The Kingdom’s Fate by Stephanie Hudson

War doesn’t arrive quietly.
It tears its way in.
What began as survival has become something far more dangerous.
Every choice I make now carries consequences.
Every step forward costs more than the last.
The darkness is no longer hiding in the shadows.
It’s rising.
Claiming lives. Claiming bodies. Claiming truths I’m not sure I’m ready to face.
And the deeper I’m pulled into this world,
the clearer it becomes that love and power are never separate things.
Some battles can’t be won without sacrifice.
Some lines, once crossed, can never be undone.
Because when everything finally falls into place,
when the last decision is made,
and there’s no one left to save me from myself,
it won’t be my life hanging in the balance,
It will be…
The Kingdom’s Fate.
