I used the exact tone Moon uses whenever he wants to sound intimidating. The man shivered. “Are you among the people of that kingdom? You are too strong.” He coughed out blood. “The people of the kingdom?” I squatted in front of him. “What do you mean by the people of the kingdom?

I know Victoria put you up for this, so drop it!” They snapped their teeth louder, growling deeper, like my threats meant nothing. The man threw his head back and howled…long, victorious.

Like rebels? Outcasts? The dangerous ones everyone whispers about. Is this like their territory? Am I in serious trouble? Real, life-ending trouble?

I could feel the shift coming on, my other side pushing up hard and begging me to tear into him. “You’re wrong,” I said, my voice was low, tight and full of heat. “This throne belongs to me, I’ve earned it.” The figure stepped closer, their presence heavy and suffocating, like the air itself was bending around them. “You haven’t earned anything,” they said, eyes locked on mine. “The true power of this kingdom lies beneath your feet.
