Council of Fractures (chapter 67)

작가: Stone
last update 최신 업데이트: 2025-09-27 03:45:52

Kaïden’s POV

The council chamber was thick with fear. It wasn’t the typical blood-soaked aftermath of battle, but something much worse—paranoia. It seeped into every voice, every glance, every tightly clenched fist resting on those polished oak tables.

I stood at the front of the room, with Akira just behind me. Her presence felt like a flame I was determined to keep alive, even though the council was eyeing her like she was a spark ready to set everything ablaze.

General Arik was the first to break the heavy silence. His gravelly voice commanded attention, even as uncertainty flickered in his eyes. “If Thorne has breached our borders using ancient magic, we need to double our patrols. Every entry point must be fortified. No exceptions.”

Agreement spread through the war council, but Councilman Rhen's sharp tone sliced through the chatter. “Securing borders is pointless if you’re keeping the very key that might have opened them!” He gestured toward Akira, his hand slicing through the a

  • Torn Between Two Moons   threads of warning (chapter 69)

    Kaidën’s POV As soon as the door slammed behind Akira, the sound sliced through my patience like a knife. I found myself frozen in the dim hallway, my hand still lingering in the space where she had pushed me away. Her words carried the weight of an order, one I felt I couldn’t ignore. "Go. Wait outside." It wasn’t a request; it was a command. And I obeyed. I should’ve been outraged. Maybe I was—though my anger wasn’t directed at her. No, the real fury swirling inside me stemmed from the sealed, crimson-marked envelope she had clutched. A message delivered by a specter of a man. How dare someone breach my territory—my domain, my ward, my mate—and slip away without a trace? I began pacing the corridor, each step barely holding back the urge to storm through those walls and track down whoever sent that warning. Whoever thought they could reach her so easily. Whoever believed they could take what was mine. Her scent still lingered in the air—warm and soft, but threaded with an iron

  • Torn Between Two Moons   What Bleeds in Silence (chapter 68)

    Akira’s POV The envelope felt oddly heavy, almost as if the paper had a heartbeat of its own. My thumb brushed against the crimson slash sealing it—still warm, like it had just been delivered seconds ago. Kaidën stood next to me, a shadow with an edge. "Open it," he commanded, devoid of any plea or request. I hesitated. Instead, I focused on him—really focused. I could see the tension in his shoulders, the silent rage simmering just beneath his skin, and the pulse that throbbed dangerously at his throat. He was tightly coiled, his presence shifting like a storm ready to unleash. "If this is a trap," I murmured, "opening it without caution could trigger something." His eyes flared. "And if it’s a warning we ignore, it could cost us both our lives." There was a brief silence. We didn’t often agree, but at that moment, we were in sync. Wordlessly, I flipped the envelope and broke the seal. A folded piece of parchment slid into my hand—thicker than regular message paper, with fai

  • Torn Between Two Moons   The Mark of Blood (chapter 66)

    Akira’s POV The red sigil throbbed like a heartbeat, each flicker burning into my sight. Even though there was some space between us, I could still feel its heat creeping across my skin, whispering sweet promises of destruction. I had come across symbols like this once, hidden away in my mother’s journals. Old magic. Forbidden stuff. The type that didn’t just harm the body—it twisted the soul. “Don’t touch it,” I cautioned, my tone sharper than I meant it to be. Kaïden stopped mid-step, his jaw tightening at my words. “Do you know what this is?” My throat felt dry. Should I tell him the truth? That the blood in my veins, the fire I carried, was linked to markings like these? That my mother’s death had been sealed by one of them? I swallowed hard. “It’s a curse mark. It binds. It lingers. Wherever it’s cast, destruction follows.” Frightened murmurs swept through the council, the tension thick enough to choke on. Rhen sneered, his voice trembling but loud enough for all to hear

  • Torn Between Two Moons   Shattered Thrones (chapter 65)

    Kaïden’s POV The quiet in the great hall felt louder than any battlefield I’d ever faced. Every soldier, councilman, and even the servants hiding in the shadows were all focused on her. Not on me, not on the crown, not even on the throne behind me. Her. Akira stood there, like a flame made flesh, unyielding even after Thorne’s poison and his failed escape. The glow in her eyes still flickered with that inner fire, and her chest moved as if she were battling something huge within. And her hand... still intertwined with mine. I wouldn’t let go. “Kaïden,” General Arik’s gravelly voice broke through the tension, uncertain. The man who had served my father loyally now looked at me like he was waiting for a command he wasn’t sure he could follow. “What are we supposed to make of this? Of… her?” A murmur passed through the ranks. Fear. Wonder. Curiosity. It spread like cracks in stone. I lifted my chin, stepping forward and pulling Akira with me so the entire hall could see us togethe

  • Torn Between Two Moons   Touch of Fire ( chapter 64 )

    Akira’s POV As soon as Kaïden’s hand wrapped around mine, I prepared for that familiar, terrible sensation of my flesh burning away. But then something completely unexpected happened. The flames roared to life, wild and hungry, but instead of consuming him, they seem to curve inward, as if his touch was the very thing they had been waiting for. His palm was warm against mine, but not burning. Our eyes met—his blue ones steady and fearless. "You see?" he murmured, his voice low yet cutting through the chaos. "You don’t destroy me, Akira. You never could." Tears threatened to spill, hot and traitorous. The whispers in my head were clawing at my sanity, louder than ever as they screamed to take me back. Lies! Break him! Claim the crown for yourself! But his touch felt grounding, like a lifeline pulling me back from the edge. For the first time since the flames ignited within me, I wasn’t drowning—I was making a choice. My power surged again, then pulled back like a retreating tide
