At the end of book one, when Stella chose Lucius, it set in motion a chain of events. Where does Lucius take Stella? What happens after she spends a day in the pool and goes back to her room? What scares her the most that day? When the time finally comes for the Christmas time Trial, where do they go? What is supposed to happen for the trial? Who gets to Stella first? What happens? When they finally leave the grounds, what does Stella say to Cal? What do Lucius and Sinclair have in the works? Who helps Stella? One night, Stella hears music and heads out to investigate it and finds Sinclair, Lucius, and Teddy playing together in the music room. What happens as their music playing time is winding down? On Christmas Day, what surprise is in store for Stella? It really made me smile when I read that scene. I agree with Stella, that Sinclair is lying about something, to her and to himself. His bedroom is clear proof of that. You're going to have to read this to find out what happens after Stella sneaks up to the 3rd floor one night to get answers to questions. Now why Sinclair says he has to win makes perfect sense!
