A Crown This Cold And Heavy Audiobook Novels & Stories

The ground split again, wider this time. Flames roared upward, twisting into jagged shapes, forming what looked like a throne from molten stone. Kael dragged himself forward, his body broken but his eyes burning with recognition. His voice rasped through blood. “I know that power…” His lips curved into a bitter smile. “The crown doesn’t wear mortals. It devours them. It’s already begun.” Adrien snapped toward him. “You shut your cursed mouth before I break you.”

Granny said as she placed the crown on my head. I wasn’t expecting her to casually drop it on my head like it wasn’t the most valuable thing in the entire wolf territory. At first, I felt nothing. Like I had guessed it was entirely weightless, then the crown seemed to generate some form of energy and expel heat. The heat licked at and enveloped my entire scalp until it was deliciously warm. “What’s this crown made of?” I asked her in awe. “A lot of power. That’s all you need to know.” Granny replied amused as she lifted the crown from my head and placed it back in its resting place.

I feel warmth. A hand. Lightning and flame twined around me like a cocoon. But I’m too far. Too deep. And then— Silence. Darkness. And somewhere, in the distance… a voice not my own whispers: You are the Crown. You are the choice. You are the cost. Then nothing.

The large and comfortable bed quickly induced my tiredness after a long day, and five minutes later I was already drifting off. *** I heard his heavy breaths in the darkness. "Shut up, you bastard." His head covered with a mask hovered a few inches in front of my face, whispering those words again, "Shut up." I wanted to scream, but my voice was choked in my throat. One of his hands reached for my covered abdomen. "S-stop..." My tears flowed along with my sobs. "Please, stop." His cold and rough hand moved slowly upwards; I closed my eyes and pushed his body off me with all my strength. Suddenly, he wrapped both his wrists around mine, gripping me to prevent me from struggling. "You'll pay f

It was quiet, so quiet if i was to gulp loudly, the whole room would hear it. The elder reached for the spectres on a red cushion placed on a wooden table and handed each of us to hold. "As Alpha Adrian's mate, his Luna, in blood, flesh and air, you will rise as the Queen of Cosmos Kingdom when I place this crown on your head." The elders thick voice announced. With my head bent low, I waited as the elder placed Adrian's crown on his head before reaching for my crown and gently placing it on mine. The crown was heavy, it was made out of pure gold and diamonds. I kept my neck straight, giving support to my head and allowed myself to get accustomed to the heaviness.

‘I’m sorry, I did not want it to happen but he forced me to agree. ‘Please, believe me. You are the only man I love and the one I want to spend the rest of my life with.’ ‘Don’t you trust me? We spent a lot of time together so you should trust me more than anyone else.’ Those words were the things that Emperor Claus hated to hear and if Emery also tells him those, he might just lose his mind and trust in her.

comments Crown, walking past me. “You think so?” I mutter sarcastically. I stagger, nauseous. I knew from the start that this was going to happen, yet here I am, clutching and cursing my stomach. My eyes are watery but I have a clear view of the villagers gathering into a cluster around Crown. A grateful and genuine hospitality is on display on all of their faces. Old, young, man, woman. The look on their face almost convinces me that under the cold and arrogant veil of his, there's actually someone soft and caring, but I master my emotion. They are probably just grateful to see him because they can benefit from him and he owns the island. I don't see anything good about this man. The way he

And me, well I tried to hold in my laughter, but it slipped out. I checked the time and saw that it was almost time to get ready and leave, so I quickly ate all the food. Orion did clean up after me, while Crown lounged about. Before anyone could get comfortable, Crown received a call. His expression changed a bit, but he got up and answered his phone anyways. “I better get up and get ready,” I said. As I walked to my bedroom, I was thinking about Crown. What exactly does he do? Who is he? He seems to be quite mysterious. When I was about to close my door, I heard Crowns voice rise in a commanding tone. I froze.

The Weight Of The Crown. The crown sat on the soft red cushion like a snake ready to bite. I looked at it through my glass. My face looked back the shiny gold.

Her steps echoed as she walked towards me. "Three pounds of gold, platinum, and dark magic".

“Though I haven’t spoken to him just yet. I’ll speak with you once everything has been firmed up. For now, though, get some rest.
