Queen's Shadow Novels & Stories

Leia retorted, causing a chuckle to escape Serena’s lips. The Queen’s smirk grew as she locked eyes with her husband. He quirked his brow knowingly, unsure whether to be amused by her excitement or concerned. It was usually the latter, he was most commonly the guinea pig to her experiments. As her palms raised, wind began circulating in a whirlwind format around each of the rogues. Confusion and awe took over the expression of Shadow members as they watched the scene unfold. The speed of the wind quickened as the Queen continued to raise her palms, the whirlwinds closing in on each of them.

“It feels… like it’s part of me. But it scares me.” Aro’s gaze was fixed on her, almost reverent. “She is no longer just the heir. She is the queen reborn. And soon, she will have to claim it whether she wants to or not.” The Shadowborn tilted its head, unblinking. Then, slowly, it dissolved into a column of mist, retreating into the dark forest. Ryan exhaled shakily, lowering his hands slightly. “That was… too close,” he said. “And it’s only the beginning.”

The freaky end of days was coming. I faced the camera, my voice steady for all the people in the city to hear. "The freaky apocalypse is here, folks. I'm going to help you out as best I can. First up, find cover where the wind can't get you, subways, basements, factories, banks, any safe spot." Lights flickered on in every underground parking lot. The ground rumbled with a deep roar, setting the stage for Jim as he led his crew of infant spirits into a clash with the Haunts that sliced through the wind.

I never could have anticipated that the shadows of her past were already closing in. I had brutally rejected Raegan right after she laid her heart bare to me. My chest had physically ached as I forced those cold, deceitful words out of my mouth, shattering her spirit. It was an act of pure, unadulterated cowardice, but my fear had won the battle. And because of that cowardice, she was now in mortal danger.

Roy was gone. Putting down his wine glass, Cameron felt something amiss. He looked to the door and asked hesitantly, “Do you know Roy Chester?” Willow kept her head down. “No.” Cameron was not surprised with her answer since Willow was just a junior employee of a small trading firm. Perhaps he had read too much in the situation.

, said a voice behind Lilith. She turned to see Sheryl standing behind her. Lilith took a final glance at the couple and turned away, not saying a word as she resumed her path down the carpet with Sheryl trailing behind. The spell she had cast earlier on the crowd seemed to have fizzled away. The crowd’s energy had shifted, their attention no longer entirely hers.

She glanced at Maya and Kira, their wolves tense, confirming they felt it too—a slimy, smoky presence targeting only the women. “Lucas, more on Nightshade,” Aurora mindlinked, her voice steady despite the unease coiling in her chest. “Anything that explains this energy.” Lucas’s chestnut wolf surged to the center, his golden eyes sharp. “Nightshade rivals Silver Moon and Shadowfang in legacy,” he began, his voice clear through the link. “Centuries ago, twin alphas Fenrir and Faber Nightshade were born to lead Shadowfang. They fell for the same she-wolf, fated to Faber. Heartbroken, Fenrir founded Nightshade, carving a territory steeped in the land’s spirits. Their rituals, passed down throug

I plead, and she looks into my eyes, searching for any hesitation, but when she doesn’t, she drops my hands and moves away. “Fine, I’ll tell you.” My excitement is swiftly wiped away by her next words. “The shadow god is an abomination. He was never supposed to be born. He’s the product of an unholy ritual, an anomaly.”

The door to Marcus Wayne’s private room creaked open, and I stepped inside hesitantly. My heels clicked against the hardwood floor, a sound that felt deafening in the suffocating silence. The dim light cast long shadows across the elegant yet eerie room, with its heavy drapes and dark leather furniture. Every instinct screamed at me to turn around, to walk out of this mess, but I couldn’t. My boss’s warning echoed in my mind. "A favor for a favor is how things are run," he’d said, his tone leaving no room for argument.

Its eyes were as red as blood and its presence gives a chilling and horrifying feel. “The two witch kids...have you heard about the prophecy?” The twins looked at each other being puzzled. “Oh, I see, I would be glad that I will be the one to tell your fate...” The evil of shadows made them confused. “...if one of you succeeds to become the ruler of the separate worlds, it will be the end of everything.” As Falla moved her pace to her brother trying to hide at her twin's back, Talon eventually vanished and was nowhere to be found.
