THE ROGUE QUEEN Chapter 63
Back in the Courtyard The pain was unbearable.. I felt my mother's pain, her terror, her desperate love for me as they drained her blood. Felt the moment they killed her and twisted what remained into this monstrosity. And underneath all that, I felt something else. A trap. The Beast wasn't just made from her blood. It was designed to drain mine. Every second I stayed connected, I felt my power flowing out, being pulled into some kind of reservoir. ‘Morgana lied,’ I realized. ‘This isn't about destroying the Beast. It's about draining me.’ I tried to pull back, but the connection had barbs—magical hooks that dug deeper the more I struggled. "SELENE!" Damon's voice, Rex's form appearing beside me. "What's wrong?" "It's a trap! The Beast is—" Pain cut off my words as more power drained away. Through the bond, Damon felt everything. Felt the trap closing around me. Rex lunged at the Beast, not trying to kill it but to break the physical contact between us. His massive jaws clo
THE ROGUE QUEEN Chapter 62
The Battle Begins The Shadow Beast didn't just arrive. It smashed through our outer defenses like they were made of paper. I heard the screams first. Then the crashing. Then I saw it. "Oh my god." It was massive—easily twenty feet tall, made of writhing shadows that seemed to eat the light around them. Red eyes like burning coals. Claws that left tears in the air itself when it moved. And it was heading straight for me. "“EVERYONE FALL BACK!” Damon shouted. "GET TO SECONDARY POSITIONS NOW!" Warriors scattered. The shadow traps we'd spent days setting up exploded against the Beast's hide and did absolutely nothing. Arrows flew through its body like it was made of smoke. Because it was made of smoke. Corrupted, angry, murderous smoke. The Beast's eyes locked on mine, and I felt it—that connection Morgana had talked about. Like a fishhook sunk deep in my chest, pulling. No. Not pulling. Dragging. I gasped as the sensation intensified. My mother's blood. They'd killed her and

One Hour Before the Beast Arrives "She's gone." Zara's hands were shaking. "I've checked everywhere—the library, her room, the healing wing. Selene, she just... she's just gone." My stomach dropped. "What do you mean gone?" “I mean she’s nowhere. Like she just vanished.” Zara’s voice broke. “What if someone took her? What if—” “Who would take her?” Damon asked sharply. Nobody answered. We all suspect who it could be, but saying Morgana's name out loud felt like admitting we'd been stupid enough to trust her. Mark cleared his throat. "Your Majesty, that creature will be at our walls in less than an hour. We need every able body on the defenses. The healer—" “Don’t,” I warned, stepping forward. "Don't you dare finish that sentence." "I'm just saying we can't afford to—" "She's pack!" The words came out louder than I meant them to. “We don’t leave our own behind.” Mark had the sense to look ashamed. But he pointed toward the window anyway. "Then what do you suggest? Because tha

That Evening - A DiscoveryLyra was in the library, researching Shadow Beasts and coven magic, when she found something that made her blood run cold.An old journal, hidden among the restricted texts.She opened it and began to read:Day 47 of Experimentation:‘The Shadow Wolf subject continues to resist. Her blood is indeed as powerful as the legends claim. A single drop can amplify spells tenfold. But extracting it while she lives is proving difficult.’‘She screams for her daughter. Begs us to let her see the child one last time. But High Priestess Morgana has forbidden it. The child must believe her mother is dead, or the plan will fail.’‘Tomorrow, we attempt the full extraction. If successful, we'll have enough Shadow Wolf blood to create not just one Beast, but an entire army…’Lyra's hands shook as she read the signature at the bottom:‘Recorded by High Priestess Morgana of the Shadowlands Coven’She dropped the journal like it had burned her.Morgana wasn't Selene's aunt tryi

At the Same Time – War CouncilDamon stood before his generals, trying to focus on tactics when all he wanted was to return to Selene."The coven's attack will come from the north," General Mark said. "That's where the Shadowlands border is closest.""Then we reinforce the northern defenses," Damon ordered. "Triple the guards. Set up—"A commotion at the door interrupted him.A messenger stumbled in, bleeding. "Your Majesty, the western border is under attack!""By whom? The Council?""No. Rogues. Hundreds of them. But they're not fighting to breach. They're—" The messenger swayed. "They're herding something toward us. Something big.""Show me."They rushed to the western wall, and Damon's blood went cold at what he saw.In the distance, a massive creature made of pure shadow was moving toward the Court. It looked like a wolf but ten times the size, with eyes that glowed red and a form that flickered between solid and smoke."What the hell is that?" Maya breathed beside him."A Shadow

The Next MorningI woke to find Damon already gone, a note left on his pillow:‘Emergency council meeting. Didn't want to wake you. Stay in our chambers until I return. This is not a request. - D’I crushed the note in my hand, annoyed.I was the Queen, not a prisoner.But before I could leave, Zara burst through the door without knocking, her face pale."Selene, you need to come with me. Now.""What's wrong?""It's Ash. He's... just come. Please."We ran through the corridors to the healer's wing, where Ash lay unconscious on a bed, his body covered in strange symbols burned into his skin.Lyra was examining him, her hands glowing faintly green."What happened?" I demanded."He was on patrol near the Shadowlands border." Zara's voice shook. "When he didn't report back, we sent a search party. They found him like this, barely alive.""What are these symbols?" I traced one with my finger—it looked like an ancient script."Coven marks," Lyra said grimly. "They're a warning. And a tracki
