Shadow King Novels & Stories

This wasn't merely a monster. This had once been a ruler. A king. A fallen king. The realization swept through the chamber. The Shadow King wasn't some beast imprisoned beneath the mountain. He had once been one of them. One of the First Kingdom's rulers. One of history's greatest betrayals. The creature's voice suddenly echoed through the cavern. Deeper than before. Stronger, and more dangerous. "I offered them eternity." The words vibrated through stone. "I offered them unity." The darkness surrounding the prison expanded.

The woman stated making Kydence gasp. “I-I’m sorry. I should’ve known.” The Moon Goddess reached out her hand and caressed Kyde’s cheek. “It’s okay my sweet girl.” “Why do we need to go to the King and Queen?” she asked. “Their Delta General, Shadow Collins and Delta Commanders, who are his younger brother’s, Spyder and Spencer Collins are Shadows.” “What? No that can’t be, all Shadows are from our pack.” “Yes, and they are from your pack through their father, Micheal Collins.”

The door behing him slightly swinging still from Zeus's momentum. Thanion pulled himself from the woman's mouth and turned toward the annoying voice he immediatey recognized; his shirt hung open, revealing a sculpted chest that glistened faintly with the sheen of sweat, as though he’d been in the middle of some heated exchange. His hair, raven-black with a hint of silver streaks at the temples, fell in loose, slightly tangled waves around his sharp, angular face. He was the embodiment of power and poise, save for the sharp glare he directed at his unwelcome guest.

“She told me that I would want to give up. That others would try to dim the light in me. That I’d be called names. ‘Shadow. Curse. Ghost.’ She said all of that. As if she knew.” Ryker didn’t move, barely breathed. Trixie lifted her eyes. “But she said, ‘You are not a shadow. You are not my ghost. You are my dawn. My blood. The fire they’ll never tame.’” Her lips trembled. “And then she kissed my forehead. She bled on my ribbon. And she whispered, ‘Wait for the light. Be the light, if it never comes.’” Tears slid down her cheeks. “And then she was gone.”

How many more dark shadows would darken my life? “I can’t believe you didn’t give up your firm for my happiness. This man is a monster,” I screamed at her as loud as I could after biting Kevin. I wished I had run away, but he quickly grabbed my hand. I thought he was going to get mad, but he started laughing sadistically. He was enjoying our argument, our misery. I didn’t think there were such people in the world. I didn’t realize that the man I had sworn my love to at the altar was, in fact, a man without scruples, without a heart. He was actually a monster. He physically blocked me, but that wasn’t the worst of it. Emotionally, I was a wreck. Everything I had heard so far was swirling arou

If we ever found ourselves on opposing sides of a conflict, he wouldn't think twice about crushing me. The four kings and their heirs occupy the rest of the chairs: Pakstan of the North with Pharaoah, Theo of the South with Thorn, River of the East, and me, and lastly, Nathan of the fuckin' West with his second son, Elliot. The latter gives me a scowl, and I return it without blinking. He is a little younger than father in age, but he is still tall, and his grey eyes are exceedingly penetrating. Without sure, he is the one who proposed Bella be wed to one of his kids, who are more repulsive than he is.

Then I stepped toward the mirror and the woman reflected there was no longer me. Her hair was darker. Her eyes a shade lighter than mine. Her features unremarkable, forgettable in a way that slid off the mind. Perfect. “Even the seer would not recognize you, unless you wish for her to.” the king said. “I don’t,” I replied. The Shadow Alpha’s hunting game was no secret. He held it under the guise of tradition, a display of his strength, dominance, and control. Selected prey released into contested forestland. Kaid’s father loved spectacle.

The pack gathered in a clearing as the full moon rose, silvering everything in ethereal light. I stood at the center in a simple white dress, barefoot on the cool grass. Kade stood across from me in traditional Alpha formal wear, looking devastatingly handsome. Elder Margaret presided over the ceremony, her voice ringing out clear and strong. “We gather tonight to witness the bonding of Alpha Kade Blackthorn and Aria Silvermoon, last heir of the royal bloodline, Celestial Wolf.” She looked at us both. “This bond is sacred, eternal, and unbreakable. Do you both enter into it freely and with full understanding?”

"We just want to be prepared. Know what we're in for." He sighs and runs a hand through his short dark hair. Then he seems to pull himself together and nods his head. " Well, first off, he's a legend for a reason. The worst of the worst. All he cares about is blood." "Blood?" I ask, confused. He nods. "All Thantos cares about is blood. His pack is solely made up of pureblooded, born, wolves." "Wait, I thought he took in all the wolves that bowed down to him twenty years ago. That must've included made wolves."

The old man wanted to take care of the Russian mafia himself so he didn’t let me go after him because he was scared I would end up dead somewhere in a ditch as well. I respected his wishes so I stayed away and let him deal with it on his own but it seems like I was being dragged into their business so now it was mine also. And they just signed their own death by pulling my dear baby into this. They should pray that I don't regain my strength anytime soon because if I do they won’t get out of here alive. They will meet their maker sooner than they thought. There is a reason why I’m called The Shadow of death. “No wonder Dominic is after you.” Mr.unkown said, tightening the hold he had on my f
