Kingdom Beyond Time Novels & Stories

"We need to cut her off. Now." "We can’t face her here," Lyra said, gritting her teeth. "We have to fall back." "Fall back to *where*?" Aria asked. "There’s nowhere left." "There is," the Harbinger whispered. Everyone turned to him. He raised his hand and, with a surge of silver light, opened a new rift one not of decay, but of sanctuary. The air behind it shimmered with life, hope, *possibility*. "The Isle Beyond Time," he said. "Hidden when the Cradle first fractured. It’s the last bastion of memory that has not been touched by collapse."

A scalding drop of wax splattered onto the back of my hand, causing me to yelp in pain. My parents turned their heads, their eyes brimming with undisguised disgust. "Why are you so clumsy all the time?" barked my dad. I remained silent, but inside, I was bubbling with excitement. That was because I had been reborn, flung back to my birthday. In Doreraford, everyone had heard about Andrea Jordan, the delicate darling of the city.

***Alex’s POV*** “Dad, not yet. Just give me some time.” I tried to keep my voice steady, but I knew my father could hear the hesitation in it. He sat across from me in my room, his eyes sharp, filled with disappointment. “How much time do you need, Alex?” he asked, his voice laced with impatience. "Your fiancee doesn’t even know you’re back.” I clenched my jaw. “Christi is not my fiancee,” I muttered. His eyes darkened. “Your welcome party is in three months. Whether you like it or not, you will marry her.”

The sadness that he emitted was almost suffocating. Stepping into the next memory which is a burial scene, I realize that the woman in the previous memory was Sebastian's mother. The picture that stood near her coffin proves it. I step into a few other memories which also makes my heart break for him. He had lost his parents just between the interval of three months. But this made him stronger and ruled like a true Lycan king. I am so proud of him. Opening my eyes, I wrap my arms around Sebastian as if I could soothe his pains away. “I'm proud of you, my love.” I whisper into his ears.

Rafael warns him, his voice a low vibration against Lyon’s skin as he lowers him down, bracketing him with his own body. Over him, the Stormbreakers finalize their formation—heavy, insistent heat in every hand. “Ours to claim.” Viktor drops to his knees, his fist working with a cold focus as he steals one last kiss before turning his mouth to Lyon’s chest. “Ours to command.” Adrian descends on the other side, claiming a jagged kiss of his own before his teeth sink into the firm, muscular curve of Lyon’s pectoral. “Ours to play with…” Brandon drags his lips across Lyon’s stomach, then over to the ridge of his hip, his tongue tracing a path down to the frantic, needy pulse at Lyon’s center.

"You can only choose how the 'Credits' roll." --- The "Liquidator"—a manifestation of the System’s final cleanup—has arrived at the border! The world outside has been deleted, and now the "Void" is eating the Iron Mountain itself. Elara and Silas are ruling a kingdom that is literally shrinking by the second. How do you fight a ghost who holds the watch that counts down to the end of time?**

“You’re lying. You always know.” “Not this time,” she replied. “Fate hid the truth even from me.” Fia’s fingers tightened around Finn’s. “So one of us is really going to… destroy everything?” Seraphina nodded. “Yes. Kingdoms. Packs. The skies. Even time itself, if you grow strong enough.” Finn’s breathing grew fast. “That’s not going to happen.” “You don’t get to decide that,” Seraphina said. “The darkness inside you already has.”

"That's the number." Harper looked at him, dread creeping into her voice. "What number?" "The clock." He pointed toward the screen. "We don't have an hour." Martin swallowed hard. "How long do we have?" Ethan did the calculation silently, his lips pressing into a thin line. "About thirty minutes before South stops being a distribution center and becomes a parking lot." Harper didn't waste another second, snapping into motion. "Martin, shut down all automated inbound assignments to South."

😱😱😱 The library exploded with silver light. The crack in the sky widened. And beyond reality… The King Beyond Memory finally opened his eyes. 👁️🔥

"Evelyn, I really was only injured. Adrian went to several pharmacies, and that was why he forgot to look for..." When she saw my expression, she stood and limped out of the house. Adrian started after her, then paused. "Serena and I are leaving on a business trip tomorrow. Pack both of our bags." After issuing the order, he grabbed an umbrella and hurried after her without looking back. There was no explanation, only another automatic demand that I take care of them. It was as though I were their personal maid, assistant, and mother all at once. They had turned an ambitious young woman into someone they summoned whenever they needed an errand done.
