The CPA give them refuge as well while they work with Phoenix to convince the Royal Council to allow Atlanta to live. Unaware Atlanta knows she's alive, Jensine moves forward to embed herself into The Superior Order to follow through with her promise to Phoenix.

In the process, they discover Pepper's horrible past; shedding light on the army Valencia has been building for years. Will Atlanta and Grayson survive the changes their bodies are going through? If they do, will they be safe from The Great Order's Royal Guard?
