《MINE BEFORE THE BLOOD MOON 》全部章節：第 11 章 - 第 15 章

The mountain groaned and the sound rolled through Moonhold like distant thunder. Every stone beneath my feet vibrated and the silver mark on my wrist burned hotter, brighter, until light spilled through my glove. Across the battlements, wolves stared. The battle had stopped, not because the war was over, but because something older had demanded attention. Even the Hollow Kings stood motionless, waiting. The ancient king below never looked away from me, and neither did Kael. Unfortunately, those were two very different problems.Another tremor shook the fortress and a deep crack split the courtyard below. Stone shattered and ancient runes hidden beneath centuries of rock suddenly glowed silver. Gasps echoed along the walls. Diana’s face drained of color. "The Inner Gate." The words had barely left her mouth before another explosion rocked the mountain. The crack widened and a column of silver light shot into the sky. The whole fortress seemed to awaken as symbols lit up across walls, t

"Thea will cease to exist." The words echoed through the cavern. Nobody spoke. Nobody moved. The Moon Goddess stood before us, radiant and terrible, while the weight of her revelation settled over the ancient ruins. I wasn't the First Queen reborn. I wasn't her descendant.

The throne room blurred around the edges, the silver lakes, the shattered columns, the endless moonlit cavern. Everything felt distant, unreal.

Then came the Queen's Mark, the Hollow Kings, the Moon Goddess, the First Queen. And now, I was being told that I might disappear entirely. That my memories, my thoughts, my life, could simply cease to exist. The idea terrified me. Not because I wanted power. Not because I wanted a thro

"For me." The words echoed through the cavern long after Auren fell silent. Thea. Not Lyra. Not the Moon Queen. Not some ancient soul reborn. Me. Yet somehow that wasn't comforting. Because every path still seemed to end the same way. Disappearing. Being consumed. Becoming someone else. The silver mark on my wrist pulsed painfully. Once. Twice. Then again. Each pulse sent strange images flashing through my mind. A silver crown. Moonlit gardens. A pair of hands that weren't mine. Memories that didn't belong to me. The fragment was growing stronger. I could feel it. And judging by the expressions around me, everyone else could too.The Moon Goddess looked troubled. Auren looked afraid. Kael looked furious. That last one surprised me. The Alpha's golden eyes never left my wrist. The glowing mark reflected in them. His jaw tightened. A muscle ticked beneath his cheek. Dangerous. Protective. Terrified. The bond carried every emotion directly into me. And for the first time, I didn't push i
