Kraken Wakes Book Novels & Stories

Travis; his Religious Studies lecturer, that had sent the letter to him but one thing was certain; He was going to face the devil in two weeks. I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR HERE THAT THE ‘MACROCOSMIC ORDER’ IS A WORK OF FICTION; JUST LIKE OTHER PARTS OF THIS BOOK. IF OUT OF CURIOSITY YOU GO TO GOOGLE TO SEARCH FOR IT, YOU'LL DEFINITELY FIND SOMETHING DIFFERENT. With Love, Stephen. ❤️

The book in her arms pulsed violently, the ancient script on its cover glowing with a dim, eerie light. A warning. Or a call. The figure took another step toward her, and the very walls of the tunnel shook. “You are close now,” it said. “But the Rift is waking.” Lena swallowed hard. “Waking?” The silver eyes bore into hers. “You are not the only one who hears its call.” A chill rushed through her. She knew what that meant. They were running out of time. A crack split through the ceiling. Idris turned sharply, his shield shattering as a jagged piece of stone crashed to the ground. Dorian yanked at the gate with a final desperate pull—

"Why should you enjoy over twenty years of wealth and privilege, while I crawl like a rat in the gutter? I'm dying, Kurt. A terminal illness. My time is short, but I'll make sure you suffer too. "Don't worry, I won't kill you. Living to atone will be the cruelest punishment." With that, he pulled out a fruit knife he had clearly prepared in advance and slashed it across my face. Then, twisting toward me, he seized my steering wheel. As I slipped into unconsciousness, I caught one last glimpse of him shoving something into his mouth. When I woke again, I was in the hospital. They told me Jacob had died in that crash. By the time I finished reading all the entries, my thoughts were spinning—sh

But if I told them the truth, maybe they would take me back to Thornwood. “A werewolf.” I said as loud as I could muster. Collective gasps broke out around me. Gasps of shock and disdain. I dragged my gaze around, confused by their reaction. Wait, he did say this was the ‘Dragon Keep’. The memory of when I came across a book about Dragons rushed into my mind. “...dragons are egoistic creatures who think they're better than everyone. They hung our kind for sport. They're monsters, Eloise…” Mae had told me that day.

Alternating pov: Dawn had barely touched the horizon when the pain woke me—sharp, rolling, electric. My whole body trembled, skin too tight, bones burning. I gasped and clutched the blankets, trying not to scream. The door flew open. “Sera.” Kade was already at my side, dropping to his knees. He must have been waiting. Watching. Ready. “It’s starting,” I breathed, voice shaking. “I know, baby. I’ve got you.” He swept me into his arms, holding me like I weighed nothing.

“I can handle four wolves in chains without you for three hours. Greta can keep her breathing steady for three hours. Lux is glued to the cells like his own life depends on it. Jane is finally asleep. You can sleep for three hours. You won’t lose her in three hours.” Draven’s throat worked. Kade held his gaze. “But if you don’t sleep, you will crash,” he said. “And then you won’t wake when she does. And if she wakes without you here after all the things you said to her, after all the things you didn’t say—” Draven flinched. Greta made a small, interested sound. “Oh? Things he didn’t say? Do tell.” Kade ignored her. He stepped even closer, lowering his voice further. “If she wakes up scared,”

*Aaron* I trudged through the snow, my boots crunching on the ground as a bitter reminder of the chaos that had just occurred. My heart pounded with a disturbing mix of anger and dread as I neared the lake's edge, now a deceptive sheet of glass shimmering under the relentless winter sun. It seemed cruelly beautiful, concealing the terror beneath its freezing surface. Braxton and Winter might have lost their lives there, and the image kept replaying in my mind—both of them submerged, gasping for air, while I desperately tried to reach them.

The air in the Convergence Plaza turned instantly humid, thick with the scent of brine and ancient, rotting kelp, the celebratory cheers of the three kingdoms died in their throats as the horizon vanished behind a wall of bioluminescent black water, this wasn't a natural tsunami, it was the Kraken’s Tide, a forbidden Lunar ritual that summoned the weight of the deep ocean to crush the "impure" land. "The docks will be gone in minutes," Koran shouted over the rising roar of the sea, his hand gripping his blade as he looked at the massive wave, "Vesper, the city's shields are Solar, they won't hold against a hydro-kinetic strike of this magnitude!"

“Kingdoms. Armies. Cities. Washed away beneath a tide of ancient fury.” He looked back at her. “And all of it, Jo... all of it will begin with you.” He gestured toward the ceiling. “They will darken the skies with wings and fins. Tear through the realms like paper.” Jo’s mind reeled. She had heard the whispers. Leviathans. Krakens. Creatures older than the moon itself. Dormant. Neutral. Untouchable. But once awakened, they didn’t obey kings or queens. They followed only the orb.

I shouted. "Fire on a ship! Are you crazy!" Flynn thundered. "I know what I'm doing." I replied icily. Some of the crew members were firing at it using the ship's cannons, but I knew what I had to do. With Yileyna safe, my mind felt at ease and I was the calmest person here. Breaking into a run, I jumped, using the mast as leverage, and gave Madelia the signal… - Twenty minutes later, I dropped onto the deck. Not far from our now steady ship, the Kraken’s burning body was sinking into the water. Its sliced-off tentacles floating on the surface and its dark-coloured blood poisoning the waters of the Lifeless Abyss.
