Sequel to The Red Queen, set five years after the original. After Ruby's failed shot at revenge, the Red Queen has taken Remnant by storm. With the world hunting down the infamous Red Queen of Grimm, will Ruby and her new allies make this world their own? Or will the Queen be dethroned once and for all?

A darker, more twisted version of Ruby. A version that lusts for power and control and violence and is nearly soulless. Heartbreak at every turn. Contains lots of plot and gratuitous violence. Updated: 11/15/15 - Chapter 64

Betrayed by the other students in her grade, abandoned by her friends, and left to die at their very hands, Ruby must struggle to live and find her vengeance.
