Together, hand in hand, Sol and I closed our eyes.

They had silenced the surface.

They had muted the roar.

But they had not cut the roots.

I reached down—not outward.

Down.

Past skin.

Past muscle.

Past the locked silence of my wolf.

Into the marrow.

Into the place where the ley lines did not hum politely—but burned.

Sol’s fingers tightened around mine as he followed the same descent. I felt him beside me—not as a dragon, not as fire—but as a gravitational force.

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   Home

    Aella POVThe tension in the hospital wing slowly eased after the discussion about heirs.Not completely.The weight of it still lingered in the room, heavy and thoughtful, but for the first time since discovering the third baby, everyone looked less afraid and more… careful.Beatriz focused back on the monitor, her expression returning fully to professional concentration as she adjusted the machine once more.The three heartbeats echoed steadily through the room.Strong.Alive.My hand remained over my stomach the entire time.I still couldn’t fully process it.Three babies.One hidden behind a magical barrier.And somehow, despite the panic trying to creep into my mind, hearing their heartbeats grounded me more than anything else had since arriving here.Beatriz finally leaned back slightly and exhaled.“Okay,” she said slowly. “The babies are fine.”The relief that hit me was immediate enough to make my eyes sting.Beside me, Sol visibly relaxed for the first time since she mention

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   No More Forgotten Children

    Aella POVThe silence lingering in the hospital wing felt heavier after Sol’s words.History repeating itself.The thought settled over everyone uneasily because none of us could deny it.Three kingdoms.Three children.Three expectations already beginning to form before they were even born.Then—Queen Silveira laughed.Not mockingly.Softly.Almost fondly.The healer Queen stepped closer to the bed, silver robes flowing around her as she looked between Sol and me with an expression that carried centuries of memory.“There were four children in total,” she said calmly.The room stilled immediately.“Elias was the fourth.”Something tightened painfully in my chest.Queen Silveira sighed softly.“The only one not given an automatic kingdom,” she continued. “Even as he lived within the sanctuary, he held no control over it.”The words landed heavily.Because suddenly—I understood.Not just the cruelty Elias suffered.The isolation.The feeling of standing beside greatness while never t

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   History repeats

    Aella POVThe room had not recovered from the revelation of the third child when the air shifted again.Power rippled softly through the hospital wing.Then—All three Queens materialized.The healer Queen stood closest to me, her silver eyes still fixed on my stomach with visible concern and fascination. Queen Alors appeared calmer, though I could see the tension hidden beneath her composed expression.The central Queen, however—Looked emotional.Not fearful.Hopeful.Her gaze locked onto the monitor displaying the three heartbeats, and for a brief moment she looked centuries younger.Order stepped forward slowly, his attention focused entirely on the screen.The monitor pulsed softly.Three heartbeats echoed through the room.Steady.Alive.“One heir for each kingdom,” Order said quietly.Silence followed.The weight of the statement settled heavily over everyone present.“This is more than we ever thought possible,” he continued.Chaos laughed immediately.Bright.Delighted.“Oh,

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   Surprises

    Aella POVThe room remained silent except for the sound of the heartbeats echoing softly through the monitors.Fast.Slow.Alive.I couldn’t stop staring at the screen.Neither could Sol.Something in my chest had completely unraveled the moment I heard them for the first time. The fear, the pressure, the endless responsibilities waiting outside these walls—None of it mattered for those few seconds.Only them.Only our children.Beatriz, however, suddenly frowned.Not lightly.Deeply.The kind of expression doctors made right before delivering terrible news.My stomach tightened immediately.“What?” Sol asked sharply beside me.Beatriz looked between us slowly.Then blinked.“Wait,” she said carefully. “When exactly were you planning on informing me that you were pregnant with triplets?”Silence.Complete silence.I felt my entire body go cold.“What?”Beatriz stared at us.“You’re having triplets.”Sol paled instantly beside me.Actually paled.I turned toward him so fast I nearly s

    Aella POVThe moment Beatriz finished speaking, the castle reacted.Glowing arrows appeared on the floor instantly, bright silver lines forming across the polished stone before extending down one of the hallways.Pamela jumped.“Oh come on,” she complained. “Why does the castle keep doing that?”Chaos laughed loudly beside us.“Because it enjoys being dramatic.”The arrows pulsed again as if offended by the delay.Chaos pointed toward them with a grin.“You should probably follow those.”Marcus sighed deeply. “I miss normal buildings.”“There is no such thing anymore,” Pamela informed him gravely before immediately following the arrows.The rest of us moved after her.The castle corridors shifted subtly as we walked, walls widening and lights brightening the farther we advanced. The sanctuary itself seemed eager now, almost excited, guiding us deeper inside its structure.Then the hallway opened.I stopped.Because what waited beyond looked unmistakably like a hospital wing.Not ancie

  • Bankrupting the Alpha: Crowned by the Dragon King   Magical existential crisis

    Chapter — The Mark of the SanctuaryAella POV“Get in line,” Sol said calmly.The authority in his voice made everyone actually obey immediately.Marcus moved first, guiding Beatriz forward while Pamela remained behind him, still looking equal parts nervous and fascinated by everything happening around her.The clearing had changed again.The sanctuary itself seemed alert now, awake in a way it had not been before. The flowers shimmered brighter, the air carried visible traces of light drifting lazily around us, and the portal behind me pulsed steadily with silver-blue energy.Sol stood at the center of it all.Steady.Grounded.Powerful.He looked toward Beatriz first.“You’re first.”Beatriz narrowed her eyes slightly. “I’m beginning to question every decision that led me here.”Chaos grinned immediately. “That means you’re adapting wonderfully.”She ignored him completely and stepped in front of Sol.To my surprise, Sol gently took both her hands in his.The moment they touched—Po

    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

    Two months had passed since the cafeteria incident, and the hierarchy of the Imperial Tower had shifted permanently. Amelie had leaned fully into her "victim" persona, limping through the halls and wearing silk scarves to hide bruises that had long since healed. She whispered to anyone who would li

    The arena was a theater of carnage. Maxwell stood on the sands, his chest heaving, his wolf pushing so hard against his skin that his eyes were a constant, unstable amber. Sol stood opposite him, calm and immovable. Before the first blow was struck, Pamela stepped onto the lower ridge of the stand

    The middle of the day was a grueling marathon of mental gymnastics. Finance Class was a joke; I ended up correcting the professor's tax-haven models while Sol watched with a smirk that said he’d already moved his gold to my recommended accounts. Theater was even more surreal—the "Acting Method" was
