SERAPHINA

What was that shadow?

I half-shifted in an instant, pressing my back hard against the damp, crumbling stone, the coldness of it seeping into my skin. I didn’t dare make a reckless move, not when the unknown lurked so close. A crawling prickle of unease worked its way up the back of my neck, my instincts speaking in an ancient, silent language: something was terribly wrong here.

The air was dense, unnaturally heavy, carrying the thick scent of decayed moss and stale earth, with a sharper, metallic tang lurking beneath it. A scent I knew too well.

Blood.

I held my position, every muscle locked tight, straining to hear past the thundering of my own pulse. But there was nothing; no footsteps, no breath, no rustle of movement in the darkness.

“Did I mishear?” I asked my wolf.

Phina’s voice was low and certain in my mind. “No, I definitely sensed something.”

I waited another beat, pulse pounding in my ears, before easing away from the stone wall. Moonlight filtered through the fr

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   296. IN LIFE OR DEATH

    Nine Hundred Years Ago“Kill Blood Petal,” the she-wolves from Elysium Haven chanted, their voices rising in unison. A moment ago they were all smiling happily and congratulating their queen but the next second they all turned like puppets. As they closed in on Petal, she stood frozen in horror not only because of seeing Ryker back in front of her, alive and inside her Elysium Haven but also, feeling life stirring within her womb.Her belly hadn’t swelled, but she could feel it, the sudden unmistakable presence of a life that she and Dread had created.“Did you really think you killed me, Blood Petal?” Ryker twisted the rabbit’s neck in his grasp, a cruel grin stretching across his face. “If killing me was this easy then i would not be called the king of dark magic in vein, darling,”

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   295. A HISTORY FORGOTTEN

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEWThe clearing in the Blackpine Forest fell silent as everyone focused on Ronan, who lay on the ground, his lower body fading into the white-blue energy emanating from the Moonstone in his right palm."So Alpha Ronan, Seraphina and Ryker’s history is from nine hundred years ago?” Alpha Gideon’s voice was full of disbelief.No one missed how Aran's fists clenched in response."Of course, Ryker should have been dead but he was here not long ago and took Seraphina away," Alpha Hugo’s voice was still shaking.Alpha Darious interjected, "Also, why is there no mention of Ryker Wraithe in the history records?”"He wiped away any records of him, obviously," a voice, deep an

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   294. DESTROYER

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEWAs Ryker’s dark magic dissipated, Dread took Petal away with him while Silas and Aran found themselves standing in the Blackpine Forest once more, though neither of them was in their right mind. After seeing the Lycan King Dread Lord for the first time had shaken them both to their cores.“Did I read his aura correctly?” Silas’ voice was barely above a whisper.Aran, equally shaken, glanced at him. “He’s a destroyer…”“And Petal is a savior,” Silas whispered, his words hanging heavily in the air.The realization settled between them like a weight they couldn’t shake, a destroyer and a savior, bound together in love.THE LYCAN KIN

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   293. NEVER DARE TO TRY

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW As the New Moon approached, a heavy silence descended upon the entire werewolf realm. The people from Elysium Haven and the temple could feel the unease radiating from their Queen, yet they were forced to remain quiet, helpless in their uncertainty. They could only watch the night unfold, knowing that something was terribly wrong, but powerless to act.Even Petal’s rabbit, usually at her side, remained unusually distant, avoiding the bedroom. It was as if the very air had changed. But Petal was nowhere near Elysium Haven or the temple. She stood in the flower garden, staring out at the cliff, the soft sound of the river cascading below filling the quiet night.Suddenly, her body jerked violently. The fourth nail had been struck, deep in the Blackpine Forest, signaling the start of something irreversible. Slowly, Petal turned to find herself in a vast, dark hall. Ryker stood there, as usual, dressed in black, his expression twisted into a smirk.“I see you w

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   292. BE READY

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW “Is that so….”Dread’s eyes spoke more than those three words. His gaze burned into hers, the silence between them stretching until he slowly lifted his hand, covering her eyes, his voice a low whisper in her ear. “You should not have…chosen him.”Petal’s heart skipped a beat, and as her chest tightened, she slowly opened her eyes, only to find herself back in the flower garden by the cliff, the same place where she had first come to Dread that night. His words echoed in her mind, their weight pressing on her as she lay on the flower bed, eyes closing once more. "This is why I was not telling you..." she murmured under her breath.She lay there unmoving for what felt like an eternity before she slowly rose to her feet. Her gaze drifted between the temple and Elysium Haven in the distance, the two forces pulling her in opposite directions. Her entire life, her kingdom, all of it had led her to this point. She had made her decision. Tossing the hem of her gow

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   291. WHO IS HE?

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW Petal finished reading the last book by the next day. She closed her eyes, the burn in them a reflection of the exhaustion she felt after three days without rest, without sleep. The pages had blurred together, but the weight of the knowledge she had uncovered only deepened the ache inside her. Every fifteen days, Ryker’s influence over her grew stronger, more consuming. And the start of the fourth fifteen-day cycle was about to start. Her heart stilled for a moment realizing Ryker was about to make his move. He had waited long enough.Petal quickly opened her eyes, scrambling to rise, but the moment she stood, the world around her shifted. She was no longer in the Elysium Haven."So naïve to think you could go without sleep," Ryker’s voice echoed through the darkened room. He stood before her, his lips curling into a cruel smile.Petal found herself in the grand, shadowy living room of Ryker’s palace, yet another new part of his ever-expanding domain. The
