Midnight Suns Villain 소설 & 이야기

Elara's steps slowed without her permission. She knew who he was. Everyone in the kingdom knew who he was. Lord Kael Draven. The Black Villain. The man they said had burned three villages to ash without blinking. The man they said could not be killed, though no one could explain why. Guards spoke of him in low voices. Children were warned never to look him in the eye. And above his head, glowing faintly through the rain, was a number. 0 DAYS. Elara stopped walking entirely.

I want to know how many of them shared that beautiful day with us, only to turn around and try to kill us. In the meantime, I also wanted to find out about my kind and my past. Since attacks only happen at night, I’m confident that I can take time during the day to visit Helena. Now that I know as much as there is to know about my parents, I need to find out who this mysterious enemy is.

Why are they trying to kill me? -- Victor, please respond. These aren't law enforcement officers. They're trying to eliminate me. -- My hands shook as I read through the damning conversation. Victor had orchestrated the entire conspiracy from the beginning. Michael hadn't stolen those assassination plans independently; Victor had provided them, had set up the entire scheme to frame Tony for Senator Valdez's murder. I scrolled further, finding emails between Victor and someone named Salvatore Reyes. The name sent ice through my veins, he signed as the don of Dark Sun Cartel, if I remember clearly, that was one of the rival families that had been hunting us across Mexico.

She takes my hand in hers and squeezes it gently. "We are werewolves, not monsters," she says softly. "Our pack is called the Shadows and is led by Gabriel Valley. He became our leader after his father's death some months ago." I sigh and turn to look at her. Her blue eyes look sad as she stares at me. "I promise you my child, you are not a monster. Being different is your greatest power," she whispers, grazing her fingers across my eyebrows. "You'll see," she adds with a faint smile. I stare at her drowning in my thoughts. I think about everything. Me. Them. The pack. I'd have sworn last night was just a dream but I know what I saw and felt. It was all too real. "Your father and I are going

The door creaked open with a haunting echo, revealing a dimly lit interior filled with arcane symbols and books of forbidden knowledge. A figure stepped forth from the shadows, their face hidden beneath a hood. Their voice dripped with malice. "You have come far, but your journey ends here. Silverwood's destiny belongs to me." Malachi squared his shoulders, his voice firm. "Reveal yourself, traitor. Your deceit ends now." With a flourish, the figure removed their hood, revealing a face that sent a shiver down my spine. It was someone we had trusted implicitly, someone who had fought alongside us. It was Selene.

He has given up getting me to walk faster, and I trudge slowly, following his lead, gripping the life-saver and I whisper to myself that I am strong and will make it to Imperator Seth’s estate. I was born strong, my very name, Dawn, meant to strike fear into the hearts of men. I became brave, realizing that I had seen something that none at the palace had gazed upon; daylight. The closest they would ever get would be whispering my name that demands respect. I smile at the thought of this Just Ray stops, interrupting my plans for dominating the court once I arrive. I bumped into him and we’re at the edge of the forest, which for him is the edge of the world. I pity Just Ray, the skinny, filth

I was so consumed by Morgan, I forgot where I was. "Maya," I started but she's bolting past me through the door before I could get a word in. ___________________________ The Villain I brush branches from my face as I trod through the forest, somewhere close to the underground. After some walking, the trees open up to the precipice of a cliff that reaches up like a tower to hail the moon. The sea beneath, beat upon the cliff's jagged rocks with vigour. The sea glowed like moving blue light under the moon's luminescence. Freya and I used to come here on the days we hadn't eaten a thing. The fresh sea breeze brushing against our noses made us forget our hunger, made us forget that our mother wa

They cursed her memory, cursed her line, and wiped her presence from the pack records as if she were a plague. I pause, looking down at my hands— hands that are whole, unburned, but trembling. "And because her blood ran in my veins, every single drop of that foul reputation was poured directly onto my shoulders." I was no longer the quiet girl who brewed chamomile for sleepless pups. Overnight, I became the villainess’s spawn. I was the child of the shameless woman who tried to steal Captain Rosante. Whenever I walked down the paths, the elders sneered, shielding their children as if my very presence were contagious.

Her eyes are full of stars in a way that is not metaphorical — there are actual stars in them, pinpricks of cold light that have no business being inside the eyes of a creature that lives at the bottom of an ocean trench. Black veins climb her throat to her jaw. The veins are mine, in nine years, if I am not careful. "My name is Morrigwen, host. I was the first. The Salt Throne was mine. I burned it down. I burned my own children. The pearl made me hungry and I ate everyone I had ever loved and then I ate the kingdom and then I ate the continent and then there was nothing left but the trench it sent me back to. I have been here for eighteen thousand years. I have been waiting to tell someone

Captain Hafiz chuckled and said. His eyes scanned the room and landed on the human seated across from him. Who would have thought that one day he would hold hands with the Dragon King? Dragon King Bast’s eyes snapped open upon feeling the piercing gaze of Captain Hafiz. He smiled gently at the captain and closed his eyes again, prompting the latter to smile wryly. Captain Hafiz was the captain of the Sun Squad, the very same group that the Matriarch had been referring to when she was speaking to her aide. The other ancients who were here with him all belonged to the Sun Squad. Their goal was to take advantage of the diversion that had been created by another squad led by the vampires which h
