Novel & Cerita Your Queen Is Back, Surrender Now

“You-“ Kieffer look at her in shock as he tried to free himself off the rope but all his struggles was rendered useless. He was instantly bound into the ground and pressed down by the soldiers. Kieffer stared at Jeulle with wide eyes as he tried to break free. What the hell is this woman doing? Is she planning to do a suicide?! Going into the Demon Realm with a few soldiers! She really lost her mind! Kieffer gritted his teeth as his mouth was instantly gagged with a cloth. Jeulle smirked and summoned a few soldiers in front of her. She took a glance at his pathetic state and smiled even more. The Queen then waved her hand and yelled. “Guards! Drag this traitor away and locked him in the dung

The Lycan’s were waiting, waiting for something, waiting for the next order from their leader. Much to my disgust, Alpha Zach takes one of Charlie’s hands, his eyes on her as he introduces her as the Queen. This time it was different though, he dropped to his knee, submitting to her, declaring his loyalty to her. She did not fight it, instead she smiles at Alpha Zach and nods her head. Each and every Lycan follows their Alpha and drops to one knee, a universal sign of submission. She looks over her shoulder at me but I was not going to submit, she was not my queen, she was one of them.

"You think you can take me?" I stand my ground, my heart pounding in my chest. I'm scared, but I refuse to let Angie see it. "I'm not looking for a fight," I say, my voice calm now. "I just want you to leave me alone. Can you do that?" Angie stares at me for a long moment, her eyes boring into mine. I hold my breath, waiting for her response. Finally, she gives a short, bitter laugh and shakes her head. "You're pathetic, Regina," she says, her voice dripping with contempt. "But fine. I'll leave you alone. Just don't think you've won anything here. You're still a loser in my book."

’ He replied, making me think about Aurora again. ‘I chose Jade, and you need to get over it, especially when we mark each other after becoming King and Queen.’ I ended the link before he could even reply. I was just walking around the garden ruins thinking about Aurora and how much I suppose I do miss her, was the rejection a mistake? Could I take it back or has it been too long? Jade is the right call to become queen. Why, was I now only thinking about this after all this time? I suddenly looked up at the woman who could make me King, she had said something to me, but I was in such a deep thought that I didn’t even hear what she said.

The silence that followed was thick with years of unspoken fury, love twisted and broken into shards. Later, on the balcony overlooking the city’s endless glow, Jaxon’s thoughts spiraled. The empire he thought was his to protect was a house of cards built on lies. His phone buzzed with a message from an unknown number: The Queen’s reign is not secure. Neither is yours. No signature. No explanation. Only the promise that the war was far from over. Raven paced Club Eden’s dim back office, the ledger heavy in her hands. The survivor’s words haunted her, “the Queen.” The mastermind behind the trafficking, a shadow deeper and older than she’d feared.

⸻ Amara flinched. ⸻ Even after everything— The scream was horrible. ⸻ Lucian stepped slightly in front of her again. ⸻ Instinct. ⸻ Always instinct. ⸻ The Fallen Celestial looked toward Amara one final time. ⸻ Then it said something that chilled everyone. ⸻ “The Queen returns.” ⸻ A pause. ⸻ “So must the King.” ⸻ The world went silent. ⸻ Amara’s blood ran cold.

"That's one hell of a statement. New beginning?" "A rebirth," I said, staring at the stranger in the mirror. The girl who bent over backwards for Miles Falcone was dead. In her place stood a queen of ashes, ready to rise. A week later, the burner phone chirped. "Ms. Rossi, your package is ready," a sterile voice said. "New identity, passport, travel docs. You're clear to leave the country." I looked at my reflection and dialed a number I had saved for a day just like this.

“Leave. I shook my head firmly. “I’ll leave only if you agree to come back to me. Are you crazy?!” she screamed at my face. “After throwing me away, you suddenly want me back now? What do you think I am, Ryan? Yes! I was stupid before, but I won’t let myself be fooled by you again. Then she slapped me. I clenched my fists and looked deeply into her eyes again. “No matter how hard you try, Isabella , you can never escape from me. “I didn’t try to escape, Ryan. You tossed me like trash. Why don’t you fuck your mistress untill you get her pregnant? The entire world knows that you are in a relationship with that stupid actress. So why are you still wasting your time on me?

Ava folded her arms. “Don’t.” Grace nodded. “Not tonight.” Queen looked at the screen. At James’s name. At the man she’d spent years loving. Then she did something she hadn’t done in a very long time. She chose herself. She switched off the phone. The room fell silent. Ava blinked. Grace blinked. Queen blinked. Then all three women stared at the dark screen. Queen’s body was still burning up but she finally fell asleep. Queen woke up by morning. For a moment, she didn’t know where she was.

“If you want a queen, you have one.” Hearts hitched. Knees debated. “But here’s what a queen is here. I cook. I cut. I bury. I bleed. I don’t mint oaths I keep promises. I don’t own your throats or hold your knees. If I say kneel, say no. If I ask and you say yes, make it expensive.” Laughter wet, unbelieving, new. “If I fail, don’t write it in a book. Come to my door with bread or blades.
