Part 3, Chapter 38 Summary

Content Warning: This section of the guide describes sexual content.

Envy and Camilla emerge from Golath’s lair in Bloodwood Forest. As they walk through the forest toward Envy’s domain, he reflects on Golath’s warnings. One of them pointedly cautioned him against a secret Camilla is hiding. Camilla interrupts his thoughts to ask who Prometheus is. Envy tells her never to say that name aloud again, as it is the true name of the vampire prince, and he is always listening. 

When Camilla mentions Prometheus’s common name, Zarus, Envy once again grows suspicious of her identity and questions why she knows the name. When she does not answer, Envy uses his sin to draw her into a memory of him happening upon Alexei and Vittoria, the Goddess of Death, having sex. To stoke her envy, he shows Camilla how Vittoria tried to seduce him even while in the act with Alexei. 

His scheme is successful, but Camilla draws him into her own memory of the night she had sex with a man. Their mutual jealousy drives them to nearly have sex in the forest. They are interrupted when one of Zarus’s spies appears and steals Camilla.
