Alpha Khy’s POV –

The journey to England was long, but not unfamiliar. I’d ridden through rain, shadow, and cursed wind, across the whispering borderlands of Wales until the craggy silhouette of Castle Durnholde greeted me like an old ghost.

Ancient. Isolated. Full of secrets.

This was no royal castle, no place for balls or coronations. No, Durnholde was a fortress of forgotten knowledge, buried deep into the cliffs overlooking the black waters of the North Sea. Magic clung to its stones like mist.

A friend of mine—Elias Thorne, a scholar of the Elder Council—met me at the front with tired eyes and a thick robe lined in rune thread. He offered a handshake and a nod.

“Khy MacLeod,” he muttered, “You don’t travel without reason. What kind of ancient nightmare are you chasing this time?”

“One that wears a crown,” I answered.

We entered the castle, torchlight flickering against shelves that reached the heavens. Books older than kingdoms. Scrolls that shouldn’t exist. Spells written in lan

  • Queen Luna: Once Rejected, Now Ruthless   Chapter 56

    The Castle in SightBy twilight, the peaks of the castle towers appeared beyond the trees. Bells rang in the far distance. Somewhere up there, Kyla and Edric were preparing for war. The Moon Queen’s legacy shimmered in Kala’s satchel. And their time alone?Over.Kala exhaled softly.“I suppose this is the part where you get all noble and annoying and swear to protect me forever,” she muttered.Khy shrugged. “I thought I already did that.”“Well, don’t.”“Too late.”She glanced sideways—and her sarcasm faltered.He wasn’t smirking.He was just looking at her. Open. Unafraid. Like she was something carved out of starlight and trouble.Kala swallowed hard. Looked ahead again.They didn’t speak for the rest of the trail.But they didn’t move apart, either.And when the castle gates opened and the light from the inner court spilled across their path—They stepped through together.Still bickering. Still denying.Still burning. And still headed straight for destiny.*****KYLA’S POVThe Cas

    Khy didn’t hesitate. He sprinted up the walls, claws digging into stone, then launched from the ceiling like a comet of fur and fury.With a twist of her wrists, Kala yanked the Warden downward.Khy collided from above—full force—his claws glowing white with moon-forged mana. His jaws snapped around the core of the beast, dragging it into the stone floor with a sound like a world ending.BOOM.The cavern shook. Mist exploded in a burst of screaming shadows.Silence.Then—dripping water. The echo of a crack in the stone. The scent of blood.Kala stood, swaying, the light in her sword dimmed.Khy padded toward her, wounded but still massive, muzzle stained in dark ichor. He shifted mid-step, becoming man once more—clothes tattered, chest heaving.“You good?” he asked gruffly.Kala gave a thumbs up and collapsed on a chunk of rubble. “Peachy. My spine’s on fire, and I may have swallowed mist. But my eyeliner didn’t smudge, so I’m calling it a win.”He chuckled—then surprised her.He knel

    The petals formed the shape of a spiral moon sigil—the exact mark Kyla had accidentally carved into the air weeks ago.Khy stared at it, then looked at Kala.“You really think Kyla is…”“She’s not just her heir,” Kala whispered. “She’s her unfinished will. The Moon Queen poured her final breath into a seed and buried it in the womb of time.”Khy stepped forward. “And now?”Kala looked up at the stars. “Now the seed is blooming.”There was a silence.Heavy. Fated.And Kala, though her heart beat like thunder, turned and walked away.Khy stood behind her.Still watching.Still waiting.And the wind, playful and cold, carried his whispered words to her ears:“You’ll love me eventually, storm-girl.”To which Kala said nothing.But her ears turned pink.And the moon above them smiled.Because even as shadows rose… so did fate. And fire. And love.CAVERN OF ECHOED FLAMESLocation: Northern Fringe of the Blistering Clefts, buried beneath lava stone and lies.They shouldn’t have come here. Ka

    A warning painted in blood and flame.A young boy, no older than ten, hid under the corpse of his mother. His eyes wide. Silent. Watching.Until a dark figure hovered above him—one of the witches, with a jagged crown of bone, her smile a red crescent.She whispered something in a language no child should hear.Then she walked away.Letting him live.Not out of mercy.But to carry the horror forward.Above it all, the clouds twisted, and a black sun began to rise—unnatural, pulsing with eldritch magic. A conjuring. A gateway.This wasn’t just war.This was the awakening of the old powers.And in the heart of it, Aldrian roared again—ripping through another house with one swipe, fire crawling up his arms like pets that loved him.He was no longer Kyla’s ally.He was a weapon now.A monster blessed by the witches and bound to a new cause. Whatever part of him had once been loyal, kind, or brave—it had been scorched away.Replaced with fire.And vengeance.From far off, the royal scouts c

    As we all stood there, wet, muddy, and halfway traumatized, Clarence arrived with a clipboard and a monocle.“I heard screaming and felt a gust of wind steal my bonnet. What happened?”Carrot pointed at me. “Goddess went full elemental. Bye-bye, lake.”Clarence nodded, impressed. “Good. She needed exfoliation anyway.”Kala turned to the vegetables. “We’ll resume tomorrow. With a new training plan. And maybe not near a body of water this time.”“And I want a lake refund!” Broccolini shouted.I looked out over the empty basin, heart still thudding, magic still buzzing through my veins like thunder.And even though my hair was soaked, my boots were caked in mud, and a radish was weeping gently in the corner…I smiled.Because I felt it now—this wasn't just magic.This was me, rising.Even if I flooded the kingdom on my way up.The next morning was supposed to be peaceful.A casual breeze. A few floating pebbles. Maybe some gentle leaf twirls.Not a kingdom-level wheatpocalypse.“Alright,

    The next day started off normally—which, in my world, meant only one vegetable had exploded before breakfast.I was nursing a cup of moonberry tea, half-asleep, half-dreading today’s earth magic bootcamp, when the castle doors slammed open like the climax of a romance novel.“DARLING!” a voice rang through the halls like a war trumpet wrapped in velvet.I didn’t even have to look up. I knew that voice.Clarence du Montclair had arrived.She didn’t walk—she glided into the courtyard, wrapped in layers of iridescent silk and a shawl that shimmered like dragonfly wings. Her heels were made of polished obsidian. Her hair was twisted up into a sculpted braid that looked like it was done by angels with advanced engineering degrees.Behind her trailed two assistants carrying enchanted hatboxes that sang lullabies when jostled.She paused in front of me, pushed her oversized pearl-rimmed sunglasses onto her head, and took one look at my wrinkled tunic, grass-stained boots, and crooked braid.
