    The heavy mahogany doors no longer pulsed with the Emperor’s dark magic. Stripped of their terrestrial anchor, they were just wood.Caleb also didn’t even bother with the handles , he just let the middle brother do that whole thing, the one where he lunges forward fast , driving a celestial-infused boot straight into the center of the double doors.The massive slabs of mahogany kinda burst outward, like they were paper, turning into a nasty scatter of lethal splinters that speared the Crimson Guards still standing in the corridor, the ones left alive.In the crooked shadow of the wrecked doorway, Jace appeared like he’d been there already, silver daggers tucked away, chest rising and falling a little too hard."The anchor is dust," Jace said, stormy grey eyes snapping onto mine."I know," I answered, and I swear the air felt like it got sucked out in one clean gulp, all that magic rushing away.I bolted past the shattered doors and out onto the wide, open-air obsidian balcony that loo

  • The Forbidden Claim: Three Alphas, One Luna   The Slaughterhouse

    Heavy mahogany doors in the large ballroom didn't simply close; they crashed with a resounding thud. The exits were instantly sealed with a thick, glowing web of dark-red blood-magic.The Vampire Emperor's smile turned into a frightening array of long, pure fangs, up on the sweeping black marble balcony. He lifted one thin, white hand and clapped.The ghostly string quartet suddenly came to a halt. The vaulted, shadowed ceiling high above us seemed to violently shatter.The Emperor's elite, personal executioners, the Crimson Guard, rained like armored rain. They wore heavy articulated armor made of obsidian laced with glowing crimson runes and wore featureless iron masks on their faces. They did not have blood-magic whips, but they had huge, jagged broad swords that were built to cut a Lycan in half."Form the perimeter!" Kaelen roared, and his midnight black tailored suit tore at its seams, as his divine starlight violently erupted.The Crimson Guard's first wave crashed to the groun

  • The Forbidden Claim: Three Alphas, One Luna   The Gala of Blood

    The Phantom Armada ground to a sudden, absolute halt.We were only a hundred yards from the jagged cliffs of the Crimson Continent, yet our ghost ships just couldn’t go on any farther. Along the entire coast, lifting from the boiling surf up into storm-choked clouds, a colossal half translucent wall of pulsing red energy rose and rose. It buzzed with a deep frequency, so deep it rattled the marrow inside my bones. On the cliffs, beyond that barrier, stood a nightmare made real military perfection. Thousands of pureblood Vampires held their ground in flawless, unmoving formation, like carved statues that somehow still breathed. Yet my stare kept snagging on something else, the towering obsidian throne right at the center of their ranks. The one sitting there didn’t look like any warrior. Not really. He looked like a dark god, cut from pale marble and left to breathe. The Vampire Emperor wore a tailored suit in charcoal and crimson. His hair was raven-black, his eyes, not that brigh

    The Black Sea didn’t just part. It surrendered. From the churning, obsidian depths of this subterranean cavern the Phantom Armada clawed its way up, like it was reluctant but committed… yep, like that. They were—breathtaking , terrifying vessels. Woven whole from translucent, pale-grey phantom-wood, the dreadnoughts slid without a sound over the waves, leaving no reflections behind, and messing with none of the water. They were ghost ships, tethered to the physical world by this hollow, aching void in my chest. A void where the memory of my mother’s voice used to live, before it went quiet, forever. Within hours, the unified northern army was aboard. Thousands of Lycans and Obsidian wolves stood shoulder-to-shoulder on spectral decks that felt colder than iron. We sailed straight into the wrong kind of fog, that creeping, corrupted ocean haze. For two days the crossing was completely dead silent. I kept to the bow of the flagship, my silver Luna magic pulsing like a lantern thro

  • The Forbidden Claim: Three Alphas, One Luna   The Toll of the Sea

    The red smoke of the Vampire Prince’s explosive retreat finally settled, leaving the eastern beach eerily quiet.I stood on glass-fused sand, staring out into that opaque creeping fog of the Black Sea.The iron dreadnoughts were gone, completely swallowed by that unnatural darkness, yet the metallic, coppery stink of their blood-magic still hung around in the air, like some rotting corpse that wouldn’t leave you alone.“They’ll be back,” Jace said, under his breath, sliding into place to my right. The youngest brother was back in his human shape, stormy grey eyes doing that calculating thing, like he was running grim equations through his skull. “This was only a fraction of what they’ve got. Vampires don’t sleep, Elara. They don’t get tired, and they don’t need supply lines, not for food they just drink whatever they kill. If we try to keep this coastline forever, they’ll grind us into dust.”“Then we don’t keep it,” Caleb snapped from my left, crossing his heavily scarred arms, celes

  • The Forbidden Claim: Three Alphas, One Luna   The Crimson Armada

    We tore across the eastern plains like a localized hurricane.The unified army of the North didn’t march, they ran… basically panicked but still disciplined, powered by that terrifying echo of the Moon Goddess’s warning.I rode at the very front of the vanguard, my midnight-blue gown whipping in the biting wind; Kaelen, Caleb, and Jace flanked me in their massive newly ascended Celestial wolf forms, looking way too calm for what was coming.The instant we crested the jagged eastern cliffs, staring down over the Black Sea, the nightmare spread below us and stole the breath, straight out my lungs.The scout hadn’t overplayed it. The ocean had turned pitch black, choked by an unnatural creeping fog that smelled like rusted iron, and copper, like someone tried to drown metal. Cutting through that darkness was an impossible armada, all wrong, all silent.There were dozens of massive dreadnought-class ships, made from seamless matte-black iron. No sails, no engines, no wake at all. They jus
