บททั้งหมดของ Elizabeth: The Great Reckoning: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

Dinner at Fiorelli's was as delicious as they had anticipated. It wasn't Hannah's first time there, but it was the first time she had been there and had sat with her friends instead of her future mate. She looked sideways at Ellie and smiled. She was glad to have met Ellie. She would make a good Queen, if only she could get past her resentment toward the entire magical population. She supposed, like with anything, it would take time for her to adjust to her new position. "Are we having dessert?" Sam asked. "That's a stupid question, of course we are. What are you getting?" She turned to ask Firash. He was sitting next to her at the table. "Cannoli stuffed with bananas and cream cheese," he said with a lick of his lips. "Eurgh," Sam said with a fake gag. "Spumonti for me." "Ah, cheesecake," Ellie said with a smile as Stefano brought her a slice from the back. He winked at her and she grinned up at him as she took a bite. Hannah looked between Ellie, Stefano and Jake. Her brows were

The sun shone brightly against the grassy knoll; trees surrounded the clearing. There were mostly evergreens, ferns and yellow buttercups growing in between. The grass was sparse in the dense forest surrounding the clearing. Moss grew over stones and fallen logs; a deep green glow shone through the forest where the sun was shining through the canopy of foliage above.Ellie could see twelve stone thrones in a circle, surrounding a large stone table. It was larger than anything she had ever seen before, if she didn’t know better, she would think it had been made for giants. But there were no giants on earth, at least she didn’t think there were. She turned in a circle, looking at the clearing and the forest, trying to figure out where she was. She had been in her dormitory just a few moments ago. She was getting her things so she could go to the dance with her friends and now she was walking into the midst of a magical feast.She stared at the table; it was c

Ellie was exhausted. She could hardly keep her eyes open, they kept closing as she stared at the text in front of her. It had been two weeks since the dance at Homecoming and school was starting to get intense. She didn't realize how much was involved in magic. She always thought you either had magic or you didn't. She always assumed she didn't. She was a werewolf without a wolf. That seemed pretty ordinary to her. Despite the weird violet eyes, seeing Jake's future thing. Other than her brief encounter with the lady in red at the Feast of the Fates, her only visions had been about Jake. The weeks that followed Homecoming were packed with new lessons with Stefano, which did not make Jake very happy. He, fortunately for Ellie, had to leave for those weeks to meet with Alphas around the country in preparation for his crowning so Ellie hadn't seen him since the day after the dance. Ellie mused about how much different her lessons with Stefano would be if Jake were hovering just around

It was a curse to see your death right before it happened. Ellie mused on that thought for a moment before she realized she wasn't yet dead. The explosion hadn't happened yet so they still had time to thwart it.Somehow.She didn't know how they would thwart the explosion though, not really. She didn't know where the explosion came from. It could be a bomb. It could be a faulty engine. It could be a flock of birds flying into the engines causing the plane to burst into a ball of fire."Can birds take down a plane?" Ellie asked, her thoughts running wild."What?" Meredith asked, her face equal parts terrified and incredulous."Were there birds in your vision?" Mark's voice was calm as he stared intently at Ellie. She looked up at him in surprise, forgetting for a moment that he was there."No, there was an explosion, I was trying to figure out what could have caused it and then I was wondering if we flew into a flock of birds if they would ca

Ellie and Amanda walked into the restaurant first, the dark ambiance matching the darkness outside. It was late, their plane had landed late after the excitement of the flight. The only places open at such a late hour were restaurants with bars attached. One glance around the room and Ellie could tell half the inhabitants were not normal humans. There was a buzzing in the air, as if even the world around them could feel the presence of something abnormal. She couldn't tell yet whether they were magical, but she could say with certainty they were not human. "Oh my God," Amanda whispered as she nudged Ellie in the ribs with her elbow. "What is it?" Ellie whispered back, glancing at her friend to see what had caught Amanda's attention. "That man's eyes," Amanda said, her voice trailing off as she stared at a man sitting very near a fire at the far end of the restaurant. His eyes glowed a red-orange in the flickering of the flames coming from the gas fireplace insert on the wall next t
