The marketplace unfolded before me like something out of a half-remembered dream—sunlight dripping through bright canopies, stalls bursting with colors so vivid they seemed to hum with life. The air was thick with the scent of spices, sweet and sharp, mingling with roasted nuts and fresh bread. Beneath my boots, the cobblestones were warm, and voices from every direction blended into a kind of music—laughter, haggling, the chatter of strangers.

Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen Epilogue
Third Person POV Five Years LaterA pack of ten children tore through the gardens of Eradrakor.Hatchlings, pups, witches, and hybrids—their small feet padded softly against the earth, and their melodic giggles filled the warm summer air. Leading the charge was Renata, the natural leader of every mischief, followed closely by her brother, Fenris. Even at five years old, Fenris moved with a gravity that suggested he already owned the world. He was, after all, the child of prophecy—the strongest creature ever born. The "Golden Boy" often received special treatment from the court, much to Mira’s lingering displeasure.Minka and Armina were only inches behind them, trailed by their cousins, Izabella and Isidora—the daughters of Marina and Gabriel. Behind them, the twin sons of Diana and James, Caleb and Luke, kept pace. The boys were naturally faster, but they shared a soul-deep connection with little Izy and Isy and intentionally slowed their stride just to let the girls win. Diana and
Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen Chapter 157: My Soul, My Queen, My Mate
Dorrin's POV I looked at the sleeping Mira, gently brushing her cheek with the tips of my fingers. I had been terrified that rejecting Draven would leave a deep, festering scar on her soul, but she had proven once again that she was a fighter. She was recovering faster than I ever dared to hope.Ever since we were little hatchlings, I knew that behind that shy, quiet facade lived a fierce and brave heart. I had always loved her; I thanked the Moon Goddess every day for pairing her with me, even if I had to share her with Alexander. At first, I had viewed him as a threat—a competitor for the heart of my love. But as time passed, I began to see him as a protector and additional support for our mate.She was ours. Over time, I learned to respect and understand Alexander; I even forgave him for the poor choices he made at the beginning of our journey. Since the day I marked him as well, I could feel his emotions rolling through our own bond. It wasn't a sexual pull, but something more so
Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen Chapter 156: The Queen’s Tribute
Mira’s POVRejecting Draven had left me feeling hollow. For weeks, I feared I would never be able to fill the void created by that severed bond.But as time passed, life moved forward. I was officially crowned as the Werewolf Queen, and my workload increased tenfold. I didn't train as obsessively anymore; instead, the quadruplets took up every spare second I wasn't dedicated to my royal duties.Marina, Diana, and I were in the nursery, watching the babies play.“They’re quadruplets, yet they're so different in appearance and personality,” Diana murmured, shaking a little rattle shaped like a turtle for Armina. Armina’s turquoise eyes followed the toy, and she giggled as she reached for it. She was the quietest and most cheerful of the four.“Don’t forget they have different fathers,” Marina added, cradling little Minka, who was the most cuddly and demanded the most attention.I sighed softly. “I’m just happy that Dorrin and Alexander don't see it that way. They love all the children e
Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen Chapter 155: The Clang of the Fallen Dagger
Mira’s POV He stopped less than a meter away, his knees hitting the marble with a heavy thud as he suddenly lowered himself into a bow. My heart was drumming a frantic, irregular rhythm against my ribs. He did not look like the cruel, arrogant king who had haunted my nightmares; he looked like a grovelling mate, desperate for a sliver of his lover’s attention. What kind of game was he playing now? “Kill me if you wish, but please... let me speak first,” he said, his voice cracking as he extended the dagger toward me. It was Glossin steel, cold and unforgiving. I could finish him right here, right where he knelt, effortlessly. But my hand wouldn't lift. I hesitated, caught in the gravity of his presence. I could feel the heavy, rapid breathing of Alexander and Dorrin beside me—I saw the way Alexander’s eyes narrowed into slits and how Dorrin’s chin lifted in defiance. They both despised my third mate from the bottom of their hearts for every scar he had carved into my soul. “Mir
Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen Chapter 154: Molten Gold, Cold Iron
Mira's POV The training was intense, but I felt incredibly satisfied. Each drop of sweat felt like an exorcism. Once I received the dagger, I would finally be ready to face him and close this chapter of my life. What I hadn't told anyone was that I was done waiting, done trembling at the thought that he could appear any day, catching me while I held my children or slept in my bed. I refused to be the hunted prey anymore. I was the hunter now. Once I had that blade, I was going to the Demon Kingdom to finish him myself—to carve his memory out of my soul.“Are you sure about that? He is stronger on his own turf. And I’m still not sure you should proceed with this plan to kill your own mate,” Asfar tried to reason with me, her voice a low vibration of anxiety in my skull.I huffed, shedding my dress and sinking into the bath, scrubbing my skin with a loofah until it was raw and red. I had sent the maids away; I wanted to be alone. The memories flooded back, making my chest rise with a f
Born to Rule: The Dragon Queen Chapter 153: A Blade Forged in Grief
Dorrin's POVI stood watching Mira train with Diana at the training grounds. Ever since the babies were born, she spent every single second of her free time—the moments she wasn't nursing or hovering over the cradles—training. It was like she was trying to outrun her own shadow.After her return from the Demon Kingdom and the birth of our children, something in her had snapped and reset into a different shape. She was sharper, colder, like a blade left out in the frost. I watched her throw dagger after dagger. Her aim was terrifyingly perfect. She didn't blink when the wind caught her hair or when a nearby guard dropped a shield. When Diana threw daggers back at her, Mira didn’t just dodge; she moved with a desperate, restless energy, her powers flickering around her like a second skin. She was mastering moves she already knew, practicing until her knuckles were raw and her tunic was soaked in sweat. She looked like she was preparing for an apocalypse.Alexander approached, his boots
