《》Ronan’s POV

I’ve seen Aria angry before.

I’ve seen her rage in battle, seen her stand with blood on her hands and fire in her eyes, seen her stare down men who made kings tremble.

But this—this wasn’t anger.

This was something else.

Panic. Desperation. Grief that hadn’t had time to surface yet.

She was shaking. Her voice was hoarse from screaming. And there was this look in her eyes I couldn’t stand. Like she was watching the world fall apart in slow motion and couldn’t do a damn thing to stop it.

“Aria,” I said, reaching for her arm. “We’ll find them. We will.”

She yanked away like my touch burned.

“No. Don’t—don’t try to calm me down, Ronan. They’re gone. My babies are gone.”

Her voice cracked on the last word, and I felt it like a blade between the ribs.

I wanted to tell her it wasn’t her fault. But I knew she wouldn’t believe me. Hell, I wasn’t even sure I believed myself. She trusted Ansel. But so did I. At least enough to leave the twins in her care.

And now...

  • The Heart of the Queen: Legacy of The Moonborn   °•♡Chapter 111~ The Limits of Power

    《》Selene’s POVI returned to the twin's tent.The air was cooler now or perhpas I just felt more relaxed. Joran had done well. I sensed the constant hum of magic in the air. A constant reminder that this place was mine.Talia and Kael were curled in opposite corners. She looked exhausted. He looked angry.Good.Joran followed me in. The guards came in after—two loyal rogues with hands strong enough to crush bone and souls unwilling to follow my cause.Talia saw me first. She flinched so hard I thought she’d scream.“Don’t,” I warned softly. “You’ve screamed enough.”“I hate you,” she hissed, rising to her knees. Her small fists trembled, glowing faintly with flickering light.I smiled.She tried again, reaching into whatever part of her gift she understood. A burst of air energy pushed forward like a slap. I didn’t even blink.The power fizzled inches from my face, dissipating into nothing.“I told you,” I said as I stepped closer. “You’ll only use your gifts when I allow it.”“I want

  • The Heart of the Queen: Legacy of The Moonborn   °•♡Chapter 111~ Their Mother's Sin's

    《》Selene’s POVSelene — First PersonThe fire burned low, soft embers licking the soil. I moved slowly around it, arms outstretched, bare feet dragging a path in the dirt I’d worn down night after night.My body swayed with the rhythm of the chant — old words, guttural and low, pulsing from deep in my chest.It was a language long lost to this world.Only I remembered.And it remembered me.My skin prickled with heat, but I didn’t mind. I liked the sting. I liked the sweat.I liked the feeling of power humming just beneath the surface.Naked, raw, real.“Highness.”The voice snapped the trance.I didn’t stop the dance, not right away. I hated being interrupted.My concubine, Cassian, lingered at the edge of the tent, head bowed like he might be struck. He’d learned well.“What?” I asked, letting the music in my head dissolve.“The children… refuse to eat again.”I sighed and rolled my eyes, slow and theatrical.Of course they did.I moved toward the corner of the tent, slipping on the

  • The Heart of the Queen: Legacy of The Moonborn   °•♡Chapter 110~ The Queens Command

    The next morning, I sat at the long, cold table in the council chamber, surrounded by noise I didn’t care to understand.They were all talking over each other. Voices rising. Hands waving. Faces red with urgency and fear.“Selene has made her move—”“We must form the allied lines now—”“She has tapped into something unnatural, something beyond—”“We should’ve burned her in the womb—”I stared blankly ahead, jaw clenched.Not because I had nothing to say. But because none of them were saying anything that mattered.Vane’s sharp, tactical voice cut across the room. “We need full patrols on the eastern border. Her forces are unpredictable. If she breaches again—”“And risk pulling more into open conflict?” Ronan snapped. “She still has Kael and Talia.”Lucien backed him up without hesitation. “We don’t go to war while she holds them. That’s not strategy. That’s suicide.”I looked at them both.Their faces were hard. Focused. Loyal.And right.The tension kept rising until Cael finally la

  • The Heart of the Queen: Legacy of The Moonborn   °•♡Chapter 109~ Eyes in the Dark

    I was drifting.Not falling. Not flying. Just… drifting.Everything around me was dark. Not pitch black, not empty—just dense. Like I was floating through smoke without a body.I didn’t know if I was moving forward or just circling in place. The silence was so loud it rang in my ears. I couldn’t feel my arms. Couldn’t tell if I had any.I opened my mouth to call out—But there was no voice.Was this it?Had I gotten lost?Had I left my body just to get swallowed whole by this godless void?Panic bubbled in my chest.Then—“Breathe.”The voice came like a ripple through water, soft but sharp enough to cut through the haze.Nyra.My wolf.She sounded calm. Strong. Like she was close, like she was inside me and beside me at the same time.“You’re not lost,” she said. “You’re searching. Trust it. Trust us.”I didn’t answer. Couldn’t. But I clung to her voice.It was enough.And then—there it was.A pull.Thin, almost invisible.But it was real.A thread. A tether.Faint at first. But as I

  • The Heart of the Queen: Legacy of The Moonborn   °•♡Chapter 108~ A Dangerous Thing Called Hope

    Two days.Forty-eight hours without Talia’s laugh or Kael’s big, brave eyes.Two nights of not sleeping, not really. Just lying there with my eyes open, hand over my stomach, and a gaping ache in my chest that no one could touch.Lucien hadn’t left my side—not really. When he wasn’t searching the nearby roads and forests, he was back at the war table with Ronan and the others, barking orders and drawing maps and suggesting routes that had already gone cold.It was all useless.They were long gone. I knew that in my bones.Selene hadn’t just taken them on a whim. This was planned. Coordinated. We were already two steps behind, and every minute that passed was like losing a piece of myself.There was a hollow space in my body where the twins should be, and it was getting louder.No one said it aloud, but the silence in the room screamed it.They were running out of places to search.I watched them from the hallway. Lucien and Ronan leaning over a rough-drawn map. Cael standing off to th

  • The Heart of the Queen: Legacy of The Moonborn   °•♡Chapter 107~ The Morning After

    Ansel’s door shut with a heavy click.Two guards stationed outside. One female sentry inside. No windows to crawl out of. She wasn’t going anywhere.“She’s secure,” Ronan said to Cael before walking off to coordinate the next patrol.I didn’t follow. My legs were too heavy, my head too loud. Instead, I sank onto one of the worn chairs in the common room, elbows on my knees.The fire crackled like it was mocking me.Cael stepped in a few minutes later, quiet as ever. He didn’t sit. Just leaned against the wall, arms crossed, watching me.“I was so stupid,” I muttered. “She was right in front of me, and I never once doubted her.”His voice was calm. “You trusted her.”“I shouldn’t have.”“You always see the good in people, Aria. That’s not weakness.”I looked up at him. “Isn’t it? She played me like a song, and I just kept singing along.”“You’ve always been like that,” he said. “Even before all this. You gave people chances. That’s not on you. That’s on them for abusing it.”I sighed.
