Novel & Cerita Ranni Not In Her Tower

To have— "Red!" The guard's voice cuts through my thoughts. "Time." I push myself up from the wall, my body moving automatically while my mind is still somewhere else. Somewhere in a tower with a man in a tan suit who's been pulling at threads I didn't even know were there. As I fall back into formation with the other women, I risk one last glance at the tower. This time I'm sure I see it. The slight parting of curtains. The silhouette behind the glass.

She effortlessly managed Valtor and Zara's schedules, allowing Aurora to rest and recharge. As evenings fell, Annie and Aurora shared laughter and stories, forging a deeper bond. The manor, once quiet, now resonated with warmth and friendship. As twilight descended, Aurora and Annie relaxed on the balcony, enjoying the crisp evening air. Suddenly, distant howls pierced the serenity, followed by blood-curdling screams and chaotic sounds. Their tranquility shattered, they exchanged worried glances. Just then, a frantic maid, Elara, burst onto the balcony, gasping for breath. "My lady, my lady!" she cried, her eyes wide with terror.

on the other side of the vast throne hall stood Tanya Rants throwing daggers at wren , she envied her even more when she saw how queen Eleanor treated her and how protective she was towards her . maids walked around with golden trays here and there , many drinks were served along with something wren couldn't put a hand on as she wasn't familiar to their ways of life nor to being a royalty , she's not familiar with expensive things as she's a mere human commoner, yet she knew she would get adjusted to all of it . Tanya drooled over the Greek god who stood in all his glory , while he checked on his mate from time to time by looking her way, he would relax everytime he finds her stuck to his mo

“Do I need to repeat myself?” A very young woman, no more than a teenager, breaks from the group and runs into the castle. I follow her, ignoring how the crowd of witches part to allow us to move forward. Petra chokes and gags on the ground as the doors close behind us. Queen Ravenna stands on the staircase looking regal, doing her best to look surprised. I find that odd, given the circumstances. Surely, Ryatt would have alerted her somehow that we were on our way. Surely, her witches and hellhounds picked up our scents as we traveled through the outskirts of her territory or a mystic foretold of our arrival

The Thread punished me with a sharp pulse. Kairos noticed. His eyes narrowed. “You’re not certain.” I looked away. “I’ve never walked the full path,” I admitted quietly. “Why.” Because children taken into darkness don’t usually come back out. But I couldn’t say that. Not now. Instead I forced myself to meet his eyes. “Because the last people who tried disappeared.” Rowan muttered another curse. The tower shook violently again. This time the windows cracked. A low sound rolled beneath the earth. Not an earthquake.

There was no fragile, golden-eyed Omega huddled in the corner. Only a single, discarded link of a silver chain lay in the dust. Roran’s blood turned to absolute ice. The world seemed to be spinning with full force. "Guards!" Roran roared, his voice exploding outward with such terrifying force that the stone walls seemed to vibrate. He spun around, his eyes flashing a dangerous dark. "Where is the Grand Heiress?! Where is she?!" A young, trembling guard stumbled out from the guardroom at the end of the corridor, his face completely pale, his hands shaking so violently he could barely hold his spear. "B-Beta Roran... she... she’s gone. You shouldn't be down here."

But it was there, real and raw for just that instant. Then it vanished. His expression went blank again. He looked back down at Catherine's hand and opened his mouth to speak the words that would seal this engagement. "I, Kieran, King of the Northern Territory, formally declare my intention to…" The windows exploded inward. Glass shattered in a shower of glittering fragments. Screams erupted from the crowd. I didn't know when I dropped my tray, champagne glasses crashing to the floor as chaos erupted around me. Dark shapes poured through the broken windows. Wolves. Dozens of them, their eyes wild and feral, their lips pulled back to reveal sharp teeth.

She said, her voice conveying the pain in her heart as she spoke, "But now, you'd have to face the same fate as those who tried to steal my man, just as I did to Paris, but luckily for her, she survived, but I can assure you that this time around, you won't be as lucky as Paris." She said and my heartbeat accelerated, "Die you bitch." She said, and I saw her fingers tightened around the trigger as she aimed at me, Just like a sudden flash of light, I saw my Romeo running towards me, with some members of the corps, but then Cassandra fired the gun and the shot rang out, while I stood there with my eyes shut,

The price came immediately. A crushing wave of exhaustion swept through me. My vision blurred, and my knees almost gave way. I grabbed the brick wall beside me, using it to stay on my feet. *Stand up, Ravenna,* I told myself. *If you fall now, it's over.* Through the fog in my mind, King Charles's voice echoed from a nearby balcony. “Seal the perimeter! A spy disguised as a maid has escaped! Find her!” I leaned against the cold stone wall, breathing heavily as confusion twisted inside me.

’ I thought to myself as I stepped over him. Having gotten all the information I could get regret suddenly washed over me. Being a Vampire Queen meant I had to be on guard always and all for love, I lost countless opportunities to realize the animosity Rowan had towards the human race, I would've discovered his ambitions and cut it off from the root. I was still immersed in my thoughts that I didn't realize when the door was opened until I heard a clang of tray hitting the ground. ‘About time!’ I muttered, turning to look at the intruder. It was a maid, she was trembling as she stared at the Alpha's body.
