The beloved Crooked Kingdom was very open-ended for us readers, but one thing was largely (almost unanimously) agreed on- Kaz and Inej ended up together, because love. Slowly but surely. They work together to work through their trauma (not completely, obviously). Inej doesn't just wait for Kaz, she waits with him. But her arrow has aim, after all. She is a slaver hunter, her name uttered in feared tones by the slavers. But she always comes back to Ketterdam. Home. Inej receives help from Kaz when needed (among other things), and has stayed close to Jesper, Wylan, and the feisty Nina. Anyways, this is about them.
I desperately tried to keep everyone in character! I've never really done anything on Wattpad, so with that.... ENJOY!

Maud had a lot to achieve and a lot of people to disappoint. She was working hard as Medical student, until she just couldn't bear it anymore, so she gave up. Leaving university behind, she focused on getting money: she sang, she dance and, above it all, she saved; all for the reason that she wanted to pay someone to find anything foul about her older sister's soon-to-be-husband, a man too old for her and two of her friends that went missing far too many years ago.
And she finds someone who knows all the secrets of Kerch. Kaz Brekker - though she knows him by another name. Kaz Rietveld, her childhood friend, the one she was looking for.
And she just can't understand how that boy she knew became the monster he says he is.
