King's Cage Victoria Aveyard Mga Nobela at Kwento

But then, watching the same people over and over again gets boring overtime. Diving into the book, I reopen to one of my favorite parts of the lycan battles. It is the chapter where the lycan king was brought to his knees by the queen, and makes she him beg her for his life. He wasn’t expecting her, or that she would even do something like that. It is what makes me like it more. I feel like I relate to the queen well. She has always been undermined and underrated, then she wound her full potential and—

"This has to be the longest nightmare ever. I'm ready to wake up anytime now." The prince got out of bed and began searching in one of the many drawers for the keys to the handcuffs. While he was still searching, Ava, the young and notorious queen of the kingdom, appeared on the prince's doorstep and knocked before pushing the door open. She remained on the other side of the threshold in her royal attire: a midnight blue gown with golden embroidery.

Exposure could destroy her. Alexander opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, Victoria's voice floated in again, louder this time. "Alexander, I got the key card from the front desk manager! I’m coming in!" Ava’s heart plummeted into her stomach. Without thinking, her instincts kicked in. She bolted toward the bedroom, her mind a panicked blank, praying she could hide before the door swung open. At that exact moment, the door swung open and Victoria stepped inside. The windows were cracked open, letting in the late morning breeze, but there was still a lingering, sweet fragrance in the air—one that didn’t belong to Alexander’s usual crisp, clean scent.

Chapter 4: A Revelation Unveiled As Victoria reluctantly opened her eyes, she was greeted by a horrific sight. Blood surrounded her, staining her bed and the room. Panic surged through her as she desperately searched for her child, but the baby was nowhere to be found. Confusion swirled in her mind as she realized she was back in the delivery room, the presence of the Alpha King looming over her. The stone walls were damaged, allowing the icy wind to mercilessly rush in, carrying with it flakes of cold that were reminiscent of a frozen tempest. Her heart raced as she called out for her daughter.

**AVA** Deep in the guest wing, my phone vibrated under the pillow—a news alert from the Abyss. **[7th_Perfection]:** *The King is pacing his cage, Fox. He’s looking for the Dragon, but he’s too proud to admit he lost the fire. Sleep well. Tomorrow, the Vances won't be the only ones feeling the heat.* I didn't see the message. I was already miles away, dreaming of a year I still couldn't quite reach.

The king nodded and left, followed by his people, and as soon as I got word that they were back behind the castle walls, I called my warriors together. Viktoria’s POV Everything smelled funny in this place and something strange woke me early in the morning. I quickly changed into the clothes in the cupboard that looked most like something I might wear, and tried the door only to find that it was unlocked! It must have happened while I was in the bathroom since I didn’t hear anybody unlocking it.

"Baby, nothing I do with you is random. You should know that by now." Victoria's heart kicked against her ribs. She did know. King planned everything with the same strategic brilliance that had made Adeyemi Enterprises one of the most powerful tech companies in Lagos. Including whatever was about to happen tonight. The waiter arrived with champagne, Dom Pérignon, which King must have ordered before she arrived. Of course he had. The man controlled every variable he could, and the ones he couldn't control, he eliminated. "To us," King said, lifting his glass, his gaze never leaving hers. "To three years of the most beautiful torture I've ever experienced."

The smell of singed wood and plaster permeated the air as my subjects stood in silence; too shocked to utter a sound. “When I was here last, I was but a naïve girl wondering myself the same thing this small group before me wonders. I was raised in a remote part of the world with minimal contact to anyone outside my immediate family; which consisted of myself and my grandparents. When Geordie Brennus, King of Verso, posed as a wanderer to trick me into returning to my mutant-vampire mother so that she could barter me in marriage to Prince Vogel in exchange for an alliance, I followed him like an innocent lamb to the slaughter house.” When the crowd went abuzz over my words, I waited a momen

Now that she found her amazing King, her perfect match, all she wanted was to find a way to be with him… Except, he was her bodyguard, not a perfect suitor… not for her parents… What they discovered last night could never go any further, and the little bit of peace she found last night in his arms vanished, blowing away in the late morning breeze. ***** Kingston weaved through shipping containers down at the docks, keeping a careful eye out for anyone he might stumble upon. It was his day off, but after his talk with Raoul, Kingston had decided to take it upon himself to do a little side investigation of his own and see if he couldn’t find out what Thiago was really up to.

I have a way of getting whatever I want. ... [clearly. even if it is stupid things that you want] ... I ignore her once again. Heavy breaths leave my lips as I approach the Palace. The King’s Castle wasn’t hard to find. The minute I walked through the gates, I had gotten a clear sight of the King’s Palace. The King’s Palace stood like a great black sentinel on a massive cliff overlooking the entire Kingdom. I assume that if the Vampire King — King Darius — stood by his window, he will be able to see the people and what they were doing miles away.
