elēnítēs líthos means moonstone (eh-lay-nee-tays lee-thos) with the stress on the third syllable in elēnítēs and the stress falling on the first syllable in líthos.
Phonetic Sounds:
I thought I might put them in to make it to the 100 minimum words in order to publish this author note.
g has two distinct sounds in ancient Greek (as opposed to classical Greek).
1. Before the vowels e, t, and y, it is pronounced y as in yes.
2. Before vowels a, o, and u, it is pronounced g as in go.
ē = ay
é has two different pronunciations which are due to the placement of the accent. In energētikés the emphasis is on the 2nd syllable, so it is pronounced kees. In grammés the emphasis is on the 1st sylable so it is pronounced mays.
I hope you enjoyed my little phonics lesson, and if you haven't guessed it, I am a teacher and I love languages and phonics.

Tyler's Point of View "What the hell was that?" I exclaimed. I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared. That monster was straight out of a nightmare. When Avril went behind it, to attack it with her dagger, I was truly scared and worried for her. The worst part was that I couldn’t even help her. Neither human nor wolf form would have helped. I was a liability. "It was a Sskíatokos, or Shadowspawn would be the closest translation," answered Lysandros. "It is a dark Fae which feeds on the fears of those who cross its path. "Its malevolent powers twist the very fabric of reality that it is permitted to feed on." "Not to mention that it projectile vomits black acid," I responded, disgusted at the creature, and thankful that we didn’t have this at home to deal with. "For them to come across the border, there needs to be a major breach," Thorn explained. "The magic on our borders stops them." "Is there any way to seal the breach?" asked Adriana. "There is, but we need to get to Queen

The "y" sound represents the Greek letter upsilon (υ), which is similar to the "u" in "put." The "d" is pronounced like in English. Earlier chapters are being proofread again, and the names are being updated. So far, the second proofreading is complete
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Book 3: The Love Of A Beta - Ch. 30 A Long Way To Travel
Tyler's Point of ViewWe had battled two of those monsters so far. Even though we had a solid tactic for taking them down, I was hoping there would be no more. At least the area was clear of that opaque mist that heralded us being attacked by those aberrations straight out of our nightmares.With the sky clear, Lysandros could gauge the direction we needed to travel. He aimed away from the border and used the sun to keep in a consistent direction. He explained that this sun wasn't an actual burning star like our realm.This sun was magically created by Selene and Helios, two of the Gods and Goddesses in this realm, to give light and heat. At night, if we looked up, we wouldn't see any stars. We would, of course, see the moon, which had cycles just as if we were in the human realm. It was created this way as a way of telling the passing of days. I had so many questions about this realm, but it would have to wait another day.As for Thorn, he still wanted to conserve his powers just in

Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Book 3: The Love Of A Beta - Ch. 31 Fight To The Palace
Avril's Point of View Once we reached Dásos tou Phōtós, which meant Forest of Light, Lysandros was a lot more confident in his directions. He projected confidence, and everyone else would have believed him, but I had known him for a long time. He had been worried, and not just about the border breach. Lysandros was correct; it took us about an hour to meet up with the warriors. The clearing they were guarding was where we were to have ported initially. I noticed that there were two warriors on the ground by a tree, and they looked like they were asleep. The rest were spread out around the clearing. "Chaírete, Naúarche, perimenoúmen hōs ekeleusas, allà ékhomen sovara néa," said one of the warriors to Lysandros. "We will speak the common language of humans," he commanded. "Sorry, Captain, we have some grave news," the warrior responded. "Explain!" The warrior stated that two other warriors known to them arrived here yesterday and started attacking them. The warriors were subdued

Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Book 3: The Love Of A Beta - Ch. 32 Heat Day One
Avril's Point of ViewHeat? What did Tyler mean by heat? I knew I was feeling an intense heat. It enveloped me as if an invisible flame danced beneath my skin. Waves of warmth surged through my veins, igniting a fervour that seemed to echo in the very core of my being."What? How?" asked Thorn. "She's not a Wolf-Shifter. She shouldn't be going through heat, should she?""Well, there are documented incidents of humans who have mated with wolves and have gone into heat, but other than you, we have no information as to whether Fae go into heat," answered Daemon.Well, obviously, Fae do go into heat when mated with Wolf-Shifters. I was the case in point. Anything they said after that was lost to me. The surge of physical and emotional sensations was all-consuming."Enough chatter!" Tyler said forcefully. "I need to get her out of here before she goes into full heat, and I have all the unmated warriors fighting over her. Not to mention, I have no idea how unmated Fae males will react.""Oh
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Book 3: The Love Of A Beta - Ch. 33 Heat Day Two
Tyler's Point of View After making it into the palace and initially breaking her heat, we ended up in the shower, against the bathroom door, on the bed, and back in the shower before we finally collapsed into an exhausted sleep for the night. When I woke up the next morning, Avril was still asleep. It wouldn't be long before she would awaken, so I got dressed to search for some food. We would need our energy for when the next wave of her heat would hit. As luck would have it, a tray full of food was outside the apartment door. Even better, the quantity of food suggested that either Daemon, Adriana or Thorn had arranged it. I brought the tray back into the main room and set it on the table. There wasn't any sound coming from the bedroom, so I took the opportunity to tidy up the room in case someone entered. I didn't think Avril would like anyone else to see her strewn undergarments. On hearing Avril shift in bed, I went in to see her. She was relaxed, almost as if she wasn't in hea

I hope you enjoyed that short story. It was rather important because it was the beginning of the Supernatural Council, which is mentioned in Book 4.Book 4: The Gamma and her two Alphas follow Princess Lucienne and is set just over 18 years into the future. Lucienne is not entirely happy being a princess and certainly is not all ladylike like her mother, Queen Adriana, wishes she was. In fact, she can be a bit of a rebel at times and pulls no punches if you piss her off. Book 4 has been started and will be posted starting January 2025.Check out my I*******m page (nikoradepressedpoet) for pictures of the latest covers. Each book will be available in paperback.

Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 30: A New Dawn
Asher’s Point of ViewAndreas fell to the ground, crumpling against the cold tiles, his body barely clinging to consciousness. The fury in his eyes was still present, but it was mingled with something else—fear. “You may have won this battle, but there are others who believe in the purity of Dragonkind,” he rasped, his voice barely a whisper.His words hung in the air, a twisted echo of the truth he could no longer deny. The irony was palpable; he had sought power through a dark alliance, yet he spoke of purity as if it still held weight. He had traded the purity he claimed to uphold for power, and now, even that was slipping through his fingers.Father stepped forward with the Council behind him, his expression one of grave disappointment. “Andreas, you and your father have sown discord among our people and disgraced your family name. T
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 29 Clash of Fates
Asher’s Point of ViewMy Dragon and I were enraged by Andreas’s words describing our fated mate as a dog. Rin placed her hand against my arm, its muscles tense and coiled tightly, fists clenched in anger. Her gentle touch acted like a soothing balm, softening my clenched fist.Slowly, I felt the anger beginning to dissipate, the pressure easing as I relaxed under her calming influence. The contrast between my earlier state and this new sense of peace was palpable, reminding me of the power of our bond. There was nothing Andreas could say that would make me turn against Rin. I would rather lose my crown than be without her.The tension in the council chamber was electric as Andreas continued to spew venom, his arrogance infuriating. I could feel the Dragon within me thrumming, eager for a confrontation. “Enough!” I
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 28: Truth and Treachery
Christine’s Point of ViewThe air felt thick in the chamber, as if the magic that summoned Andreas and Viggo hung around, binding us in an unseen net of tension. Viggo’s face was drawn tight, his eyes flickering with a dangerous mix of fear and rage. At the same time, Andreas’ expression remained cold and calculating. His eyes darted around the room, assessing, scheming.Andreas recovered first, straightening as if pulling on an invisible cloak of authority. “What you claim is… nonsense,” he panted, glaring at Eiríkr. Fighting the compulsion to tell the truth was taking its toll and making him sweat. “I’ve been… nothing but… loyal… to our kind. This… is a… farce!” He was panting now from the sheer exertion.Asher stood tall next to me, his ha
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 27 The Unraveling Web
Christine’s Point of ViewWe slowly made our way back, twisting and turning through the enchanted passages to the awaiting Council Members. Asher had already mind-linked his father, who assured him they would be waiting. We weren’t the only ones who had news since the archiver from the Council of Witches and Warlocks had found some interesting information.The Council Chambers buzzed with a quiet intensity. Though our alliance remained steadfast, the growing unrest among the Dragon-Shifter populace threatened everything we had built. Outside these walls, whispers of dissent were rising, fueled by fear of change and manipulation by those who sought to close our society once again.Asher stood beside me, his expression grim as he explained what we found in the books. “While we have nothing concrete at this stage, if we do
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 26 Secrets of the Past
Asher's Point of View"So you think he's using his own son as a pawn?" Adriana asked.Her question was answered, "I think Viggo would use anyone—blood or not—to get what he wants." I agreed with Father. This was part of the reason why I didn't want much to do with my uncle, aunt, and cousins.My grandfather had forced Father and Viggo to take chosen mates, ones he thought were acceptable for the Royal Family. Both were well-educated, refined women from noble families.My parents had at least fallen in love eventually, even if they weren't fated mates. Father had never met his fated mate, or at least, that was what he had told me. When my mother, Áslaug (AWS-lough), died, he was heartbroken but still able to function.Viggo
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 25 The Gathering Storm
Asher's Point of ViewThe council chamber felt colder than it ever had before. No matter how many fires roared in the hearths or candles flickered against the heavy stone walls, a chill seemed to seep into my bones. I couldn't put it entirely down to tiredness, even though I was exhausted fighting two battles in such a short time.No. It was a combination of many things. Andreas' smirk, the flames from the explosion, and the insignia of the Purists haunted me as I sat at the table, my hands clenched so tight that my knuckles were white.Rin sat beside me, her expression hard but eyes betraying the same exhaustion and worry I felt. It had been hours since we returned from the first fight, but with the second battle, we hadn't had a moment to breathe. There was no time for rest when the Purists were gaining ground. My cousin, Andreas, was
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 24 Flames of Betrayal
Asher's Point of ViewAs soon as Rin and I returned from the marketplace attack, we called for an emergency council meeting. The tension in what we now referred to as the council chamber hung in the air, thick enough to cut through.The servants had been busy changing the room. It was now a place of stark contrasts. Ancient banners from each species hung from the high vaulted ceilings, their vibrant colours dulled by the weight of war. The air smelled faintly of smoke and iron, a reminder of battles past and future.Every seat around the grand, circular table was filled. Dragons, Wolves, Vampires, and the Lycan King and Queen united under one roof. Yet, for some reason, it felt as if we were all divided by the constant threat looming over us.The Purists were growing bolder, and tonight
Hidden Legacy (The Lost Luna) Dragon Princess - Chapter 23 Shadows of Resistance
Christine's Point of ViewThe days that followed were a whirlwind of activity. We launched joint patrols, organised public gatherings, and ensured that every species—Dragons, Wolves, Vampires, Fae—was represented. It wasn't easy. There were still plenty of sceptical people, glares, and whispered doubts. But slowly, I began to see a shift.In the streets, I saw Wolves patrolling alongside Dragons. Vampires and Fae worked alongside Dragons in the markets to keep the peace. It wasn't perfect, and tensions were still simmering beneath the surface, but it was progress. And I started feeling hopeful for the first time in what felt like forever.Asher and I stood on a balcony overlooking the domed city one evening, watching as the lights of the stronghold twinkled in the darkness of the weir. The air was cool, carrying the scent of snow from ou
