Novel & Cerita The Rise Of Eden

_Danica's POV_ The past two days had been surprisingly peaceful. Eden worked from home, his laptop perched on the dining table while he made calls and reviewed documents. Grandmother had insisted he take his honeymoon at home, and for once, he hadn’t argued. I watched him from the corner of my eye as I pretended to read, still trying to understand this man I had married. On the third day, everything changed. “Get ready,” Eden said that morning, his tone brisk and businesslike. “We’re going to Stanford.”

Then we will have 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and finally 8, which is 'The Rise of the Queen'. In addition to that plan, I'm working on other books to get ready to launch, which aren't as big a project as this one, and I also have my daily life to focus on. So I apologize again if it seems like I'm moving too slowly, but it will be coming - I don't break my word in that sense, even if it sometimes takes a little bit of hmph to get my motor running - IYKYK haha Anyway, I hope everyone isn't too disappointed, and when the cover for book 2 is ready, I'll upload it to my socials, along with the release date. Lots of love and giggles, Kat xx

"The sooner the better. No point giving them time to clean things up." Back at my apartment, I let out a long breath. At last, I could start a new life. Next week, I'd be joining Renaissance Capital. However, the moment I pushed open the door, I froze. The living room was full of people. Serena. Patricia. And my parents. Serena immediately burst into tears, launching into her performance. "Dad, look at him! He doesn't even care about family anymore. Not only did he quit his job out of sheer stubbornness, now he's threatening to sue me."

I gasped quietly as the instructor’s voice echoed in the Hall like rolling thunder. “Today, we will read History books on rebellion.” “As House Pyra’s Initiates, you must learn not just how to wield fire, but how to become fire. You are trailblazers. Revolutionaries. Not meant for mortal skirmishes or petty power struggles. The true flame lies in your defiance. No one should ever control you. You are destined to shake the very foundation of the realms. Remember this: you are not who you think you are… not until you ascend, not until you become Apex.”

The Rise of the Alpha Luna. The Royal Santos Pack Series. Book Two. ***Spoiler for book one, do not read without reading book one - Fated to the Lycan Prince by Ebony Woods*** Chapter One Turning Rogue. I had been doing so well in rebuilding my life, trying to create some sort of new happiness. I mean I didn’t ever truly believe I would be a happy person, but hoped for some happy times. I had new friends, people that actually wanted to be around me and not because I was part of their pack, they actually felt I was worthy enough of getting to know.

Eden said. "I don't know what they keep thinking. They abandoned me, threw me out simply because I wasn't getting them their money anymore because I grew up. Well news flash, staying 15 wasn't an option." Eden said in frustration. "Like seriously? Do I look like a bank to you?" She added. "Whatever, I don't want to talk about my shitty parents. They're not getting anything from me." Eden said. "On the other hand, we're close to Elijah. Ambrose hacked the government database and found his passport. He hasn't left the country that means, and he was spotted in California 2 days ago." Eden informed. She was happy they were getting closer.

I look up to see what's store is it, and It's Zion. As we entered the store, we were greeted by a tall and well dress man. "Well, well, well, look who finally show up to my store after years of being MIA." The man said. Hestia turned her attention to the man, and her eyes immediately went wide. "ZION!! I MISSED YOU!" Hestia squeal and started walking towards the man. I followed her, then Hestia hugged the man. The man spotted me, as she hugs Hestia. The both of them pulled back from their embrace and speaks.

“We were all wrong. The consortium, Vane, even your father, Commander. We thought the Eden protocol was a lifeboat. A Terraforming system to re-inhabit the earth after the war.” Silas looked up at Kael, and a show ran over my back. "The 'E' in E.D.E.N. is not for Earth, Kael. It's for extinction. Extinction Direct and evolutionary neogenesis.”

It has to be a human with these attributes because, while I always rise again, my humans do not. Over time, I’ve realized that when I’m called, there is always a human who stands out to me, one who calls to me in some way or another. This time, when I felt the call to rise, it was Emmi who called to me. She was an orphan, someone who never had a family, but who always stood up for the underdog. She was the one who would walk through the forest and help the creatures who were injured or trapped. They responded to her, as they would have to me, with trust and affection.
