What happens when I play Secret Alliances with the invest cost paid on my opponent's turn? Do I get it back at the end of their turn or at the end of my next turn?
Relevant Text:
Invest: Before you draw cards at the end of the turn, put this card into your hand from the discard pile. Political Open: Permanently give your target Courtier Expendable and the trait, "After another player's action targets this card, gain 1 Honor."

The trigger for Secret Alliances returning to your hand is drawing cards at the end of the turn.
This will happen on your turn, but will only happen on your opponent's turn if an effect allows you to draw (such as attaching Ashigaru Archers). Normally the Invest effect will not occur on your opponent's turn.
