? Maybe he doesn't know."

"We can let this one go, Kaz," Inej said.

Jesper stretched. "Sounds like a trap anyway."

Yelena leaned forward. "A trap would sound easy. This is something else. A million kruge, and he's sending them on a death march. No one crosses the Fold and makes it out alive." She shifted uncomfortably on her seat.

A Dreg burst in, breathless. "Boss! We intercepted a note from Dreesen."

Kaz turned. "Did you now?"

"It's for the owner of the Orchid. Says they require the services of a Heartrender. Tonight."

Kaz's eyes narrowed. "A Heartrender? Why?"

"Doesn't say. Just that they need one before midnight."

Kaz's voice was ice. "You don't bring a Heartrender unless someone doesn't want to talk." He turned to the others. "That's how we get the job. We bring Dreesen a Heartrender before anyone else."

A pause.

The Dreg coughed. "Boss, one problem. Pekka Rollins knows too."

Kaz's face darkened. "Pekka Rollins."

Without another word, he grabbed his cane and vanished into the night.

—————————————————————————————

cinnamon girl

The room was filled with people, laughing, talking and enjoying themselves. She moved a dirty blonde strip of her hair from her face and looked around. This was all familiar in a new way. A  way she has never been in. Maybe the punishment to her sins aren’t that bad if this is it. She took a glass of wine and sipped it slowly taking in the details of the room. The music changed into a slow one and she noticed people getting into couples, women having one of their hands on the shoulders of men and the other in their upper arm.  

“Excuse-me, ma’am” she heard a masculine voice next to her. She turned to look at a man, atleast 4 inches taller than her, his brown hair slicked back neatly smiling at her.

“May I help you,” she responded back in the best “elegant” voice she could. This new cover has been quite the task for her, as being an elegant woman was the exact opposite she was told to do her whole life.

“It would quite please me if I could have this dance with you,” he told her, raising his hand, asking for her permission.

“Oh, that’s sweet of you, but i’ve never danced before,” she said him her truth as her lips went into a thin line.

“Well, that will have to change tonight,” he smiled and took her hand in his and placed her other one in her shoulder as he slowly led her to the dance floor.

“Oh well, as long as you dont charge me for the damage i cause in your legs,” she shrugged as she gave a playful smile and let him lead her.

Now, who would not love such a punishment. It was true that she had never danced before, she never had the chance. She doubts most Grisha gets the chance to, afterall they grow up being taught to protect and fight. She smiled at where she was now but soon it had to be ruined as people heard screams outside the room. The music muffled the noise but it was still audible to hear them.

She froze as she looked at outside of the building. It was getting darker and darker every second and it could only mean one thing.

He was back.

Soon, the room darkened and a figure came through the shadows. Everyone knew who it was, it was The Darkling. The same man who destructed many families of people in the very same room. Of hers too.

She looked at his arising form with mixed emotions in her eyes. He came out of the dark and searched around the room when his eyes finally met hers. His grey orbs then skimmed to her hands that were on top of the man next to her. Her quick instinct was to take them off him making the man responsible for her reactions smirk. He looked around once more and swiftly moved his hands, she realised what he was doing and screamed, “No.” as her eyes widened.

In a swift move, her hands moved in a V shape and a shield arise from her hands shielding the whole room from his dark presence. He was moved back in a gush of air due to the excess use of power as his hands shielded his face.  He looked back at her and said,

“This is the only way to do it, remove the shield and we shall disappear.” His statement rang through her ears as she fumed at him. He had the audacity to do this just after killing millions and making her having to disguise herself for his consequences.

“I can erase their memory of our presence.” She stated as she looked into his eyes. His eyes searched hers in amusement and soon his lips broke into a playful yet proud smile as he questioned,

“You can do that now, huh? Well the make it fast, we’ve got places to be and things to discuss.”

She looked at him one last time before moving her hands, as green light broke out of her palms, her eyes emitting a bright shade of green. Soon, everyone in the room fell down into a slumber except for herself and the dark presence across her. He took a look around him as he strolled closer to her,

“What did you do,” he asked looking into her eyes as he came closer than he should but it wasn’t new for her.

“A litte trick that i learned a few weeks ago,” she told him looking back at his eyes. He look at her and sighed.

He took a strand of her hair falling on her face and said,

“That’s not what i asked. What did u do to your hair.”

Realisation swimmed in her eyes and she caught his arm and snatched it away from her face, from her now blonde hair.

“A consequence of your actions.” She stated glaring at his eyes. His eyes moved as he looked at hers and he stepped back,

“You look absolutely gorgeous, but put my colour back on” He whispered before starting to move towards “the places they have to be”.

She looked at his walking figure and remembered the pitch black hair she once had. Something about it always made him feel superior, one of the reasons she loved having to colour her hair to disguise herself. Especially when she could simply do it and blame it on him.

She slowly strolled behind him forgetting the life she had just a few minutes earlier. What else could be done for he is here now.

As soon as she skipped to his pace, his hands moved in a swift motion as darkness engulfed them both. They both were now in a place that looked like a hut but with better interior. She looked out the window and say darkness and shadows of creatures walking around, screeching and flying.  She realised where they were and her voice was caught in her throat. If her little trick was amazing this was terrific, both in a huge and a bad way.

“Who was it.” She turned to him, her eyes confused as she watched him remove his coat.

“Who’s who.” She questioned back at him as her brows formed into a frown. He looked up at her and murmured slowly, “The guy you were with.” Her gaze turned more confused at his sudden interest.

“A gentleman who was willing to teach me how to slow dance,” she said.

“Did you enjoy it?” He asked, his lips curling into a teasing smile.

“Not long enough for me to actually learn it, because you just had to interrupt,” she said coldly to him.

He chuckled at her as his head went low and back again to looking at her.

“Well why don’t you spend some more time with him for a while,” he asked at her smiling.

She frowned more in confusion as he continued,

“Surely, you can still get into you fantasy lands right.” he said.

She looked down for a moment and realised he was referring to her ability to reimagine realities. She can imagine herself in clouds while simply sitting in her bed. She slowly looked up at him and saw his hand raised towards her. She hesitated for a minute but her heart did not as her hand reached on top of his palm. Within the blink of her eye, they were outside among the monsters he created out of shadows. He noticed at her wary look and said,

“They will be of no disturbance,” She turned to look at him and asked, “what about the musics.”

He smiled, as his other hand removed the wooden stick that had her hair in a neat bun, making her hair flow down, like she usually had her hair when it was black and placed his hand on her hips bringing her closer as he whispered,

“Why don’t you bring the very same one you were listening to,” His eyes moved in a quick movement looking into hers, wanting to take in both her emerald ones.

war of hearts (acoustic)

She closed her eyes as he lowered his head, making both their foreheads to meet. Soon, slow piano flowed  into their ears and his legs started to lead both their legs.

“Come to me in the night hours

I will wait for you”

Never once did his eyes leave hers even when they were closed. She slowly opened her eyes and tried to put herself into the fantasy land where the very same man she owns a deep hatred in her heart would be that man that managed to steal her eyes even if it’s only for seconds.

“Thoughts of you consume”

But it was not happening. She couldn’t take her eyes off of him no matter how much she tried.  She couldn’t go back to that ball, to that man. They both remained dancing, even though surrounded by darkness and monsters they were still captivated into each other’s souls, their eyes being the doorway…

“I can’t help but love you,

even though I try not to”

Her eyes skimmed through the scars in his face, an aftermath. He was in pain, she could see it. His head was crippling in pain, a pain as a consequence of consumption of power beyond one should hold. A pain that can only be cured by more absorption of the very same darkness he holds.

“Stay with me, a little longer”

She was scared of what she was doing while he was fooled that she was being in fantasies of another man while dancing with him. The eyes of her held empathy, he convinced himself it was not for him and that she wasn’t looking at him. But something in his heart craved for the look in her eyes, the eyes that held so much light in them, ironic to what he was.

“Oh, oh, oh”

As every second passed, his pain suppressed through the music. For a second he thought it was the music healing it but when he looked at her glowing eyes, he realised it was her doing. Unconsciously, she was holding his pain back which made him realise she wasn’t in her fantasies and was very much present in the moment with him. “What did you do.” He asked her, as his pain was nothing but a memory now.

“A consequence of my mistake,” she stated.

“I can’t help but love you, even though I try not to”

His walls broke, as his eyes opened the doorway and gave a peek of his soul to her. The shattered one, terribly shattered than his face. He realised that he had let his guard down and regained his composure, stopping his legs from moving to the music. Their eyes, never leaving each others was now holding an intense look. A stubborn one, an interaction they would have never imagined with each other.

Just for once, he craved her. He craved her eyes to look at him the same way, their intertwined hands to be stitched together. He craved for him to be able to touch more of her and for the first time he was greedy for something that wasn’t power and it made him fear for what shall come next. For what she was made of.

“I can’t help but want oceans to part

Because i’m overcome this war of hearts”

[justachaoticreader]

I'm sorry but if you like the Darkling you're not allowed to like any other male character in SAB/SOC bc Kaz saved Inej from the fate that the Darkling sentenced Genya to. Nikolai stood up for Genya and sided with and protected her over his own family. Matthias would never. Jesper would never. Wylan would never.

There are no excuses for liking the Darkling.

Seperate the actor from the character.
