The Forsaken Pendant Novels & Stories

“Maybe we could do something better,” “Keep walking, then,” Zephyr muttered, sulking now. “Right past everything that calls to you. Her. The strap. Yourself.” “I’m not doing this with you,” I bit back, my voice low. “Too late,” he said with a grin in his tone. “You already are.” I paced past stalls draped in woven fabrics and carved ornaments, ignoring the distractions until something halted my steps. A pendant. Small, crescent-shaped. Black opaque, wrapped in fine silver wire. The design wasn't too much, but it radiated something deeper…like control forged from chaos. Like her.

But there was something colder in her stare, like she was thinking of the kind of burial to give me when I finally get killed. Forced myself to sit upright, even though my arms felt like jelly. “Why am I here?” My voice sounded wrecked. “Why hasn’t he just finished me off?” She just snorted, like it was a stupid question. “Eat. You’ll need strength. Whatever he’s got planned out for you, you’ll need it.” She turned to leave, but something slipped out of her collar. A pendant, black silver, and a weird crest carved into it. My stomach dropped. I’d seen that before.

His eyes locked onto the pocket of my ritual clock, where the end of a braided black cord peeked out. His hand darted into my pocket and roughly pulled out a clear-quartz pendant. It was a protective relic Joel had bestowed upon me when I left. The crystal was flawless and almost luminous. Its facets were carved with intricate banishment sigils. “Did you plan to bless us with this?” Ted held the pendant up to his face, which was full of contempt.

Together, our expedition continued following her ethereal form deeper into the citadel's magnificent, ancient architecture. The ghostly guardian's expression carried obvious, considerable gravity as she prepared delivering whatever difficult explanation this important revelation ultimately required throughout this unprecedented, remarkable encounter. "The pendant you currently carry," she said quietly, addressing me directly despite the unprecedented nature of this remarkable, ethereal confrontation, "must be permanently surrendered toward the original seal's considerable restoration, severing your own connection toward its protective magic forever, regardless of whatever danger such permane

he instructs with the most excitement I'd ever seen him display. ​Picking the bracelet up carefully, I turn it as I bring it closer for me to see. The blurred image wasn't doing enough for me, so I set the box down before letting my fingers run over the shiny treasure. It takes me a moment to recognize the dip of the outline to be a music note, the gesture making me smile widely as I look up at Blue. ​"I love it," I state without hesitation. "I love it. I love it. I love it."

"Please don't brush me off." "That's why I'm right here by your side," said Lydia blocking my way. "Thanks for your concerns, Lydia." "I can see you're right here with me, but please understand that it's not you I need right now," I shut Lydia as I headed for the balcony. "I...I know... I understand who you'd want to see right now, but I'm sorry, besty." "It's not like you have much of choice." "Jerry is long gone." "No matter how hard you try to push me away, I'm not giving up on you anytime soon till I bring you back to reality," said Lydia as she joined on the seat on the balcony.

"No, I'm not saying that. I would never reject my mate. I trust the moon goddess. I just have never heard of somebody not being able to reject a mate bond. I'm already feeling drawn to her. I'm fighting to keep Percy from taking control and tearing that door down to mark her on the spot." I hear the man named Kian laugh. "Well man, maybe she just blessed you extra good. Let me leave so you can wake your sleeping beauty and I'm going to go and talk to the elders. Meet me over there when you are ready. " Kian starts laughing again as I hear a door open and close. I listen to footsteps approach my door followed by a small knock. "Yes?" I ask. "May I come in?" Talon asks, sounding almost nervous

"They live among us Walk-in our dreams And see right through Our deepest desires They hear our thoughts. And prey on our fears Their soft voices Echo in our minds with promises of forever Darkness falls They heed the call of thirst The night belongs to them Eyes burn red with hunger It's our blood they crave and it's our bloodline They wish to enslave When the birth of a new day Peaks over the horizon And our shadows rise to meet them They retreat to their sanctums And seek solace in dark places In the sun, we find comfort In the light, they disappear They are The Forsaken..." Cadence said the words out loud over and over, trying to make sense of them. After a while, though, she stopped tryi

Quanno could take advantage of the way Stefan dismissed him as a threat, but Stefan had no doubt he could gain the upper hand again. “I need a drink of water. Don't you?” Stefan said and put an arm around Quanno’s shoulders. Quanno recoiled and tried to step out of his arm. Stefan let him go with a chuckle. “Come and you can tell me about this relic you are looking for.” “We seek a pendant- the key to the next great hero.” He meowed the words. “So what will the pendant look like? How will I know what the right one is.” “It was forged from the old white gold mines.”

Not only did all the green fog around them disappear, but even the red fog became thinner. Soon, the red fog in the valley began to fade more and more. The old woman stared at Sebastian in shock. She didn't even dare to move, because the emerald pendant that Sebastian was holding contained the spell for reincarnation. It was the Lumigo pendant, which was one of the eight sacred vessels! "W-Who are you?" the old woman asked in shock as she stared at Sebastian. "You are not worthy of knowing." As Sebastian spoke, he put the Lumigo pendant away. The red fog around them had dispersed completely, and sunlight shone straight down on them. The old woman stood in the sun, but she did not have a shad
