POV: Felicia

"You're not allowed to take it with you."

I looked up from the vault record. Seren stood in the doorway, arms crossed like she'd already rehearsed this.

"I wasn't planning to take anything."

She pointed at the book in my hands. "Not the book. The responsibility."

I stared at her. She'd gotten far too good at saying the exact thing I didn't want to hear.

"I'm still the Chosen Queen."

"Yes."

"So responsibility is rather difficult to avoid."

"That's not what I mean." She touched the o

  • The Rejected Luna’s Hidden Legacy    Chapter 105 : The People Who Were Waiting

    POV: CaelTHUMP.The whole chamber shook with it, but I didn't just hear it. I felt it land in my chest like a fist.THUMP.My hands went cold. My chest pulled tight, like something was reaching in and squeezing."Cael?" Mother's voice, sharp, somewhere behind me.I couldn't answer her. My gift had woken up without asking me first, and it wasn't reaching toward one person anymore. It was reaching toward everyone. A mother crying for a daughter she hadn't seen in years. A child's excitement at hearing another world for the first time. An old man remembering someone dead three hundred years. A soldier certain contact meant war. A girl terrified of being taken because of what she could do.Thousands of feelings at once, none of them mine, all of them inside me.I hit my knees."Cael!" Dad was there instantly, hands on my shoulders.I grabbed his arm hard enough to bruise. "Dad … don't let me listen.""Then stop."I looked up at him with tears already running. "I don't know how."•Everyo

  • The Rejected Luna’s Hidden Legacy    Chapter 104 : The Wrong Question

    POV: Lucien"We did invite you. But we aren't the ones who invited you."Neris's words were still hanging in the air when the Bond went quiet. Not peaceful. Quiet the way a room goes quiet right before something falls. I felt it in my chest before I understood what it was … every Bond-sensitive person in that chamber stopped breathing at the exact same second.A message came through. Not Neris. Not one of the western elders.Aela's face changed first. I caught it before anyone else did."What did you hear?" I asked.She didn't answer. The message came again, and this time I felt the edge of it myself.Do not expand the connection."Is that a threat?" Felicia asked.Aela shook her head. "No.""Then what is it?"She looked up at both of us, small and pale in the candlelight. "They're afraid."•The council assembled fast … Felicia, Cassian, Orion, Seren, Maren, the Moon Priest, half the eastern delegation, and Neris flickering through the unstable connection with a room of western adult

  • The Rejected Luna’s Hidden Legacy    Chapter 103 … What the Moon Priests Hid

    POV: Senior Moon Priest"You knew."Felicia's voice was quiet, which was worse than shouting. The symbol on Orion's map still glowed behind her. The seventh bell had gone silent. Nobody in that room was breathing normally except her.I didn't answer.She stepped closer. "You knew there was another civilization."Still I said nothing."You knew the expedition crossed."I closed my eyes. That was answer enough."How long?"I made myself say it. "Since before the first crown was placed on a Chosen Queen."The room came apart. Council members shouting over each other. Lucien's hand went to his weapon before his mind had caught up with it. Only Seren didn't move … she watched me the way her mother used to watch a lie unravel, except there was no triumph in it. I wasn't defending myself. I couldn't. Shame doesn't leave room for defense.•I ordered the oldest archive opened. It had never happened in public, not even during the worst of the old crises. Three priestly seals, then blood, then

  • The Rejected Luna’s Hidden Legacy    Chapter 102: The Message

    POV: Seren"They asked me to come."The words hadn't even finished leaving Aela's mouth before Lucien stepped in front of her like a wall."No.""I haven't even told you what they said.""You don't need to."Mother didn't correct him. That was the part that scared me … for all her growth, the second Aela said cross, the old instinct came roaring back in her like it had never left. Lucien wanted the eastern crossing sealed. Mother wanted every channel watched. Maren argued Aela wasn't a government asset to be locked down. Aela stood in the middle of all of it getting angrier by the second."I'm standing right here."Nobody heard her."You should probably let her finish," I said.Every head turned. I looked at Aela. "What exactly did they invite you to do?""Cross." A pause. "And they said they know where the first voice came from."My whole spine went cold. The first voice. The one the old records warned us about and never explained."Did they say what happened to the people who came b

  • The Rejected Luna’s Hidden Legacy    Chapter 101 : The Other Half

    POV: Aela"You're not supposed to be here."I stopped walking. The voice had come from the ocean … not from behind me, not from the cliffs, from the water itself. I turned in a slow circle. Nobody. Just the beach, the dark line of the cliffs, the sleeping lights of the settlement, and all that black water stretching out past everything I knew.I looked down. The star on my wrist wasn't glowing the way it usually did, soft and half-asleep. It was blazing."I know," I said.The ocean moved. One wave. Then another. Not like an alarm. Like a door swinging open on a hinge that had been waiting years to turn.I put my hand in the water.•Everything came at once. Thousands of voices … Silvercrest, Blackthorn, Frost City, the Vael, children and elders and soldiers and scholars, people praying, people laughing, people asleep with no idea I could hear them dreaming. The Bond had always felt like something underneath the world. Now it felt like people. Millions of small, breathing lives, all at

  • The Rejected Luna’s Hidden Legacy    Chapter 100 … The First

    POV: Felicia"Mother, you cannot arrest a diplomat because he cheated at cards."Orion's voice carried clean across the garden. I stopped halfway down the stairs. Lucien looked up from his breakfast. Cassian choked on his tea. Seren didn't even glance up from her book.The Frost City representative … red-faced, thoroughly offended … jabbed a finger at my seven-year-old son. "I am twice your age."Orion considered that with the gravity of a judge. "Then you should have known better."I covered my mouth. Lucien grinned into his cup."This is your fault," he murmured."My fault?""You taught him constitutional law at five.""He asked.""He always asks."Orion turned to me, chin up. "Mother. Are you going to let him cheat?"Seven years ago I'd been terrified that everything I'd built would fall apart the second I stopped holding it. Now a seven-year-old was settling a diplomatic dispute before breakfast, and I hadn't said a single word.I smiled. "Absolutely not."The diplomat groaned. Si
