Lyra POV

They followed Ekreth deeper into the mountain - not by road or trail, but through a veil of shimmering air that cracked like lightning as they passed. Magic here was old, unfiltered. It hummed in Lyra’s bones, sharpening every breath, every heartbeat.

Beyond the veil, the world changed.

They emerged into a vast canyon carved of black glass and obsidian, stretching beneath an endless crimson sky. Pillars of smoke coiled into the air, and in the distance, winged shapes circled above jagged peaks. The dragon realm - not just a place, but a plane apart, untouched by time.

And watching them from the ledges, perched like gods of fire and stone, were the Others.

Dragons.

More than she expected. Some as massive as towers. Others coiled in humanoid form, draped in robes that shimmered like magma or bone. But all of them shared one thing: eyes that burned with ancient memory - and judgment.

Lyra's throat tightened.

Ekreth stepped forward, wings half-unfurled. “They are under truce,” he

  • Lyra, His Second Chance Mate   Chapter 25 : The Fire Between

    Lyra POVThe crimson sky still bled above the canyon when Ekreth guided them away from the Court.“They have seen enough for now,” he said. “You will have your answer in time. But tonight... go. Rest.”No protest. No threat. But something in his voice left no room for argument. Lyra wasn’t sure if it was kindness or a warning.The shimmer of the veil was easier the second time. Less jarring. But still - stepping through it was like passing from myth to reality, from fevered legend to the ragged edge of the world they knew. When they emerged back into the mountain path where their company waited, dusk was already settling over the peaks.Rough-hewn tents ringed the camp. The smell of smoke and pine welcomed her like a memory. Elira and soldiers lifted their heads at their return, eyes wide. One of them whispered a prayer.No words were needed. They’d seen the change in Nyxar and his clothes destroyed by fire.He didn’t speak, either. Just went straight to his tent. No one spoke. Not u

  • Lyra, His Second Chance Mate   Chapter 23 : The Wells of Fire and Memory

    Nyxar POVThe dragon led them through the ruins in silence, its scales catching the light like river glass. Nyxar followed, every step echoing on stone older than any kingdom still standing.The path narrowed, flanked by spires etched with glowing glyphs. The air pulsed around them - charged, electric. Not just magic… memory. The place remembered them, or those who came before. His skin prickled with it.He glanced at Lyra.She walked tall beside him, though her hand occasionally trembled near her blade. Her eyes, fierce and haunted, stayed on the dragon ahead.They descended a winding staircase cut directly into the mountainside. The deeper they went, the more the light shifted - golden at first, then gradually tinged with crimson and cobalt. At the base of the spiral, the path opened into a vast cavern.Nyxar stopped cold.The Well wasn’t water. It was fire - suspended, weightless, and moving like liquid through air. Rivers of molten light coiled and twisted through the space withou

  • Lyra, His Second Chance Mate   Chapter 22 : The Sleepers

    Nyxar POVThe wind shifted first. A subtle change, but enough to catch Nyxar’s attention even before the others noticed. The steady hush of the trees grew restless, leaves trembling beneath an unnatural current.Then the shadow swept over them.Massive. Fluid. Alive.The great wings beat once, stirring the air into swirling eddies that made the nearby trees groan in protest. Ekreth descended in a slow, controlled spiral, his scales catching what little light remained, gleaming like obsidian laced with molten veins. Power radiated from him, ancient and untamed, as primal as the lands they had crossed to reach this forgotten place.Nyxar felt it press against his skin as Ekreth touched down, the earth vibrating beneath massive claws that bit into moss and stone. The dragon lowered his head slightly, sharp, intelligent eyes locking onto Nyxar and Lyra with a familiar gleam of amusement beneath the raw might of his presence.“Still dramatic,” Nyxar called up, voice calm but wry. “I see no

  • Lyra, His Second Chance Mate   Chapter 21 : Looking Forward

    Nyxar POVFew days later the castle felt different as dawn bled into full morning. Lighter. Sharper. Alive.Nyxar followed a half-step behind Lyra as they moved through the winding halls, the scent of stone and old banners stirring under the breath of the early wind. Guards saluted as they passed, servants kept their heads bowed, but none of that mattered to him. Not today.What mattered was her.For months, perhaps longer, he had stood at her side - sometimes her shield, sometimes her shadow. But always, always carrying the weight of distance between them. Duty, grief, unspoken fears. All of it a space they both danced around. Until now.Now, for the first time, there was no distance. No court to separate them. No throne, no council, no kingdom binding them into careful roles.Only the road ahead.The thought made his pulse stir with something dangerously close to joy.He glanced at Lyra, watching how the sunlight kissed her hair as they stepped into the training courtyard where thei

  • Lyra, His Second Chance Mate   Chapter 20 : Plans

    Lyra POVThe castle halls were quiet when she returned. Only the soft patter of distant guards and the occasional flicker of lamps accompanied her steps. The moon still hung above, its pale light filtering through high arched windows, casting ribbons of silver across the marble floors.She pushed open the doors to her chambers, exhaling as they closed behind her. Here, at least, the weight lessened - though it never truly lifted.The servants had prepared her bath as she requested, steam rising gently from the carved stone basin at the far end of the chamber. She shed her robe, the silk whispering to the floor like shed skin, and stepped into the warm water.Heat enveloped her, loosening the tension knotted in her shoulders. For several long moments, Lyra simply sat in the silence, letting the warmth pull at the edges of her worry. But the thoughts crept in as they always did.Thalen's voice still echoed through her mind. - Fault line. Fracture. The one the gods fear.Lyra’s jaw tight
