Hidden from human eyes, Obscura Arcanum University has existed for centuries—where wolves, witches, and vampires sharpen their magic behind walls of secrecy. But when Nora—a runaway with nothing but scars and survival instincts—accidentally stumbles through the veil, everything changes. She isn’t human. She isn’t supposed to exist. The last ember of a bloodline buried in ash, Nora’s presence reignites an ancient prophecy whispered in fear and forgotten by time. Now, the heirs of the old Houses—the Fang, the Rose, and the Star—are watching her. Some want her gone. Others want her controlled. And the three most dangerous men on campus? They’re tied to her fate in ways no one expected. The world was never meant to let the bloodlines unite. But the world doesn’t get a choice anymore.

Prologue
To you, my heir,
If you are hearing me, then you have crossed the threshold and the wards have recognized you. That means my fire lives in you. You may not feel it yet, but it is there, waiting. I have been waiting for you.
I do not know how much of our truth has survived beyond these walls, so I will tell you myself. Not the way history will twist it, but as it truly happened.
The mortal kingdoms grew too fast. They took the land in smoke and iron, and the great races fell back into the shadows. Wolves hid in the deep forests and mountains. Vampires locked their doors beneath the earth. Witches and wizards vanished behind illusions. My kind, the dragons, slipped into the veils between realms. Six clans. Six elements. Six prides too old and too stubborn to bend.
Retreat should have saved us. Instead, it starved us of trust. Old grudges sharpened until they cut open the future. I saw it coming. So did three others. Cillian Hawthorne. Selene Nerezza. Alaric Everley.
We built Obscura Arcanum together. Not for crowns. Not for thrones. For knowledge. For peace. For the hope that if our kind learned together, they might one day stand together. And for a time… it worked. Wolves sparred beside witches. Vampires debated mages over blood-wine. Dragons taught flame and sky to those willing to listen. I let myself believe it could last.
My own kin proved me wrong. They feared the mingling of magic. They called me traitor. The first blood spilled was quiet, hidden behind accidents, but I felt every death. When I would not yield, they brought the war into these halls.
I fought until my wings bled. I saw students die before they could cast their last spell. I felt the air shake with the roar of my kind turning against me. When I knew we would not win, I sealed myself inside this house and went to the Ember Reliquary.
It is more than fire. It is memory. I gave it my last breath, my last spark, my last hope. I left a prophecy for the one who would come after me. For you.
The bloodlines were never meant to stand apart.
Fang bound by duty.
Roses bleeding in shadow.
Stars lost to the dark.
Generations fractured by fear and pride.
But blood remembers.
When the Four stand whole, the ground trembles.
What was broken rises.
Power forgotten reclaims its name.
Unity or ruin.
Choice or fate.
Balance does not wait.
If I could not stop the war, then it must be you who ends it. Rise from the ashes of six. Find the heirs of my dearest friends, the ones who stood beside me when the world began to break. With them, fulfill the prophecy. Restore what was lost.
You are the future of Aurelian House. You are the future of the dragons. And the ember remembers.
I will be with you, always.
Seraphine Aurelian

Ashes of Six Chapter 58- Nora
The stone door yawned open with a groan that shook dust from the vaulted ceiling, the glow of Elias’s Concord Sigil stretching beneath our feet like a living tether. The others hesitated, watching me as though I’d been the one who spoke the command word, when all I’d done was breathe. The arch whispered of unity, and maybe for once I needed to stop pretending I didn’t know what that meant.I turned to them, palms damp, throat tight. My dragon pressed against my ribs like it wanted out, but this wasn’t a moment for fire. This was for me. “If we’re going to survive this, there have to be rules,” I said, my voice steadier than I felt.Caelum’s eyes narrowed, wolf still restless, golden edges burning in the dark. “Rules?” His tone made it sound like a curse.“Yes.” I forced myself to meet each of their gazes, even when Lucien’s crimson-stained smirk made my pulse hitch and Elias’s quiet intensity left me stripped bare. “No fighting each other. I don’t care what the Gauntlet throws at us.

The silence that followed Nora’s words pressed down heavier than the stone of the crypt.You’re mine too.Simple, brutal, undeniable. It wasn’t a choice we gave her. It was one she took for herself, and the stubborn fire in her eyes made it clear she meant every syllable. Caelum’s wolf bristled with pride, Lucien’s hunger gleamed at the corners of his mouth, and I, gods help me, I wanted to smirk, to throw my own claim over hers. But the truth sat like iron in my chest. If I pushed, if I tried to twist this into victory, I’d only drive us all deeper into the spiral the Gauntlet wanted.So instead, I dropped to one knee and drew a line on the crypt floor. Chalk and ash from the wall smeared under my fingertips as I carved sigils into the stone, quick and precise, each stroke sparking with faint blue light. Caelum snarled a warning. He hated not knowing my intent, but Nora lifted a hand, telling him to let me work. I didn’t look at her while I drew. I couldn’t.“This isn’t about claim,”

The crypt’s silence pressed in on me long after Lucien’s shadows receded. My skin still burned where his mouth had been, where his fangs had broken through and drawn blood, where his body had forced mine to bend and break into something reckless and unrecognizable. I could feel Elias on me, Caelum in me, and now Lucien carved into my veins. Each of them had left their mark, and I wasn’t sure how much of me was left untouched.I wrapped my arms around myself, shaking, my dragon prowling under my skin like it knew something I didn’t. She wasn’t ashamed. She reveled in it, in the fire and fury and the claiming. But I was terrified, because I didn’t know where she ended and I began anymore.The Trial was relentless. The stone beneath me shifted, a low groan reverberating through the crypt like the world itself wanted to tear apart. Walls stretched and twisted, illusions bending reality into new shapes. I couldn’t tell if I was in the Gauntlet still, or inside my own breaking mind. Every t

The forest reeked of smoke and sex.It clung to the air long after the mercenaries’ corpses cooled, long after the Gauntlet shifted again. I didn’t need to see them to know what had happened. I could taste it in the air, faint but unmistakable, Elias’s fire tangled in her breath, Caelum’s wolf burned into her skin. My jaw clenched, fangs aching as the incomplete tether between us pulled tight, whispering truths I hadn’t asked for.She’d let them have her.The wizard first, then the wolf. I felt it in the bond, fractured and messy, but enough to drive most men mad with jealousy. Enough to make them reckless. But I wasn’t like them. My hunger was different. Darker. Colder.I didn’t want to possess pieces of her. I wanted all of her.Her body. Her blood. Her fire.The shadows had kept me fed all night, moving where the Gauntlet twisted, hunting stragglers stupid enough to stray too far. I’d painted the forest with mercenary blood, drinking until the edges of the world sharpened, until th
