Fall Of Ruin And Wrath Kindle 소설 & 이야기

I was a pile of broken pieces, left to rot at the border of the world I used to rule. Mud coated my palms as I tried to crawl, but I collapsed again and tasted earth. My body was done. I couldn’t shift—Varen had made sure of that. Like some stroke of bad luck, it began to rain. Water poured from the heavens, and thunder rolled above me. My cheek pressed to the ground, and I saw my own blood mixing with the dirt. A perfect metaphor, really. Everything I’d built, everything I’d fought for… trampled and smeared.

“Be warned.” This doesn’t just seduce you. It ruins you. For anyone else. For any future. For the life you thought you wanted. And once you’re ruined… there’s no going back.

“Some argue his twin, Darian, rivals him. But Xaden is the one the prophecy speaks of.” My chest caves in. “Prophecy?” “He’s meant to be the future Alpha,” she continues. “But he’s cursed. That’s why Darian carries the title for now.” I was told. Yet, I press on, my fingers curling. “What kind of curse?” “He loses control during the full moon. He goes completely feral and kills without thinking.” She lowers her voice. “The elders say only his true mate can stabilize him.” My breath slows. “Something about the last white wolf that carries the lightning crest.” She adds.

She was rushing straight at me. Bang! The bottle smashed brutally against my head. The sickening crunch of exploding glass erupted in my ears, followed instantly by the hot, sticky sensation of blood trickling down my temple. “Sylvia!” Maggie’s piercing scream tore through the club. I stumbled backward, my vision swimming, only to see Silvia raising another bottle high above my head, her face twisted in pure madness. “Go to hell!” When the second blow came down, the world went completely black. I collapsed into a growing pool of my own blood, my consciousness fading as nothing but chaotic, distant screams echoed in my ears.

Sharp talons raked across my arm, tearing open three bloody gashes. "Ah—" I cried out as blood dripped from my arm to the floorboards. Damien had completely lost it. He’d never laid a hand on me like that in our past life. It seemed his madness was worse this time around. Good. The crazier he is, the harder he’ll fall. "I'm sorry!" I choked back the pain, faking terror as tears streamed down my face. "I'll take you to Moonridge now! Please, just don't hurt me!"

she screamed, shoving me aside just as a rogue dropped where I had been standing. I screamed when the rogue snarled at us, venom dripping from its mouth. The rogue lunged at us, but a warrior intercepted it. His claw drove through the beast’s neck, and it fell. “Are you okay?” he asked through the mind link, and I nodded. “Thank you…” the words died in my throat when another rogue slammed into the warrior, sinking its teeth into his side. "No!" Mabel cried out, but it was too late, and her scream drew the attention of the rogue to us.

Michael’s roar, Walter’s lead general, made me stumble. "Ahhh!" I shrieked as I hit the cold mire face-first. I couldn't stop. Without even standing, I dragged myself forward, feeling the filth seep through my tattered clothes. Suddenly, the ground vanished. A massive drop-off, several meters deep, loomed right in front of me. Shit! I struggled to my feet, leaning heavily against a jagged trunk. In that moment, the moonlight filtering through the canopy revealed exactly what Walter was so desperate to sell.
