The car came to a halt near one of the side entrances, a door reserved for personal arrivals rather than grand processions. Still, there was no avoiding the line of staff already waiting for me; maids, stewards, and guards, all standing with their heads bowed low.Remi stepped down first, smoothing her dress before offering me her hand. I took it, grateful for the small comfort of her touch, and stepped onto the cold stone path.The air here felt heavier somehow, thick with the weight of history and expectation."Her Majesty, the Queen," one of the stewards announced in a clear, ringing voice. His words carried across the courtyard, and all eyes immediately fell on me.Their gazes were respectful, but it still sent a shiver down my spine. I forced a calm expression, lifting my chin just slightly. I had to be strong. This is amusing because I visit here several times, but I never actually enter through this door. I usually use the back door or teleport with Veldrin. Remi walked a st

Heat rushed to my face at his words, but I refused to give him the satisfaction of looking away. "Well," I whisper, "maybe I just missed you.""And I missed you, Rissa. More than you'll ever know." His laughter was low, rumbling through his chest, and it vibrated against me in the most intoxicating way. The intensity in his tone made my heart squeeze. I wanted to tell him about my day, about how Lyra and her quirky traits had been both terrifying and fantastic, how I was beginning to feel like maybe I could handle this role as Queen without jeopardizing Veldrin's mother's legacy. But right then, all I wanted was to stay in his arms a little longer.Still, I pulled back slightly, just enough to meet his eyes. "I studied all day," I said quickly, the words tumbling out as though I had to prove myself. "Lyra says I did well. She'll be back in a few days for more lessons."His eyes softened even more, pride flickering there as he cupped my face. "Of course, she said that. You'll be

Standing atop the tallest building in the human city, I closed my eyes, trying to contain the storm raging in my chest.I still couldn't believe it. Someone had dared to kill my people so close to Shadowhaven. It wasn't just an attack. It was a message. A challenge.But what twisted the knife deeper in my heart was the way my person died. The wounds, the method… it was identical to how I had killed Liam Colter.'Did they seriously want to mock me? To imitate me? No. Wait...' My eyes snapped open, a cold thought striking hard.Before I could chase the confirmation of my suspicions, the sound of footsteps approached from behind. I didn't need to turn; I already knew who it was."Your Highness…" Elijah's voice carried tension, filled with urgency and unease. He didn't need to explain for me to sense what weighed on him.I turned slowly, meeting his gaze. Behind him stood several others, lined up in silence. Their faces bore the same grave expression as Elijah's; tight, grim, and hea

I pinched the bridge of my nose while complaining to the Moon Goddess to pair me with a guardian who only speaks in sarcasm. "Listen, Ky, you couldn't just... kill quietly? This mess... What if Rissa woke up and saw it? She might have fainted!""Oh, sure," he snorted. "Next time assassins show up at your doorstep, I'll politely ask them to die without making a mess. Maybe light some candles too, to set the mood."I glared at him, though my lips twitched hearing his humor. "You're impossible. But, thank you, Ky!""Flattery won't distract me, Veldrin..." he said, tossing a bone aside with a clatter. "You were late. That's the point. You felt the distraction, didn't you? And you almost followed it."That made my spine stiff. He wasn't wrong.I'd been seconds away from running off after shadows, leaving my mate vulnerable. My gut soured at the thought.Kyrex smirked when he saw the gloominess in my eyes. "Congratulations, you just passed lesson one of 'How Not to Be a Gullible Idiot King

My day wasn't over even after the sun started to rise on the horizon.My body screamed for rest. My mind longed to return to the cabin, to my mate, where I could finally breathe. But this problem simply refused to let me rest. The chaos circling in the kingdom pressed down like a storm I couldn't escape.And my grandfather's voice rang in my mind every time I tried to steady my breathing.'Veldrin, the other elders request an urgent meeting. They want to know what truly happened in the kingdom.''They are now waiting for you at my house. You have to come now. Or will I take them to your castle?'I still ignore him. But another voice echoes in my mind. 'Wulfgar, he is furious to learn of his granddaughter's injury. He needs you to explain.'I clenched my fists at the reminder. Keala. One of my most trusted warriors had nearly lost her life under my command. The poison that almost destroyed her body was a direct insult to me and to everything I ruled in this land."It seems I can't
