The Sapphire Queen Novels & Stories

We hit the surface of the black water together. Under the waves, the world was silent. I saw the Sapphire Throne—a massive, crystalline structure built into the side of a deep-sea trench. It was pulsing with a violent violet light, and sitting on it was a figure that made my heart stop. It was my mother. But it wasn't the weeping woman from the illusions. She was encased in a pillar of sapphire ice, her eyes open, her hands reaching for a crown that floated just out of reach.

Recalling her wedding gown, what were the chances that her engagement ring cost more than a million too? Doctor Winona gave Shantelle puppy eyes. She described, "Oh, Doctor Shant. I wish it were that easy. The Kashmir sapphire is the most famous type of sapphire in the world. Newly discovered ones are extremely rare as the existing material was discovered well over 100 years ago." "What you have around your finger is one of the gems that were mined over a hundred years ago. It's VERY RARE!" Doctor Winona gasped and said, "And I want it! Name your price. Six million dollars?"

I was the first to enter the room before I hear his annoyingly loud voice for even one second ugh! “ Hi, you guys,” Sapphire said as she turned to look at us. We all gasped upon seeing Sapphire. She looked so beautiful while dressed in a long turquoise gown with pearls on her neck and her platinum blonde hair falling over her shoulders in beautiful waves. The only flaw to her look right now is that she wasn’t smiling. “ You look so beautiful Sapphire,” Aubrey said. She was really playing the big sister role even more than Azalea and I suspected that she blames herself for failing to convince Max to let Sapphire go.

Beacons me to take it home. "This one" I whisper, pointing to it before I can stop myself. "Ah," Brenda murmurs to herself, blinking. "A rare choice." "How so?" I ask. "This particular sapphire was mined from Kashmir in the late 1800s when such stones were rarer than diamonds. It was chosen for a duchess by her betrothed, but unfortunately, she never got to wear it." "How come?

‘’This crown,’’ The high priestess picked up the first crown, lifting it, its diamond and sapphires glinting, and she approached me. I let go of Zephyr’s hand and sat down as the crown was gently placed on my head. ‘’with the power vested on me as the high priestess of Eradon, I crown you Sapphire Daphne Hills as the new Luna Queen of Eradon!’’ she announced and then turned towards Zephyr.

Sapphire smiled even more as tears started stinging the back of her eyes. She pulled Cara in a hug and whispered, “Thank you. I will treasure it forever”. She pulled away from the hug and said, “Let’s go. I have something to show you”. She was about to start walking, taking Cara with her when Chase held Cara’s hand. “Where are you going?” Chase asked while getting up on his feet. “We will be just three tables away from here. I want to show her something” Sapphire said. “No, she isn’t going anywhere. Look at those drunk a**es trying to hit on every girl they see” Chase said.

It was surrounded by a halo of tiny black onyx stones. “It’s… beautiful,” I breathed, my voice barely audible. Antonio smiled, clearly pleased with my reaction. “It’s one-of-a-kind,” he said proudly. “The sapphire is from Ceylon — known for its clarity. The setting is platinum, designed to last a lifetime.” Talon’s hand flexed ever so slightly on my back, and I could feel his eyes on me. “Try it on,” he said quietly, his voice low and rough.

Sapphire scurried to an Uber she called and asked the driver to drive, giving him the location. She would in no way risk herself taking one of the chauffeur driven cars from home. All of them are pets of her husband since he paid them handsomely. The security at the gate gazed at her with puzzled looks, probably on why she had to hire a rental when they had so many decorative pieces in their enormous garage. Little did he know Sapphire was silk-stocking billionaire's wife living the disconsolate life no better than a tramp. Sapphire reached the high rise building and pressed the button on the escalator. With each passing number her pulse skyrocketed when finally the gates of the lift opened.

Sapphire asks. Sophia, Marlayna, and my precious jewel have joined us. The other two grab their plates from their husbands. Sapphire kisses my cheek as she takes her plate from my hands and starts loading food on it. I set mine back down knowing that she isn’t going to eat all of what she is piling on her plate. I watch as she moves down the table. I shake my head when she picks up a second plate and starts loading that one with different desserts. “What are you doing?” Sapphire asks.

He smiled fondly and lifted his fingers, pulling my lip from my teeth and running his thumb along my bottom lip. “Of course, that is ok Darling. We have all promised you that we will never push you for more than you are willing to give and if you decide you are not willing to give anything we will respect that and adjust accordingly. Now, would you like to try a different pool? Perhaps the one with Moldavite in it. It’s a crystal that aids in intense and rapid spiritual transformation, evolution and healing. Seems like a gem we are in need of.”
