First Kings Chapter 1 Novels & Stories

"This afternoon, the rulers of the other Kingdoms began to arrive." My mate warned me and I sighed. This is one of our fears because until now I hadn't come face to face with beings with the same or similar levels of power as Soren, Victor, and Ghost. "Do you know who the first ones will be?" I asked, trying to prepare myself psychologically for my possible reactions. "The Elven Kingdom, Lord and Lady Elyon Wysabel," Victor replied. "After them, the Lords of Yasmerhil should arrive, it's a kingdom made up mostly of dwarves," Soren informed.

"He's been through a lot, and he has a lot of responsibilities as Alpha king. He doesn't trust outsiders, especially humans." “Alpha King?” I asked. “He's like a president in the human realm. All other Alphas are under him” he answered. “Oh,” I said. “After you are done with your meal, rest up. Tomorrow will be a long day for you,” he said before leaving. I liked Chester, he is nice. I thought as I continued with my meal. After finishing my meal, I took a shower and changed into fresh clothes. As I was getting ready to go to bed , there was another knock at the door. This time it was the mean wolf, Duscha.

marks that used to be branded on the servants' skin. The Archivist reached out, and a single sheet of parchment detached from its chest, floating into Audrey's hand. As her fingers touched the page, the Council Chamber vanished. Audrey stood in a white void. Before her stood the First King, Solari. In the legends, he was a golden god. But here, he looked small, tired, and terrified. He was standing over a massive well. Beside him was the First Luna, Nocturne. They weren't fighting the Void; they were negotiating with it.

Isla nodded once and went back to her diplomacy. Kael's eyes stayed on mine for a moment longer. Something in them warm and unhurried and certain in a way that no longer frightened me the way it once had. I went back to the kitchen. Started cooking. Listened to Isla explaining pack hierarchy to the Lycan King and the Lycan King asking follow-up questions with complete seriousness. I thought about five years of building something good from nothing. About an apartment that had been exactly the right size for two. About how tonight it felt different.

“He’s trying to bind to me. To make me sit.” Jayden stepped forward. “Over my dead body.” The figure turned. His face was hollow. But his eyes—his eyes were Aelin’s. Silver, glowing, eternal. “I made her,” he rasped. “You tried,” Ivy said, standing tall. “And you failed.” He rose to his full height. “I am the First King. The Alpha of Alphas. I carved the moon into flesh and called it daughter.” Jayden bared his teeth. “You’re a relic. A monster whispering lies into a child’s mind.”

she paused. It was Katherine’s first time hearing stories about the current Alpha King of the Northern Kingdom. The Domil Pack, being so far from the palace, had kept her unaware of the royal bloodline’s tales. She only knew that her pack was part of a kingdom but didn’t know much beyond that. “And his mate?

Henry nodded. Slowly. Then: "They weren't human." The kingdom suddenly felt colder. Then: "They taught humanity impossible things." Pause. Then: "Power." Another pause. Then: "Immortality."

My senses were heightened, which felt like a double-edged sword with his scent waffling in my senses. “Alpha…” I trailed off, not knowing what to say. Everything in me wanted to approach him closer, but I stopped myself. I can’t ask for more. “You look surprised to see me,” he said, stepping closer. I swallowed hard. My body is instinctively reacting to his presence. “I’m sorry, but are you even allowed to be here? I don’t want to ruin the agreement you had with the council.” His lips twitched, but I couldn’t tell if it was out of amusement or annoyance. “Allowed?” he repeated, tilting his head. “Cleo, I am the king.”

Welcome to chapter one of 'how to take revenge on the elf king 101', written by Sean Cooper, Sean thought to himself, finding it hard to control the smirk that threatened to come out on his face.

The silence that followed was absolute. Slowly, Karlo turned around. The expression on his face wasn't anger, it was a completely blank, hollow, void of pure, unadulterated carnage. The ruthless king who had built an empire on blood had finally revealed his single, fatal weakness to the world. He had tried to hide his little bird, but the hunters had smelled the gold on her gown.
