SPOILER ALERT!

Jaedlyn was addicted to a generic medication called lorazepam, which is marketed under the brand name Ativan in the United States (and other brand names). Dominic and Violet overhear this while sneaking around in Crespin Abbey.

While it doesn't say for certain, these are possibly the same "little white pills" Dr. Chalsey was giving Jaedlyn in the first book. Lorazepam is used to treat anxiety, panic attacks, and insomnia. It is indeed a benzodiazepine, as Cullman Wallace wrote in the books, and Jaedlyn's seizure in the second book is not unlikely given an abrupt withdrawal from a high dosage.

How did Mrs Dantner get Jaedlyn to betray the others in Caged Flower book two?

SPOILER ALERT.Dr. Chalsey had been giving Jaedlyn those "little white pills" (later identified in Book Two to be lorazepam, also known under the brand name Ativan) to keep her sedated following the stoning of Kassandra in the Mansion courtyard and the failed escape attempt afterward. Jaedlyn's comment about the lorazepam at the time was, "Those pills, they keep me from thinking about things. I don't want to think about things. I don't want to think about what happened in the courtyard. I don't want to start crying again, because if I do, I don't think I'll be able to stop." Violet, horrified that she had become reliant on them, ordered her to stop taking them.It appeared Jaedlyn did stop taking the lorazepam prior to their escape from the Mansion, but as revealed in Book Two after the memorable garage ambush, Jaedlyn was still being fed the pills by Dr. Chalsey, who obviously had her addicted to them and was using them to control her. After catching Jaedlyn escaping in Mrs. Dantner's car, they had returned her to the Mansion and resumed feeding her lorazepam. Jaedlyn mentioned later that they withheld the pills to punish her, and used them to persuade her to send the e-mail to Violet and Dominic that would lure them into the Friendship's ambush in the garage.Jaedlyn, however, overcame the influence of the lorazepam, and in a moment of clear thought, threw the car keys she had taken back to Violet, enabling not only their escape, but hers as well.Jaedlyn's loyalties were confirmed, however, after she was left alone with car keys and two diazepam tablets while Violet and Dominic went in search of Kassandra at Crespin Abbey. Jaedlyn not only left the drugs alone, she appeared just in time to save all four of them.

Is Mrs Dantner in the Caged Flower series British?

As of the end of Caged Flower Book Two, we do not know Mrs. Dantner's ethnicity, only that she speaks in an accent that Violet can't place. In the first book, Violet initially thinks it is "British, perhaps."In Book Four, in a rather roundabout way, we learn of the source of Mrs. Dantner's strange accent, including an exact reference as to where it comes from, as well as how she became part of the Friendship.

Does Dominic have a last name in Caged Flower?

In Caged Flower, Dominic tells Violet in the Repository that he knows very little about his birth, and that he doesn't even know if he has a last name. This shocks Violet, who finds the idea of not having a surname "incomprehensible." But as of the end of the book, we still have no answer to this question.Without providing a spoiler, details about Dominic's early childhood and how he came to be with the Friendship are revealed in Book Two of the series. The answer to the question is found there, along with a few surprises.
