The chain of moonlight cut into Sera’s throat. Her body arched against it, every muscle straining as the glowing links dug into her skin.

The white-silver light hissed where it touched her, searing like acid. Her breath came in ragged gasps, each one shorter than the last.

Adrien heard the thin whimper she made and it tore something inside his chest. He drove himself forward through the storm of force radiating from Liora, one step at a time, knees scraping bloody against the fractured stones.

His fingers closed around the hilt of his sword again. “Liora!” he roared, voice raw. “Look at me. You know who I am.”

For a heartbeat, the storm of her power slackened as the girl’s eyes shifted toward him. The chain eased just enough for Sera to draw in a broken breath. Then the Dominion surged back and the chain pulled tighter.

Zayn staggered to his feet, blood running down the side of his face. He had one dagger left. It was black-bladed, etched with runes that pulsed like dying embers.

  • ASHES OF THE LUNA QUEEN   Chapter 251 - Jagged Crown

    Sera’s fingernails shredded as she clung to the jagged lip of the splintered rock. The slab tilted another inch, stones grinding loose and rattling into the black chasm.The air howled upward from the abyss, smelling of iron and burnt ozone. Every breath Sera took felt like swallowing knives. She risked a glance down.The void churned like a whirlpool of midnight. Hands, long, thin, and slick as oil, rose out of it by the dozen, their fingers curling in slow, hungry gestures. They didn’t claw. They waited.And every one of those black hands was fixed on the white-silver sphere clutched against her heart. “Give it to me…” the abyss whispered, its voice brushing her ear like a breath.“The key belongs in the lock…”The rock beneath her cracked again. One more heartbeat and it would tear free completely. Adrien crouched on the far edge of the gap.His arm was outstretched, the blue lightning around his wrist arcing wildly as the crumbling ground refused to hold him steady. “Sera!” His vo

    Sera’s fingertips brushed the edge of the white-silver sphere, and the darkness beneath it came alive. It was not a void. It was a mouth.A ring of jagged obsidian teeth snapped shut where her hand had been a heartbeat earlier. She jerked back, scraping her palm and smearing blood across the air as she fell to one knee.The white-silver sphere trembled in place, flickering like a candle in a storm. Beneath it, the new darkness spoke again. Its voice was not a sound but a pressure, pushing into bone and thought.“Child of moon-fire, every cage needs a lock. Break the lock… and the cage breaks with it.”The black threads lashed out. One coiled around Sera’s ankle and yanked her off the rising column of roots. She slammed hard against the broken stone platform below, knocking the breath from her lungs.The pull toward the hollow core grew stronger, like the whole world was being drained down a whirlpool. Fragments of rock tumbled past her into the crack.Screams, shadow-spawn and human a

    The shadow-cord struck for Sera’s chest like a living spear. She twisted sideways at the last possible instant.The black-violet tendril ripped across her ribs instead of piercing her heart.Pain flared white-hot and the smell of burned flesh filled her nostrils as she rolled away and came up on one knee. Her silver light wavered but did not die. She forced her breath steady.If it roots in me, there’s no pulling it out. I can’t let it touch my heart. The Dominion laughed through Liora’s lips, a sound layered and terrible. “Even your defiance tastes like fuel. Every strike you resist makes my roots deeper.”Adrien was still bound by three cords. One of them had crawled up the side of his neck to his jaw. A bruise-colored vein glowed beneath his skin.His fists clenched, blue sparks guttering between his fingers as he fought not to let it reach his mind. “Sera” he rasped, “cut… it… now…”Zayn, still on his fragment of rock, bled from one ear but kept up a rasped chant. His free hand sk

    The instant the second tether sprouted from Adrien’s chest, the air itself seemed to scream. A deep, subsonic wail reverberated through the shattered realm, shaking every fragment of floating land.The golem faltered for a moment as fissures opened across its body. Cracks lanced through the distant spire as if the tether that anchored the realms had been disturbed. Sera froze.Her heart thundered so hard it hurt to breathe. “No…” she whispered.“I won’t lose him. I can’t.”The black-violet cord linking Adrien to the spire pulsed like a heartbeat. Every pulse dimmed the silver light in his eyes and made the shadows around Liora’s form grow denser.Adrien’s teeth were clenched. His body arched against the dark tendrils that coiled up his arms and around his throat. Blue sparks flared briefly from his palms as if his own power was fighting back, but the sparks guttered each time the tether throbbed.“Get… back…!” he gasped at Sera.“It’s—pulling—me—inside—”Sera ignored him and charged,

    The world went white. It wasn’t light the way sunlight is light. It was the blinding, depthless kind that burned the outline of every stone, every person, every heartbeat out of existence.Sera felt as though she had fallen into the core of a star. Her skin prickled with cold and heat at the same time. Her ears rang with silence. Then the white receded, And she realized the ground beneath her was gone.She was falling. All around her, pieces of the realm, jagged slabs of earth, shattered pillars, uprooted trees, drifted and tumbled as if the world had become an ocean with no up or down.The sky was a whirl of black and violet. In the distance the spire rose, impossibly tall, and at its peak, Liora hovered like a dark moon.Adrien caught Sera by the wrist and yanked her toward a drifting slab of stone. They landed hard on the rough surface, bruised but alive. Zayn landed beside them a heartbeat later, panting.“She’s ripped the axis out of the realm,” Zayn rasped, looking around.“Grav
