The Academy was silent, the stone corridors lit only by the flickering glow of ancient torches and modern security beams. At precisely 22:00, the heavy iron doors of the Sovereign Training Chamber groaned open.

The air inside was different—colder, pressurized. Linus stood in the center of the massive, reinforced arena, his arms crossed over his chest. Sol was already there, stripped to his combat trousers, his bronze skin glistening under the gym’s halogen lights.

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   Blood and Boundaries

    Aella POVBy the time the last mutant fell, I was exhausted.Not the kind of exhaustion that came from paperwork.Not the kind that came from raising three impossible children.Battle exhaustion.The kind that settled into your bones.The kind that made every movement feel heavier.The battlefield was silent.At last.The Silver Pack still stood.The resort still stood.The people had survived.That should have been enough.But it wasn't.Because Elias would return.He always returned.I stood overlooking the rebuilt pack lands while healers moved among the wounded.The scent of smoke still lingered in the air.The ground remained scarred from the battle.Evidence of how close we had come to disaster.Again.Beside me, Sol remained quiet.Watching.Thinking.Planning.I knew that expression.He was already looking toward the next threat.The next battle.The next problem.The next way to protect everyone.And honestly?So was I.Because surviving wasn't enough anymore.We needed preve

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   Against the Timeline

    Aella POVThe dead should have stayed dead.Yet all around me, the battlefield moved.Mutants that had fallen minutes before dragged themselves back to their feet.Broken bones snapped into place.Torn flesh stitched itself together with shadow.Empty eyes glowed with corrupted darkness.The Silver Pack warriors who had survived the first assault stared in horror.Some stepped backward.Others tightened their grips on their weapons.Everyone understood the same thing.The battle wasn't over.It had just started.At the center of the carnage stood Elias.Calm.Composed.Almost amused.As though raising hundreds of dead monsters was nothing more than a casual inconvenience.The shadows around him moved like living creatures.Whispering.Crawling.Breathing.I hated him.Not because he was powerful.Not because he was dangerous.Because he kept choosing this.Again and again.Every chance he had to stop.Every chance he had to heal.Every chance he had to let go.And every time he chose

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   The Attack on Silver Pack

    Aella POVRunning a kingdom was somehow harder than fighting for one.At least during a battle, you knew who your enemy was.Paperwork was relentless.It never slept.Never surrendered.Never stopped multiplying.The Void had awakened thousands of citizens over the last few weeks, and every single one of them needed somewhere to live.Somewhere to work.Somewhere to belong.Hunter and I had spent days reviewing records, family histories, settlement claims, and land grants.The old ruling families had mostly disappeared.Some lines had died out entirely.Others had fractured beyond recognition.The Void needed new leadership.Not tyrants.Not figureheads.Administrators.People capable of rebuilding what had been lost.Unfortunately, that meant endless meetings.I was currently staring at a report detailing agricultural production when Hunter slid another file toward me."This one."I looked down.A woman named Helena Arcturus.Former settlement leader.Apparently she had organized and

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   Ghosts of the Past

    Aella POV The throne room had never been so productive. Which was honestly alarming. Dozens of reports had been organized. Territorial maps had been sorted. Population records had been updated. And somehow, despite being barely more than a baby, Althea had become the unofficial supervisor of the entire operation. The little girl sat in her high chair beside my desk. Tiny crown still perched on her head. Several maids were openly consulting her before making decisions. I had stopped questioning it. For the sake of my sanity. The Void seemed delighted. Chaos seemed delighted. Order seemed proud. The three of them together worried me deeply. I was reviewing a proposal for a new settlement when a familiar warmth brushed against the Bond. Sol. Before I could react, sunlight burst into existence in the middle of the throne room. The portal expanded. Golden. Bright. Warm. Home. I smiled immediately. Then froze. Because Sol wasn't alone. Queen Samantha stepped thro

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   The Princess of Paperwork

    Aella POV The silence on the Bond was glorious. Absolutely glorious. I could practically hear Sol trying to figure out how his supposedly sleeping daughter had somehow escaped the sanctuary, crossed realms, and established herself in my throne room. Finally, he spoke. Very carefully. Aella... I smiled. Sweetly. Dangerously. Yes, darling? Another pause. What exactly do you mean Althea is there? I looked toward the center of the throne room. Toward my daughter. My baby. The tiny girl wearing a crown almost larger than her head. Althea was currently supervising several maids who were sorting documents into organized piles. One maid moved a report. Althea immediately pointed at a different pile. The maid corrected herself. The tiny tyrant nodded approvingly. I felt a headache forming. Exactly what I said. Silence. Then confusion. ...What? She is here. More silence. Here where? I leaned back against my chair. Enjoying this entirely too much. In the Void. T

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   The Missing Princess

    Aella POV I finally lost. Not a battle. Not an argument. Not a political negotiation. Sleep. Sleep won. One moment I was reviewing reports about agricultural districts and settlement permits. The next— Nothing. Darkness. Peace. Silence. The kind of silence only exhaustion could bring. When I opened my eyes again, I wasn't in the throne room. I was in my bedroom. My actual bedroom. The one connected to the royal wing. The one I definitely hadn't walked to myself. I stared at the ceiling. Then sat up slowly. The blankets shifted. The pillows moved. Everything looked suspiciously comfortable. Someone had tucked me in. The realization made me narrow my eyes. Immediately. Then I noticed it. A familiar dark mass floating beside the bed. The Void. The ancient realm itself hovered awkwardly near the wall. Watching me. The moment I looked at it, the darkness shifted. Almost nervously. I blinked. The Void pulsed. Once. Twice. Then slowly pushed a tray towa

    Maxwell was gone. Truly gone.For a flickering second, a memory I had tried to bury surfaced. I remembered his laughter as a pup, high and bright. I remembered him rolling around in the dirt with Caleb and Jax, four children making a mess of the world. He used to help me in ways no one else dared,

    The announcement arrived via a royal scroll at breakfast: a Medieval Masquerade Gala. Attendance was mandatory for all towers. The King’s decree was clear—this wasn't just a party; it was a showcase of the hierarchy. "A group entrance," Marcus proposed, leaning back with a grin that was all sharp

    The transition from "Ascended Monarchs" to "starving shifters" happened remarkably fast. For hours, we were buried in vellum and leather. We moved through stacks of ancient scrolls, but it seemed the Great Library of the Queens had a sense of humor—or a very mundane side. We found "The Little Drag

    Samantha’s voice, though raspy, carried an ancient authority that made the room go still. She leaned forward, her violet eyes burning with a desperate warning. "The Altar of the First Flame is not just a pile of ruins," she whispered, her gaze darting between Sol and me. "It is an ancient legend,
