All Chapters of Hidden Heiress: The Lycan King's Disfigured Queen : Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

"CHAPTER 16…VALENTINAThere was no up, no down, no breath either. There was only light…Silver, burning, and alive — wrapping around me like a thousand hands made of memory.I tried to scream but the sound never left my throat. The Moonwell held me suspended, weightless and helpless, as if I had been dropped inside the pulse of the moon itself.“Andres!” I tried again.Nothing. Just the hum of ancient magic vibrating against my bones.Heat surged through every vein in recognition. The kind that felt like someone tracing old scars I didn’t know I had.My wolves thrashed inside me. Kira barked in panic, whimpering. Veraka roared, she was furious.And… the third voice — quiet and cold, whispered like a forgotten lullaby… “You were never meant to be small.”My heart shuddered.“Who are you?” I whispered.The Moonwell tight

CHAPTER 18...ANDRESMy blood froze. Yet, I saw hope. “Descend where?” I asked.“To the boundary between two realms. To the shadow-path between waking and dying. Her soul is drifting there.”A slow horror unfolded in my chest. “You want me to follow her into—”“—the threshold she is trapped in,” the entity finished. “Yes.”‘NO.’ Czer bristled violently. ‘Mate needs us alive. We die, she dies.’But the entity shook its head as though it heard my lycan.“She will die if you stay here,” it said simply. “Her light is flickering. Her breath slows. Each moment you hesitate weakens the thread between you.”Valentina’s breath hitched barely, and my heart cracked.“Tell me what to do,” I whispered, my voice breaking for the first time.The Moonwell began glowing brighter, rising like a tide around my legs.“You must enter the Veil,” it said. “But you cannot enter as a Lycan. You must let your deeper form emerge.”My deeper— “Czer?” I breathed.Czer pressed against my soul. ‘The old form… the o

CHAPTER 20…VALENTINA“What!?” I gasped, staring at the entity in a daze.Those words… That prophecy… The same one the Moonwell forced into my bones. It's the same thing. They keep saying the same things. That means…My knees trembled, even though I wasn’t standing on anything, I felt I would break apart at any second.“I—I don’t want that,” I whispered, my voice cracking, yet I was still holding myself somehow. “I just want my mate. My son. I am not made for… destinies. Or fates. Or wars. I am just a normal person with my family and kingdom!”The figure stepped closer, mist curling around her like living silk. “And yet— destiny has always been shaped by those who never wanted it.”She raised her hand and touched my cheek.And suddenly—A second presence slammed into me.Black. Wild. Burning like a star collapsing… Veraka

CHAPTER 20…VALENTINAThere is a moment— a tiny, fragile moment, where you forget what the word breath means.That’s what the Veil felt like.No choking. No drowning. Just… forgetting that anything other than stillness ever existed.I stood at the edge of something that looked like a cliff, but wasn’t. I could feel the world shifting beneath me, like the ground was stitched from memories that weren’t mine. Or maybe— they were.I wasn’t sure anymore.My fingers curled at my sides, but even that felt distant, like I was remembering what hands were supposed to feel like.A voice flickered somewhere far behind me.Soft. Warm. Like someone saying my name.My name…What was it?I closed my eyes. The Veil sighed around me, cold and heavy, brushing over my skin like a mother comforting a child.“You don’t need to remember,” it whispered.“You

CHAPTER 22…ANDRESThe Veil did not open for me. I tore my way into it.Silver fire erupted around me as I pushed through the threshold, claws digging into a floor that wasn’t a floor, air that wasn’t air. Everything here felt like a half-remembered dream. Soft, shifting, alive— yet it crackled with energy sharp enough to slice bone.My War Form towered over the landscape, muscles coiled with brutal ancient strength. My fur wasn’t the usual onyx black.Here, it shimmered. Silver streaks, like molten moonlight— ran along my limbs, pulsing with every beat of my heart.Czer was gone. This wasn’t him. This was us.Unfettered. Unchained.The version of me my ancestors sealed away so the world would stay standing. The Veil recoiled violently at my presence, rippling in waves of white shadow.Good. Let it fear me. I didn’t come here to make peace. I came to take back my mate.A distant echo r
