Beast Billionaire Claim CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT: The Sovereign's Choice
The Hall of Silent Flames was older than any kingdom, older than any god the world still remembered. Its walls bore no banners, no sigils—only smooth black stone, carved so finely it caught no dust, etched with firelight that had never been lit by mortal hands. The air here had weight, as if each breath cost a memory.Elira stood at its center, her boots whispering against the stone. The First Light was here.She had felt it before—distant and ancient, a whisper in the rift’s heart—but here, its presence was unbearable. It was not warmth, not cold, but the sense that everything she was could be unmade in a thought and rebuilt into something else entirely.A voice came, not in sound, but in truth: Child of the Starborn. You stand where choice is born.The flames along the walls shifted, no longer orange or gold, but every color she had ever seen and many she had not—blues so deep they seemed to pull her inward, reds that tasted of metal, silvers that rang like struck glass. They wove a
Beast Billionaire Claim CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN: Veilwalkers
The air tasted like frost and burnt sage.Zara stood at the edge of the shattered courtyard, moonlight spilling over the stones in silver rivers. The night was too still, the kind of silence that meant something was listening.Maxim moved beside her, tall and sharp against the glow, his coat brushing her arm. “They’re here,” he murmured, voice low, as if sound itself might wake something ancient.She didn’t have to ask how he knew. The Veil felt thinner here—threads of reality trembling like spider silk. Her witch blood prickled, sensing the breach before the first shadow crossed the archway.The Veilwalkers emerged in unison.Seven figures in cloaks of black glass, their faces hidden behind masks carved with symbols older than the moon. They didn’t walk so much as drift, the edges of their robes fraying into mist that curled and vanished in the air.One stepped forward, taller than the rest. The mask it wore was veined with cracks, glowing faintly from within, as though something tra
Beast Billionaire Claim CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX: The Flame That Waits
The first time Elira noticed it, she thought it was her imagination—just a stutter in the glow that lived behind her ribs. But then it happened again the next night, and the next after that.Kael’s flame—his presence, his essence—had always burned inside her with steady warmth. Now it flickered unpredictably, sometimes guttering so low she could barely feel it at all, sometimes flaring bright enough to make her gasp.She was in the Star Throne’s observatory when the latest shiver came. The glass floor reflected the constellations above and below, but her focus wasn’t on the stars. Her palm pressed flat to her sternum, chasing the irregular pulse of heat.“Elira,” Zara’s voice cut through the quiet. “You’re pale. What’s wrong?”“It’s him,” Elira murmured, still staring at her own reflection in the glass. “Kael’s flame—it’s… changing.”Zara approached, the hem of her dark coat whispering over the crystal floor. “Changing how?”“Like pieces of him are breaking off,” Elira said. “And they
Beast Billionaire Claim CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE: The Mirror Accord
The Hall of Seven Lights was never meant to hold so many worlds at once.The mirrored gateways shimmered along the marble walls, each an unbroken sheet of liquid glass. Beyond them—other skies, other continents, other versions of the same people who now stood in tense clusters beneath the vaulted ceiling. The air carried the hum of unstable magic, the kind that made even seasoned mages keep their hands close to their blades.Elira sat upon the Star Throne, the glow of her six flames casting her face in shifting gold. She did not look like a ruler born to the title—too young, too fierce, and too tired—but none in the chamber dared mistake her for anything less than sovereign.“Let them through,” she told the guards at the central archway.The doors opened, and the first of the mirror-versions entered. They came in pairs—a mirror captain from the Eastern Watch, his armor etched with strange constellations; a mirror healer whose eyes reflected silver instead of green; a mirror councilor
Beast Billionaire Claim CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR: Gods Do Not Leave Graves
The Wound had no name on any map. It was not a place so much as an absence—a raw gash in the world where nothing held shape, where the sky forgot to be blue and the earth forgot how to grow. It stretched in all directions and yet never seemed to move. And when Elira stepped into it, barefoot, silent, her feet brushing ground that shifted like breath, like memory, the world behind her simply ceased to exist.Zara and Ruby had searched for her for nearly two days before her trail vanished at the Wound’s edge. Ruby had begged the wind spirits for direction; Zara had traced the skies for star-ripples and unmade tracks. But Elira was already beyond reach, already falling inward, pulled not by logic or duty—but by a calling she hadn’t yet named.There was no wind here. No color. Even time stuttered like a skipped heartbeat.She walked as if sleepwalking, though her eyes were open. Each step deeper into the Wound was a shedding—of thought, identity, ego. Until only the flame remained. The on
Beast Billionaire Claim CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE: Ruby Against the Sky
The Vale was quieter than usual that dawn. Winds scraped along the high ridges with an anxious hush, as if the very sky was holding its breath. Ruby stood at the edge of the Storm Wall, eyes fixed on the churning expanse beyond. The clouds boiled with tension, as if they, too, had heard the whispers.A threat from within.She clutched the edge of her cloak tighter around her shoulders. Below her, in the newly raised barracks of the Guard, silence reigned—too quiet for a force sworn to protect Elira. She had spent the past week tracing rumors, catching fragments of conversation buried beneath compliance and politeness.A suggestion here. A question there.Could the Starborn be unbound forever?It had taken time. Too much time.She turned at the soft crunch of boots on gravel. Talin approached, his face pale, his uniform stiff with recent rain."It's true," he said. No preamble. Just those two words, heavy as stone.Ruby didn’t need to ask what he meant. She only nodded, feeling the ach
