Just as Voren was about to let out the plan, she asked sincerely. "And what about Ravyn and Daisy?" Her voice cooling off a bit at their names, a flicker of old anger mixing with the warmth between them. "Right now, they don't see me as any kind of real threat. I'm still the ex-Luna who got walked all over. That's how they still picture me, and I need them to keep thinking that way, at least until the moon festival. I need that element of surprise on my side."
She let that sit there for a moment, the weight of it hanging between them like thick, charged air.
"The moment you announce us, everything changes. Ravyn will panic, Daisy will start scheming up new plans, and everything I've carefully crafted to drag all of Daisy's dirty shit out into the open gets messed up before it even gets started. Ravyn would find any excuse to shut it down. He'll do whatever it takes to protect her."
