Thorne POV

“I don’t understand, what do you mean by that?” I asked the sorcerer, confusion etched into my face.

“That’s what the moon goddess is telling me. The words weren’t clear earlier, but I can hear it very well now. If care isn’t taken, the situation would get very worse.” She answered.

The frown on my face deepened, “A lot of goods are transported in and out of the kingdom on a daily basis, how do I know what exactly they’re talking about then? Where do I start investigating from? If t

  • Becoming The Werewolf Queen    Chapter 101

    Esmeralda’s POVThe borderlands did not look the same when we came back.What used to be tents and rough wood had changed.Stone walls were rising everywhere.Men were carrying blocks. Wolves were hauling timber. Smoke rose from fresh fires where builders worked day and night.A city was being born.I slowed my horse and stared.For a moment I could hardly believe it.Right in the center stood the Great Hall.Its walls were tall and wide, made from heavy gray stone. The roof was still missing, but the shape of the building was already clear. A huge circular space meant to hold thousands.Light poured into it from every side.Not dark like the temples in the south.Open.Alive.Hopeful.When we rode through the gates, people saw us.At first there was silence.Then someone shouted.“Alpha!”Another voice followed.“The Queen!”Suddenly the entire place erupted.They were cheering.Not just Royalists.Not just rogues.Everyone.Their voices mixed together until the sound filled the whol

    Esmeralda's POVThe water was not just cold, It was warm a bit.It felt like a liquid silver was being poured into my veins, making me feel like I was hurnted by the black poison and burning it out. I screamed, but the sound was swallowed by the depths. I was sinking, the surface of the pool got further and further away until it was just a tiny pinprick of light. Let it go, I heard a voice saying in the depths. It was not the shadow-woman. This voice was old, ancient, like the shifting of tectonic plates. The pain, the betrayal, the crown. Let it all go, or you will drown in the weight of it. I began to see images of my life flash before me. Thorne’s sneer as he rejected me. The sound of the sword falling on my father’s neck. The cold nights in the forest when I thought I wouldn't survive. Each memory was a stone, dragging me deeper. I saw Aria laughing as she wore my dress. I saw the villagers' burned homes. I saw the blood on my own hands. "I can't," I gasped, the silver wa

    Esmeralda's POVThe southern marshes are like a dream that you cannot wake up from. The air is thick with water. It smells like something is rotting. Every time my horse takes a step it sounds like it is sinking into the mud.I sat in front of Killian on his warhorse. He is holding me tightly. I can feel his heart beating fast against my back. He does not care that the other people are watching. He does not care what they think. He just wants to make sure I am safe."Just a little further Esme " he says softly. "We are at the trees."I do not say anything. I can feel something bad happening inside me. The black lines on my arm are getting worse. They are like a map of all the things that are happening to me. I can feel them pulsing with a beat. It is like the heartbeat of the marsh. The light inside me is going away. It is like trying to light a match in the rain.We get to a spot near an old tree. Killian helps me down from the horse. He is very gentle. When my feet touch the ground

    Esmeralda POVThe man with scars. It was a nasty sound. It echoed through the burned village. He did not look like a man who was scared of a Queen. He looked like a man who was waiting for a reason to kill someone."A debt?" he said, making fun of me. "The only debt in this land is the one you owe for taking a throne that's not yours. Dominic was a man. You are a girl playing with things you do not understand.""Dominic was a parasite" I said, my voice low and angry.” If you loved him so much I would be happy to send you to join him."Lily and Marcus moved beside me. The air was thick with the smell of pine and anger. The five warriors behind the leader also moved, their mean faces filling the village."Do not kill the girl yet " the leader told his men. "I want her to watch while we hurt her friends. I want her to see what happens to those who follow a Queen."He jumped at me.I did not move. I did not need to. The power of the First Mother was inside me making my movements fast. Whe

    Esmeralda's POV The shadow creature hit me like a wall of ice. I was thrown backward. My head cracked against the stone floor. Stars danced in my vision and the light inside me flickered for a second. The coldness of the womans aura was overwhelming."Esme!" Killians voice was loud.I saw him shift into a black wolf and attack the hooded figures.. They were like smoke and his claws passed right through them.The woman stood over me. Her eyes were pits and they seemed to be swirling with a bad energy. "You thought you could just walk away from the darkness?" she hissed. "You took the crown. You didn't pay the price. Power demands a sacrifice, Esmeralda. If you won't give your soul I'll take your life."She raised her hand. A spear of black ice appeared. She swung it down toward my chest. I rolled out of the way in time and the spear shattered the stone where my heart had been.I got up. The violet light surged to my hands. I blasted her. She didn't fly back. She absorbed the light an

  • Becoming The Werewolf Queen    Chapter 96

    Esmeralda's POV The Royal City was already so different when I returned from the northern parks. It wasn’t even longer felt like a thick, suffocating shroud of ancient secrets. Instead of that it felt thin, expectant, like a held breath. I rode through the gates with Lily and one of the small guard, the people didn’t just scramble away in terror. They paused. They watched. Some even bowed, not out of the frantic fear I had seen at my coronation, but with a hesitant, curious respect.I felt different this time, too. The violet light didn’t scream fire in my veins anymore. It was a low, steady hum, like the purr of a sleeping predator. Elara had been right; the Cave of Whispers hadn't taken the power away, but it had stripped away the jagged edges of my rage. I was still the Queen, but I felt like Esmeralda again."You look... calmer," Lily said, her horse pulling up beside mine. She was looking at me closely, her eyes were scanning for any sign of the "First Mother" taking control."
