Lyra

The forest had changed.

It was no longer the cradle of moonlit secrets and wind-sung lullabies; it breathed with something ancient and raw now, as though the very trees had remembered the blood spilled during the Rite. The air shimmered with unspoken truths, charged with power that hadn’t touched this plane in centuries.

Lyra pressed her palm against her abdomen, where a faint warmth pulsed—not just life, but legacy.

Their child.

Still nestled deep within her womb, her blood had responded to the Rite, just as Kael’s power had. And when the symbols etched in her skin glowed in tandem with the final incantation, it wasn’t fear she’d felt—it was recognition.

Something inside her had awakened.

But what?

They had barely returned to the sanctuary—a forgotten stone chamber hidden beneath the roots of the Whispering Tree—when the world began to splinter. Riven’s body had been taken by the Hollowed Ones, his death unresolved, his betrayal still reeking in the air like burnt ash. And the s

  • Shattered Vows, Silent Fire    Into the Woods

    The path through the forest curled like a secret, flanked by towering pines and bathed in dappled sunlight that spilled from the heavens in slanted beams. Ashara sat in the passenger seat of her father’s Jeep, her fingers brushing along the windowpane as trees blurred by. A light breeze toyed with a few strands of her dark hair, and though her face held the calm of curiosity, her heart danced with questions. For the first time, Kael was taking her somewhere real—into his world.“Are they close to you?” she asked softly, breaking the long silence.Kael glanced at her with a half-smile. “They’re my brothers. Not by blood, but closer than that in some ways.”Ashara blinked. “You’ve never introduced me to anyone from your past before.”Kael’s grip on the steering wheel tightened, but his voice remained even. “There’s a lot about my past that isn’t… easy to explain. But you deserve to know the people who matter.”As the Jeep turned off the main road and down a rugged dirt trail, a beautifu

  • Shattered Vows, Silent Fire    The Morning of Shadows and Light

    The golden light of dawn streamed through the thick canopy of ancient trees, casting flickering shadows across the tall glass windows of the mansion buried deep in the heart of the forest. A veil of mist still clung to the roots and brambles outside, but within the stone-and-wood walls of the Ardent Estate, Kael was already pacing the marble-floored kitchen.He had rolled up the sleeves of his black shirt, the crisp fabric wrinkled now as he whisked eggs with more force than necessary. The rich scent of cinnamon and vanilla filled the air—Ashara’s favorite.Today was her birthday.Her nineteenth.But the memory of the night before still lingered heavily on his mind. The way she had looked at him when he denied her the one thing she’d begged for. The soft tremble in her voice as she asked why. The silence that followed when he gave her no answer.Kael flipped the pancakes with precision, his mind racing. He glanced at the chair by the fireplace where her mother once used to sit, holdin

  • Shattered Vows, Silent Fire    The Border of Fire and Blood

    Ashara was no longer the quiet girl from the woods.At nineteen, she had grown into her beauty like the slow bloom of a midnight rose—sharp-jawed, long-limbed, with eyes that no longer dulled themselves for anyone’s comfort. The silver in them no longer shimmered with wonder but burned with longing. Yet even now, even after all these years, she remained caged in a place that pretended to be home.The forest still loomed outside her window. The mansion still creaked in the quiet hours of the night. And Kael—her father, her protector, her wall—had only grown colder.She stormed into the drawing room, her boots clacking against the polished floor, college acceptance letter clenched in her fist like a declaration of war.“I got in,” she said.Kael didn’t look up from the fireplace.“Westerdale University. Full scholarship. Literature and journalism.”Still, he said nothing. Only tossed another log into the fire, the flames crackling louder than his silence.Ashara exhaled. “It’s everythin

  • Shattered Vows, Silent Fire    Daughter of the Flame!

    The townspeople of Graymoor called her the girl from the woods.She was too pale, too quiet, too strange for their liking. Ashara Anderson had grown used to the stares. She kept her head low, her books clutched tightly to her chest, her steps fast as she made her way from school to the jungle-shrouded road that led to her house.Except it wasn’t really a house.It was a stone mansion nestled deep in the forest, wrapped in vines and mystery, perched at the edge of Graymoor like a secret carved into the trees. No one dared venture too close—not even the boldest of teenagers. There were rumors, whispers of wolves howling on windless nights, lights flickering in the attic, and strange sigils burned into the bark of trees nearby.But to Ashara, it was simply home.A lonely one.A quiet one.⸻Ashara at Sixteen: Innocent, Isolated, IgnoredAt sixteen, Ashara was all limbs and softness—tall, delicate, with long midnight-brown hair that curled like smoke and eyes a shade of silver too sharp t

  • Shattered Vows, Silent Fire    Chapter Nineteen: Part Three – Born of Fire

    LyraThe air inside the temple no longer felt like air. It was smoke and fire and the whisper of ancient blood. Lyra lay curled on the cold stone, her body trembling as the mark on her stomach glowed brighter—searing her from the inside out.Every contraction, every pulse of magic through her veins, felt like the world was shattering in her womb.She gasped, arching as another surge of energy twisted through her spine. A scream tore from her throat—not from pain, but from the unbearable weight of what she was about to bring into the world.Not just a child.A force that could either end everything… or save it.“Lyra, breathe.” Kael’s voice came from beside her, ragged, broken. His arms were around her. “I’m here. I’m not leaving you. Not now.”She turned her face to him, eyes swimming with tears. “You… you feel her, don’t you?”He nodded slowly, jaw clenched.“She’s trying to come through the flame,” Lyra whispered. “But I’m not strong enough. Not anymore.”Kael shook his head violent

  • Shattered Vows, Silent Fire    Chapter Nineteen: Part Two – Ash Reborn

    LyraThe moonlight cut through the cracks of the broken temple ceiling, painting silver scars on the stone floor. Ash clung to the air—soft, almost like snow, if snow could carry grief. Lyra moved carefully through the darkness, her hands brushing the ancient carvings etched along the walls. They pulsed beneath her fingers, faint and rhythmic. Like a heartbeat long forgotten. Like something buried too deep.She clutched her cloak tighter, though not from the cold.It was something else—a tremor in her chest, a flutter low in her abdomen. A reminder.Her baby.She hadn’t told Kael yet. Not truly. Not in the way it deserved. The realization had struck her like a dagger days ago in the Hollowed Ones’ prison, a cruel irony of life blossoming while the world around her decayed. But now, here—beneath the broken remnants of a prophecy foretold—everything was beginning to make sense. And it terrified her.The child inside her wasn’t just part of her and Kael.She was something… more.“Ashes h
