Sofia The First Elena And The Secret Of Avalor Novels & Stories

******************************* Elena’s POV Later , when Leo is sticky and happy and watching cartoons with the volume too loud, I escape to the balcony. The city is a glitter bomb thirty-six floors below . The wind whips my hair across my face . I pull the locket out from under the T-shirt . To Isabel , from Miguel – Eco-Tech forever 1986. I trace the words with a fingernail that still has syrup under it . My mother’s name feels like a bruise I didn’t know I had . I want to believe Victoria. I want to believe a woman I love like a grandmother wouldn’t lie to destroy me.

She walked toward Lily. Lily felt her blood turn to ice. Sofia moved with a lethal, feline grace, her presence dwarfing the room. She stood inches away, reaching out to trace the line of Lily’s jaw with a manicured fingernail. Lily didn't flinch, though she wanted to scream. She looked into Sofia’s eyes and saw the dark, bottomless history of the Vallocchi empire reflected there. "You’re just a temporary vessel," Sofia whispered, her voice a low, intimate promise of pain. "A placeholder for a debt that can only be paid in blood. You think he loves you? You think this ring, this engagement, this lie—it’s about you?"

Elena’s POV I am sick of them all treating me like trash because I used to be a maid and now fortune has finally smiled on me, I am equal to the Luna due to the fact that I am pregnant for the Alpha. I really wanted to believe that the fake pregnancy would keep me safe, but I knew it might not.

I conclude. "There's one thing that really stuck out to me, though. Selene very specifically told Nia that she was special and the way she can pass through our bonds and be with her mates... Plus, her fur is Silver... This was something that my mom was really adamant I needed to hide from others. I think she is the key to all of this," I add quickly. I can see Seth and Leon thinking about what I'm saying. I couldn't read their expressions, but they didn't look all that surprised, and neither did Liam after I had explained everything to him as well.

“Three days. And those three days have been enough to turn everything upside down. Your name has travelled wide. Betting houses getting rich off the name, Royal Wife Selena of Calantha. You have a following now. Some of the packs believe you’re blessed by the goddess herself. They call you the first daughter of the moon goddess and even have a symbol of three arrows to represent you,” My head spun. All in three days. “This is crazy. So all of Devania knows about the contest now,” I muttered in shock. “All of Devania?” Rylan crossed his arms as an amused smile tugged on his lips. “Try the entire continent of Avaloria. You, Selena just because famous for your little stunt,”

Luna screamed, even as she spread herself thinner and thinner across the sanctuary, trying to hold it together as it fell apart around her. Elena, seeing what Luna was doing, did the same thing. She withdrew from the fight and focused entirely on helping Luna maintain the sanctuary's structure, forgetting about defending herself against Lilith's assault. The primordial being crushed Elena's consciousness, and the former anchor fragmented into near-nothingness. But her sacrifice meant that the sanctuary held just a little longer. Held just long enough for the refugee species to understand what was happening and begin to organize themselves.

A mate who gives me certainty. I take a shaky breath, forcing the words through cracked lips. In the name of the Moon Goddess,” I whisper, my voice trembling. “I, Nova Kingsley, Alpha of the Arcane Pack... hereby reject Alexander Weston, Alpha Heir of the Oracle Pack, as my fated mate.” My voice breaks. And another sob tears through me as I force the words out, knowing I’ll have to say them to him. Then the door opens again. I knew it was her before I even looked. The scent of honey and jasmine, too sweet, too manufactured, fills the room like poison. Bianca.

I replied, kindly. "We do. She'll be here soon," Ava replied with such conviction my breath caught. At the time, I dismissed her words as the ranting of a 7-year-old girl. Ava had been obsessed with Alyssa since our Luna-to-be left. In fact, when I think back, Ava knew Alyssa had left before anyone told her. And she'd called Alyssa the Luna that night of the bonfire attack, well before anyone else knew who she was. And that was the first time I'd actually put some stock that the girl did have some kind of different power. Now, that memory gives me the confidence to believe I will find Alyssa tonight, and I will bring her home.

“Do you agree with it?” A pause. “I observe it,” she replied. Back at the Foundation, Elara’s phone vibrated. Sofia. “Lunch,” her voice said gently. “Now?” “Yes.” No explanation. Just presence. They met at a quiet terrace café overlooking the canal. No cameras. No corporate staff. Just two women and soft autumn light. Sofia didn’t waste time. “They’re thinning your circle.” “Yes.” “Does Alessandro know?” “Yes.” “And what is he doing?”

The confession against his front door that felt like it cost him everything. “Yes,” I whisper. “I think I do.” “Then you need to fight for him. Not just let him take the fall while you hide.” “I’m not hiding…” “You’re not fighting either.” Sofia stands, starts pacing my small apartment. “You’re letting him decide your future. Letting David control the narrative and that bitch Rebecca is pushing you around.” She stops, looks at me. “The Elena I know doesn’t let anyone push her around. She’s brilliant, stubborn and takes exactly zero shit. Where’s that girl?”
