I wake up in my bed in the temporary hospital having no recollection of how I got here. The last thing I remember was being in class and watching Ajax and Anala practice combining their elements.

‘Ask Ajax.’ It’s like there’s a voice in my head that just spoke to me. I look around my room.

“Hello?”

The door to my room opens and Kaylani walks in. “Hey, there she is. How are you feeling?”

“Umm, good, I guess.”

“You guess?”

“I … I sort of don’t remember anything that happened yesterday afternoon. I don’t remember coming back to my room or going to bed.”

“What’s the last thing you remember?” she asks and I tell her that it was being in her elemental manipulation class.

“Ajax is bringing you breakfast. He’s asked if he can be the one to tell you about yesterday.”

“Something happened?” I ask, getting nervous.

“You don’t need to be afraid. Several of us talked to your shifter yesterday. She came forward. But she talked to Ajax the longest. Wait for him. He’ll explain everything. We have a mee

So awesome- so many are taking her power irrationally. Of course it makes sense she's more powerful than anything, when great powers are used for evil, she would have to be to overcome it, simple ♡

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 63: Ajax

    “Umm, I’m really excited that my mate is pregnant and that I’m going to have a little girl. But uh, how is Emmi supposed to deliver a flaming bird?” I ask, looking from my dad to my mom.“Phoenix says she has a human form. She’s just special and can shift already. Phoenix said our daughter did it when she couldn’t reach you and it was frustrating her so she shifted and now she shifts every time you’re around and she’s awake so she can connect with you,” Emmi says to me.I look at Kaylani and see the same shock on her face that I know is on mine. Even dragons take five years to have their first shift. Wolves take ten years. My daughter is still in the womb and is already able to shift?“We should talk to Yhendorn, see if he’s found any additional information on Phoenix,” Kaylani says.“It won’t help,” Emmi says, looking at us. “She’s never had a child before. Phoenix has always been the only phoenix.”“It sounds, however, like your daughter has an incredible sense of self-awareness as

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 62: Emmi

    About a month after Doc Everett told us that we were pregnant, my stomach popped out. Doc said it probably means that my gestation period will be shorter than a human’s, maybe six to seven months.Ajax couldn’t be happier. Phoenix is alive and now our child is growing in a way that he can see. Every chance he gets, he touches me so he can see my body light up. He especially likes going down on me because it puts him closer to Phoenix and her flames ignite inside his mouth. He says it’s like she’s tickling his tongue and the two them play together while he makes me come over and over again. He said it feels like he can taste both of us when he does that and he can’t get enough of the taste.I’m not complaining. I just feel like I’m the lucky one in all of this. I have my mate. I have my shifter. I’m pregnant with our child. And I reap the benefits of Ajax and Phoenix playing together.At night after he and Phoenix have turned me into a quivering mass and he’s made love to me, igniting b

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 61: Elio

    Ajax warned me that yet another fucking elf wants to claim me. The problem is, the fire dragon in me recognized her as my mate immediately. A part of me was thrilled to find out that she wasn’t just an elf, but an elf princess. Add to that, she’s gorgeous, graceful, powerful, and ethereal in the way that elves are. She walks with a confidence that I admire, and has a gaze so intense, it’s hard for me to hold her gaze. But I won’t back down.Being part animal now is strange. I’ve become much more instinctual than I used to be. When you add in my difficult life until I came to live here, it’s shaped me into the strong man that I am.So, no, I don’t back down and I don’t look away, even when it’s announced that Princess Keya put a claim on me. Since Kaylani added that each claimant had to identify their reasons for claiming a dragon, the entire school now knows that Keya is my mate.“Damn, Elio. Should I be happy for you, or pissed for you?” Valko, the man who is as close as a brother as

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 60: Emmi

    After the trials, things mostly went back to normal. We had a new group of students arrive, replacing the ones who had died in the war, which included a new group of elves and werewolves.Ajax was walking me to class one day when Nesterin stopped us. He had been very vocal about the double standard for claiming dragons since Phoenix claimed Ajax. But, he wasn’t one of the ones who left. He also wasn’t one of the elves who was constantly putting their name in to claim a dragon one after another, which Kaylani finally stopped. She said it wasn’t a ‘fight until you get lucky’ claiming process. You either had to have a valid reason to want to claim the dragon, or you were their fated mate.The elves had become even more frustrated by that, saying that there shouldn’t be qualifications on claiming a dragon. If you can survive the claiming process, you should be able to put in as many claims as you want. To which, the Elementals replied if that was the case, then death would be allowed back

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 59: Ajax

    ** Trigger Warning: ViolenceThe day after Emmi and I found out she was pregnant, Tesha approached us.“Hey, Tesha. How are you?” Emmi asks her. We’d both heard that she had miscarried because of the war.Tesha has always been very strong, but very compassionate. Personally, I think she makes an outstanding dragon because of her inherent nature.She shrugs at Emmi’s question. “I’m not sure how you can love and miss someone that you didn’t even know existed until after they were gone. But I still feel the loss and so does Fen. Thankfully, we have Cyra who makes everything a bit easier. I heard, however, that you have wonderful news. Congratulations,” she says, even though her eyes have filled with tears.“Thank you,” Emmi says, hugging her tightly.“And how are you feeling?” Tesha asks her.“Better. Well, much better now that we know that Phoenix is still here in some way. Ajax and I were definitely struggling with her loss,” Emmi says truthfully.“I honestly don’t know how I would surv

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 58: Emmi

    I’m pregnant?I turn and look at Ajax. “We’re going to have a baby?”Ajax stands, holding me in his arms and spinning me in a circle. “We’re going to have a baby!” he shouts before his mouth covers mine. I return his kiss as happy tears stream down my cheeks.When he finally releases my mouth, he puts his forehead against mine. “We’ll all be one big, happy family, Emmi. You’ll see,” he says. I put my hands on his face and realize that he, too, is crying. We’ve both been so devastated by losing Phoenix that this is almost too much to hope for.“Dad,” he says, pulling away and looking at his father who has moved away to give us a few moments of privacy. “What’s next?”“I’d like to do an ultrasound. I’m curious about why Phoenix’s fire isn’t getting close to your belly, Emmi. It’s like there’s a protective layer around the fetus. I’d like to see if I’m right about that and if so, if there is any cause for concern during your delivery.”“How long will she be pregnant, Dad?” Ajax asks.“Wel

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 57: Ajax

    I woke to an empty bed. Not just empty, the bed where Emmi should have been laying was cold. Terror ripped through me. I’ve lost one mate. I won’t survive losing another.I raced around the house, calling her name, yelling for her. When she wasn’t there, I’d raced outside, wondering if somehow the witches had come back, if they’d found Emmi and planned to punish her because of Phoenix.I was on my way to wake Cal, to beg him to help me find her, when I heard her call my name.Relief swept through me and I rushed through the forested area to where I’d heard her voice, only to see her standing in the middle of the old medical center engulfed in flames. Phoenix’s flames.“Emmi, are you okay?” I ask, looking her over quickly.“I’m fine, Ajax. What does it mean?” she asks me, looking at the flames on her body. For the first time, she doesn't look afraid. She seems excited to be engulfed in flames.I have no idea, but there’s something else that doesn’t make sense to me as I look her over.“

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 56: Emmi

    Life slowly started getting back to normal. After Kenna forced me to start getting up and interacting again, I realized how much had truly happened while I’d been mourning the loss of Phoenix. The entire Academy was in a state of mourning.After everything that happened with Phoenix and the hatchlings, I felt a special bond to them. I started going to see them the day after Kenna dragged me out of bed. Raina was thrilled to see me, nuzzling me with her snout. I learned the names of the other four dragons that were there as well, Gemma, Blaze, Skye, and Azure; earth, fire, air, and water. All dragons seemed to be named after their element. Even the hybrids, like Ajax, chose names that relate back to their element.I stay close to Ajax and he seems to feel the same need to be near me. Our grief is still overwhelming, but we’re finding our way out of it together. I didn’t realize how much I’d miss Phoenix if she were gone, but I do.There’s a hollowness inside of me, a vacancy that I know

  • Rise of the Phoenix   Chapter 55: Ishir

    It took me a while to realize that the chaos in my mind wasn’t me, but Zephyr. I could hear voices, but I couldn’t tell if they were real or the ones in her mind. Until I heard Kaylani. Her voice was clear and gave me the clarity that I needed to realize that Zephyr’s demons have returned while I’ve been unconscious.“Where is she, Kaylani?”“She was going to look after Ancalagon’s hatchlings while he’s here.”“How long have I been out?” I ask, sitting up.“Three days. You need to stay there,” she says, turning her head to the doorway. “EVERETT!”“Zephyr needs me. You said so yourself,” I grunt. My head is spinning and I feel like shit. “What happened?”“What do you remember?” Everett asks, walking in and lifting my face to look at me. He flashes a light in my eyes that makes my head pound worse.I snarl and Everett goes still, but so do the voices in Zephyr’s head which brings the pounding in my head down to a manageable level.I hear Zephyr bellow from somewhere outside. “I wasn’t sn
