Novel & Cerita The Throne Of Honor And Blood

Together we climbed the long marble steps toward the throne that had once been stained by my blood. This time— the crown was ours.

He was covered in deep gashes, his chest heaving, but he crawled to my side and pressed his forehead against mine. "He’s a King," I rasped. "Abomination!" The scream came from the shadows of the High Throne. Elder Torin crawled out from behind a pillar, his face twisted in a mask of madness. He held a jagged silver dagger, his eyes fixed on my son’s throat. "I will not let a Dud’s bastard rule the world!" he shrieked, lunging forward. I didn't wait for Killian. I reached out, catching the silver blade with my bare hand. I felt the metal hiss, but it didn't burn. My silver blood simply swallowed the poison. I twisted the blade, snapping it like glass, and then I buried my other hand into Tori

A large circular window behind the throne opened directly to the moon, allowing the silver glow of the Blood Moon to spill into the room like water. The floor beneath the thrones was polished marble, white with delicate gold lines, reflecting the moonlight beautifully. Intricate symbols of the Veylra tribe were engraved around the room: spirals, crescent moons, and the ancient mark of eternal blood. At the center of the chamber sat a pair of thrones, carved from lunar oak, a mythical pale wood known for its soft but supernatural shine. The cushions were deep red velvet, embroidered with golden vines. Upon the left throne sat Dark Lord Kaelith, a tall man whose silver hair fell to his shoulde

From the base of that throne, from the cracks in the stone beneath it, thin, dark lines were sliding outward. Blood. It wormed its way into the grout between tiles, spider-webbing toward us like crimson fingers. The throne itself pulsed once, faintly. My Regret Mark burned hot enough to hurt. I swallowed. “Okay,” I said, voice hoarse. “So I’m guessing ‘penalty event’ doesn’t mean we lose points off our final grade.” No one laughed. The House had woken something deeper than vampire wolves. And if my stories were anything to go by, thrones that bled were never a good sign for anyone still standing.

He notices one statue is broken, all that remains is stone pieces. “Sire, I bring you Hector,” Rex says. Rex kneels before the throne. The throne is made from an oak tree found on the battlefield of a ten-year war covered in the blood of the slain. It is a high-back, oak wood that is stained red with the blood of his enemies, studded with jewels along the armrest, with a black cushion forming part of the seat. Once Rex is on his knees, he pulls Hector down onto his knees. Behind the throne is a red tapestry with a living oak tree.

Or they will ruin you again. He could almost see it now: a throne carved of obsidian and bone, its seat glowing with molten power. It called to something inside him—something primal, ancient, inevitable . Zara sensed the shift before he moved. Shadows coiled at his feet, rippling with hunger. “Maxim!” she cried. He blinked, and the throne vanished. The darkness receded like smoke chased by dawn. Sweat slicked his temples, his breath ragged. “It’s inside the bloodline,” he said hoarsely. “Every Vale who’s ever ruled carried this curse.”

North patted her hand quickly to share her joy. “Milo, as in the bloody second prince to the Haedran throne?” Thorne thundered the words, and his face was so red it looked like he might explode in flame for a moment. “I won’t have it. You’re through with him. Do you hear me?” He shouted the question.

Sarah gasped, reaching down, “John!” He looked up, pain on his face. “Do it without me.” Her legs shook but she rose. She placed her hand on the throne, her touch sent waves of energy outward, the throne convulsed, its faces twisting in agony. She pressed harder, her spiral mark flared gold. Then something ancient spoke. “She is not rightful. The throne obeys only the blood of the original bearer.” Sarah’s skin cracked. Black veins spread. Her scream echoed. John roared, pushing himself upright, but the blow knocked him back, darkness swallowed his vision.

He didn’t notice the way my tone clipped, or maybe he did and chose to ignore it. “The Thornevales,” he continued, his voice growing more intense, “they sit on a throne built from the blood of everyone beneath them. You know it. You’ve seen it. They let the hungry starve. They watch people beg for healing, for shelter, for a chance and they look the other way unless that person has a little power they can use. Or worse—unless they’re useful for manipulation.” He spat the word like it tasted sour in his mouth. But I was also adamant.

she whispers. Bianca leans close. “Different how?” “I can see,” Lumina says, eyes fluttering open, bright with energy. “He carries both. He’s Lycan and sorcerer. My blood… Theon’s strength…” She winces, panting hard. “He’s the heir,” she says. “The true heir. The Alpha throne belongs to him.” Bianca stares. “You can see that?” “I always could.” Another push. Her back arches. The pain explodes again.
