Shadow And Crown Series Novels & Stories

Out of nowhere, a bone arrow sliced through the air and struck his chest with a sharp hiss. The arrow, upon contact with Jim's blood, glowed a sinister red. His face contorted in pain, and suddenly, his grip failed him as he plummeted from the sky. I dashed forward, my heart racing, and leaped to cover Jim with my body. The Haunts erupted into mocking laughter. "Jim, we've taken apart the bones of the mortal who wanted you dead and crafted them into these arrows. Take one more step and we'll pin you down in front of your own troops!"

She felt the pendant warm against her chest, and the echoes of the Crown’s magic pulsed faintly beneath her fingertips. She closed her eyes, letting the shadows touch her mind. The whispers were soft now, indistinct, reminders of what had been. But she no longer trembled. Instead, she embraced the memory, the warning, the shadow, knowing that it had made her stronger. The Heir’s Shadow was gone from the streets, neutralized and mapped, but it remained a quiet reminder, a testament to the trials endured, the battles survived, and the vigilance required to keep the darkness at bay.

“You called me once. You made me from your fire and your fear. Now I return for my purpose.” Zara’s wards flared instinctively, runes flashing around them, but the shadow only tilted its head. “You cannot bind what was born from binding.” Ruby rose to her feet, sword in hand, the Crown’s fire snaking down the blade. “Say your purpose quickly before I scatter you back into ash.” The shadow regarded her with something like amusement. “You carry the Crown, daughter of ashes. You burn with its weight, but you do not understand its price. I do.”

The great doors close with a sound like breaking bones, leaving me alone with the ache of this cursed crown and the weight of a kingdom built on graves. The crown itself pulses against my temples, its once-brilliant gold now tarnished to the color of old blood. It used to shine like captured sunlight, a beacon of hope and righteous rule. Now it hums with an endless network of hairline cracks, each fracture a spider's thread of corruption spreading deeper into the metal and into me. Each break is a reminder that nothing in this world remains unbroken: not thrones built on noble intentions, not bloodlines stretching back to heroes of legend, not oaths sworn under starlight with hearts full of

“On your signal, Shadow Heir.” Eolan inhaled, the cold coiling in his chest. His shadow stretched unnaturally long across the snow, tendrils unfurling like smoke. “Now,” he whispered. The riders surged forward. Hooves thundered, steel flashed, and Eolan’s shadow stormed ahead—snaking around enemy legs, yanking men from their saddles, snuffing out torchlight in bursts of inky darkness. The mercenaries broke formation in panic. Eolan rode straight through their ranks, his blade finding gaps in armor, his shadow twisting into jagged spears that struck with lethal precision.

I had already been planning to show Leanna this beach and have her go for a run here, but I hadn’t realized that the reason behind her unwillingness to shift was because she had never been allowed to before. I’m starting to wonder what grudge Princess Vivian could possibly have had against Leanna. My mate is well read, highly educated, and she knows how to carry herself. If she was being groomed to be the princess’s shadow, she had to be perfect in that role. Shadows are not unheard of in the wolf kingdoms, but they are usually concealed, to be used in times of danger. From what I understand, Leanna’s existence was known to everyone in that palace.

The crown on his head pulsed erratically, veins of dark energy cracking across its surface like lightning trapped in metal. Korran turned toward me, his eyes burning with fury and something else—fear. “You should have stayed hidden, Jacob,” he growled, though his voice lacked its usual certainty. “You cannot comprehend what you are interfering with.” “I understand enough,” I shot back, circling him carefully. “That thing is killing you. And I’m going to make sure it finishes the job.” Before he could respond, the crown flared violently. The surge of energy that erupted from it was unlike anything I had felt before. It wasn’t controlled power; it was raw, chaotic shadow spilling outward in a

Whatever she’s hiding, she’s spending real money to keep it hidden. Damien stared at the message until the screen went dark. The necklace. He’d been trying not to think about it, but it kept circling back like a song stuck in his head. The pendant Seraphina had been wearing was a gold chain with a red gemstone. Not ruby. Something darker. Garnet, maybe. The setting was unusual, an asymmetric bezel with a tiny vine detail along the bail. He’d noticed it because it reminded him of— No. He got up from the chair so fast it rolled backward into the bookshelf. He crossed the room, opened the bottom drawer of the cabinet by the window, the one he kept locked, the one that held things he pretended d
