“Everyone, in your positions. At exact midnight, we will strike.” The royal soldiers scampered away from their original positions and went in different directions as if to surround the camp of their enemies. That night was rather bright with the full moon shining up in the cloudless sky. It was an advantage for Emery’s team but it was also a risk since some of the enemies were also on the lookout for possible attacks.

-- "What I thought was fictional turns out to be real, and I eventually fall under the spell of the two beasts that shift under the moon." Adira and her grandmother moved from Santa Isabel to the city after an accident. She met her "knights" who were interested in her. Damon, a strange young man, and Jasper, her naughty neighbor. They consistently save her when she is in danger. Eventually, she uncovers their dark secret. She was caught between two handsome men who were also connected. And she doesn't know that the closer she gets to them, the more she puts herself in danger. And it might be too late to go back...

For a moment, I hesitated. Then, with shaking resolve, I placed the crown upon my head. The metal settled against my hair, cold and unyielding. I stood there crowned but utterly alone. Luna in title. Broken in truth.

Without even realizing it, I touched the ruby brooch at my collar. It was a present from Edwin. However, the most important thing about it was the tiny camera Edwin had put in there himself. I watched Shirley, lost in her daydreams, with a cool look, and a small smile crept onto my face. She couldn't possibly think I was still the same silly girl she bullied and lied about on Christmas Eve, unprepared for her tricks, could she? After laughing to her heart's content, Shirley opened an app, started a livestream, and tearfully claimed I had lost my mind and was out to get her.

“He… he rallied Akira. They’ve got proof—your paper. They know about the crown.” My heart stumbles, the crown’s power spiking, pain shooting through my head. Raymond, that weak, stubborn person, still fighting, still tied to Perez. Their bond—it’s not just living. It’s daring me. I laugh, cold, the storm roaring louder. “Let them come,” I say, turning to the platform, carving another rune, blood dripping. “This ends now.” The shade-storm swells, shadows tearing through the vault, cracking the ceiling. Dust falls, bones rattling. I feel their link, faint, through my blood-ink, like a thread I can snap. I raise my hands, the crown shining, and whisper, “Break.”

Opening my eyes back, I watch the clan above. A sigh escapes my lips. Then, deciding it would be best to head back in, I set my cup down and go to bed. I tried to fall asleep, but my nights have been restless. I just can’t. Sitting in bed, I look at the closet. I had hidden the crown in Rose’s closet. Getting up, I turn the light on and grab the box from the upper shelf. Carefully, I laid it on the floor and sit. Removing the cloth, I stare at the crown, confused. Why was the crown glowing?

A crown of shadow floated over my head. The Crown whispered through me. This is justice. Heat spread under my skin. Not warmth. Power. Dark and intoxicating, rushing through my blood like wine after starvation. The red roots around my arm became silver. The pain dulled. Then disappeared. The village returned in fragments. Smoke. Screams. Cassian shouting my name. Damien’s face above the square. The Crown whispered again. Take it. Make them kneel. All of them. My fingers curled.

As his finger brushed it, a fresh flower scent drifted by. Maya wobbled as she stood. She looked up at the bright threads. “Look! They reach all the way to the sky!” Far overhead, the lines grew thin and faded. Chapter 80: The War of the Two Worlds. Chapter 90: The Memory of the Lemon Tree. Chapter 99: The Final Door. Up at the very top, a single line beat like a heart. It wasn’t red or blue. It shone clear white—a diamond’s color. “Chapter 100,” Maya whispered, breathless. “But I can’t read the title. It’s too far.”

Book 2: Crown of Shadows Chapter 41: The Reckoning The throne room fell into a silence so absolute it felt like the world itself was holding its breath. Courtiers who had been shouting moments before now stood frozen, the weight of their miscalculation settling over them like a suffocating blanket.
