CHAPTER 29 – The Ruin Prophecy

Rowan and Kai entered the Oracle chamber beneath the ruins of Arcadia. The air was thick with dust and echoes of the past, the floor littered with broken tiles and faded runes. Mistara stood at the center, her hands hovering above an ancient stone basin, flames flickering with a pale, almost ghostly light.

“You’re late,” Mistara said softly, her eyes scanning Rowan’s tired face. “And you’ve seen him.”

Rowan nodded, gripping the edge of the stone railing. “He’s real. Too real. His fire… it reacts to mine. Everything I felt before… it’s nothing compared to now.”

Kai stepped closer, placing a hand on her shoulder. “We’ll handle it, Rowan. Together.”

She forced a small nod but didn’t meet his gaze. “I can’t stop feeling… alone in this.”

Mistara’s eyes were sharp. “You won’t be alone, but you cannot underestimate him. He is not just a Dragonheart. He is the shadow of the prophecy itself.”

Rowan’s brow furrowed. “What do you mean?”

    CHAPTER 60 – The RisingThe cavern felt impossibly quiet after the storm of their flames. Rowan’s chest heaved as she let her fire settle, but the heat didn’t leave her. Instead, it lingered, coiling through her like a pulse she could feel in her bones. Azeriel mirrored her, hands still glowing faintly as their joined flames wound down without vanishing.“Do you feel that?” he asked, voice rough from the strain but calm, almost reverent.Rowan nodded, her fingers brushing his. “It’s… steady. Not like before. It’s listening, not lashing out.”Azeriel’s eyes followed the fire veins around the cavern, tracing the molten rivers that had once threatened to rip the mountain apart. Now they throbbed gently, pulsing in unison, like they were breathing with them. “It’s… beautiful,” he admitted quietly. “I never thought it could be calm. I thought it only knew chaos.”“You were wrong,” Rowan said, a small smile tugging at her lips. “It’s always wanted balance. It just needed us to find it.”He

  • Dragon’s Mark:His Dragonheart Mate    What We Become

    CHAPTER 59 – What We BecomeThe chamber hummed around them, alive with the quiet pulse of the Fire Source. Rowan could feel every flicker of energy under her feet, threading into her chest and down her arms. Azeriel’s hand in hers burned—not painfully, but with a warmth that filled the spaces she hadn’t known were empty.He glanced at her, his eyes wide and uncertain. “Are you… ready for this?”Rowan squeezed his hand, letting her fire spiral gently up from her chest. “I’m ready if you are. We don’t need to control it. We just need to be… together.”Azeriel’s breath caught. He took a slow step closer, then another, until he mirrored her stance at the center of the circle of light. “Together,” he repeated, almost like testing the word against the rhythm of his own fire.Rowan nodded. “Feel it. Don’t fight it.”For a long moment, neither moved. The cavern held its breath with them. Then, with a deliberate exhale, Azeriel let his flames rise. They didn’t clash with Rowan’s. They didn’t p

  • Dragon’s Mark:His Dragonheart Mate    The Twin Flame Rite

    CHAPTER 58 – The Twin Flame RiteThe cavern settled around them, though the glow from the fire veins didn’t fade. It pulsed softly, alive but calm, and the heat no longer bit at Rowan’s skin. Instead, it seemed to breathe in rhythm with her own heartbeat.Azeriel stayed on the edge of the illuminated circle, his gaze darting between the glowing veins and Rowan’s steady flames. “This… this isn’t what I expected,” he admitted, his voice low, almost broken. “I thought the fire chose one of us. Not both.”Rowan shook her head, letting the warmth of her fire flow through her chest. “It’s not about who is stronger or who survives. It’s about balance. I think it’s showing us what we were meant to do.”A faint shimmer rose above the center of the cavern. Rowan’s eyes widened. Figures began to appear in the air, made of light and flame. They weren’t solid, but they moved like echoes of real people, performing gestures that looked like a ceremony. Rowan squinted, trying to make sense of the vis

  • Dragon’s Mark:His Dragonheart Mate    A Shared Fall

    CHAPTER 57 – A Shared FallAzeriel’s grip tightened a second before the ledge broke. Rowan felt the stone give way under both of them. There was no time to shout. The ground simply dropped and they dropped with it.The world became a blur of heat and rushing air. Rowan’s stomach twisted as they fell through the collapsing floor. Bits of rock tumbled around them, glowing from the fire rising below.Azeriel pulled her against him midfall. “Hold on to me.”“I am,” Rowan breathed, her voice lost in the roar.The fall stretched longer than it should have, like the ground was waiting for them. Then the drop ended with a hard crash. Rowan hit the ground and pain shot through her back. Azeriel hit beside her, the impact forcing a gasp out of him.Rowan rolled onto her side. “Are you okay?”Azeriel coughed. “Still alive.”She pushed herself to her elbows but Azeriel reached out and pulled her down again.“Don’t stand,” he said.Rowan frowned. “Why?”He didn’t answer. He only pointed.Rowan fol

  • Dragon’s Mark:His Dragonheart Mate    The Collapse

    CHAPTER 56 – The CollapseThe moment Rowan touched Azeriel’s shoulder, his body jerked as if something snapped inside him. His eyes widened and a harsh gasp tore out of his chest. Heat rushed from him in a violent wave that pushed Rowan a step back.“Azeriel, look at me,” she said. “You’re losing control again.”“I know,” he forced out. His voice shook the way the chamber floor was beginning to tremble. “Rowan, something is wrong. It feels like something inside me is breaking.”Rowan tried to steady him but his fire burst again. The flames curled around his arms like angry ropes. They weren’t wild in the usual way. They were desperate, clinging to him as if they didn’t know where to go.“Azeriel, breathe,” she said. “Slow down. Think. You’re not alone.”Azeriel’s fingers dug into the stone floor. “It hurts. I can’t hold it.”The walls groaned. Actual cracks spread up the side of the chamber like lightning scars.Rowan’s heart jumped. “Azeriel, you are going to bring this entire room d

    CHAPTER 55 – Cracks in DestinyAzeriel stood frozen where Rowan left him. His breathing was uneven, almost shaky, and the soft glow of the chamber played across his face like it was trying to calm him. It did not work. His eyes stayed locked on the flame that hovered above the stone floor, the flame that reacted only to Rowan. Nothing in the room moved for a long moment. Then Azeriel spoke in a low voice that did not sound like him at all.“It chose you.”Rowan swallowed and stepped closer. “Azeriel this is not what you think. I am not here to take anything from you.”“You cannot take what was never mine,” he said. The defeat in his tone made her chest tighten. “All this time I thought the fire slept inside me because I was meant to wake it. I trained for it. I bled for it. I survived things no child should survive because they told me it would all lead here.” He pointed at the Source. “And it does not even see me.”Rowan shook her head. “I did not ask for this.”“That does not matter
