The Once And Future King Book Novels & Stories

They searched for something related to the forest of deception and the seven kingdoms. "I think this might help",said Natalie, taking out a book from the second shelf. The book had a thick glossy cover and had the picture of a beautiful palace on it. The book was not very thick. And the name of the book was written on it with bold letters 'The History of Elysium' "Elysium?",asked Zane. "Is that a kingdom too?" "Let's find out",said Laurel, taking the book from Natalie. She kept it on the table, and asked everyone to pull out a seat and sit down. Laurel opened the book and started reading.

Cover to cover but books like this is never for my taste and liking. Just when I was to put the book back on the ground, "That's my favorite book. It's the King's last recommendation to me before he died," Prince Orius is already standing by my side and casually speaking to me like a dear and sweet boyfriend that he should be. I look up to his face. The curve of joy on his lips and the glisten of emotion on his eyes that I am used to seeing in mine these few days because a lot of things excites me is present on his pools.

I ask, and he growls. "My people have needs. Our Queen likes to do things differently than our past Queens, but she knows that would be pushing things. We need her presence to remain healthy," he hisses, and my eyebrows furrow. "You have had previous Queens? I only heard about the last King," I reply, and again, he gives me a side look. Beerus- Keep him talking. He is spilling secrets we know nothing about. Not even your father knew much about these things. "Our Queens are precious. They are strong. They always have a King, but our kind follows our Queen. Our Queen chooses a King. He is the strongest amongst us, and he alone fertilizes her eggs," he says, sounding weaker.

A slave. The king is known for many unspeakable things. He kills people for his own pleasure. He's a sick man. "Tierra get your mind out of the gutter, would you. The Prince is speaking to you." Kelly said rolling her eyes. Tierra jumped her cheeks burning up. She shyly looked at the Prince who was standing behind her. "Y-yes your highness?" The Prince squinted his eyes at her. "I asked if there is pie." He said. "Uh..I...i-i" Tierra stuttered but Kelly cut her off.

“Now he’s thrown Chloe aside and is searching everywhere for that woman and her son.” “Really? How scandalous.” The maids’ gossip echoed through the castle halls—until my son passed by and interrupted them coolly. “How fascinating could the gossip of a peripheral branch Coven possibly be?” he said, his tone calm but dismissive. “Is it really worth wasting your time on?” He took my hand and smiled up at me. “Come on, Mom. Grandfather said there’s still a lot of work waiting for us.” I looked at him—so young, yet already carrying the quiet authority of a king—and nodded with satisfaction.

I gesture to Ogi to wipe his lips, but instead, I get McKenzies attention. "Oh my god. Why is King with purple lips?" She screams. I can sense all eyes on me. "Awesomesauce..." I say. He's a quarter of mile away. "You're paying for this..." I whisper, knowing that he's listening. I walk towards McKenzie, revenge on my face "Listen up, everybody, McKenzie is speaking her mind. Shut tha funk up so thy Queen Bee does not need to scream. Lord knows she can't survive much longer without her dose... of atention." And then I tell her "MethHead" and smile.

Soniva Castle, Summer Court Capital, Faerie Fawn I tried not to think about Cassia, implying that she and Fallon were together yesterday. Surely he wouldn't have been with her and then come to me to do what we did. I had to admit, though, that I didn't really know the Summer King and kings have been notorious for infidelity and the like throughout history. It could be the same in Faerie. I was brooding on this when Fallon sat down next to me. So he startled me.

KELLEN The sky was a murky grey, the usual clear blue sky of this continent hidden behind an underlying forecast of war. I have been here before. Just not in this lifetime. Many moons ago as Conri I remember standing in the valley of the vast desert between the cities and the rocky formation that lay ahead of us. I was always even keel Kel, when I came back from the other realm, I was anything but. Slowly I had recognized and started to become the king I was before falling through the chasm.

Yet for an eternal heartbeat, court chronicle and prophecy alike bent around a silent conversation of eyes. The Dragon King had returned. And with him, the impossible future he had once glimpsed in a forgotten corridor—a future braided into the hand of a girl now grown into her own legend.

Comfortable chairs sat beside a roaring fireplace. The room felt untouched by time. I moved toward my favorite reading corner. Then stopped. A familiar figure sat beside the window. Silas. Of course. The future king was already awake. A stack of documents rested beside him. Several maps covered the table. Political reports. Military briefings. Kingdom business. Yet somehow he still looked calm. Like the weight of an entire nation wasn't sitting on his shoulders. His silver eyes lifted from the papers. The moment he saw me, his expression softened.
