THE NIGHT MY MATE BURNED ME ALIVE CHAPTER 61: When the Dragons Returned
The first dragon didn't descend—it tore through the mountain like a dying star.The subterranean chamber groaned, the bedrock buckling under my boots as a sickening, low-frequency shockwave rattled through the stone floor. Clouds of ancient dust cascaded from the vaulted ceiling, blinding and choking the front ranks of the infantry. Red-armored soldiers stumbled, losing their balance in the haze, while even the translucent, writhing shapes of the Veil-creatures recoiled into the shadows.When the beast landed, its impact sheared directly into the vein of raw red crystal running through the center of the cavern.Plates of midnight-black scales armored its colossal frame, but beneath the heavy ridges, veins of liquid magma pulsed with a rhythmic, furious light. Plumes of acrid grey smoke billowed from its nostrils as it lowered its massive, crested skull until its snout nearly brushed the stone before the First Queen.The Queen lifted the Crown Blade, the ancient steel catching the
THE NIGHT MY MATE BURNED ME ALIVE CHAPTER 60: The War Beneath the Veil
The cavern doors trembled, ancient stone groaning under a brute-force assault from the far side. Impact after impact reverberated through the hall until, on the third blow, a spiderweb of hairline fractures tore across the polished red crystal.Standing before her throne, the First Queen didn't so much as blink. She watched the barrier yield with the flat, emotionless calm of a woman observing a fire sweep through a house she had already decided to burn down herself.I adjusted my grip on the hilt of the Sword of Dawn, ignoring the cold sweat slicking my knuckles. "You said we should let the Veil open," I said, my voice raw against the damp subterranean air. "And then kill whatever comes through. So how do we do it? How are we supposed to kill a god?"The Queen turned, her eyes fixing on me with a weight that felt thousands of years heavy. "You aren't. You are going to survive long enough to become strong enough."Beside me, the other Seraphina stepped into the open, her blade cl
THE NIGHT MY MATE BURNED ME ALIVE CHAPTER The First Queen
The voice didn't echo off the subterranean stone; it rose directly from the pit of my stomach, a cold, heavy tremor vibrating against my ribs."Seraphina."My knees buckled instantly. Beside me, the other Seraphina lunged sideways and caught my elbow before I hit the stone, though her own face had gone paper-white, her fingers digging through my linen sleeve in a tight, trembling grip. "Did you hear that?" she breathed, the air rattling in her throat. I couldn't speak, only managed a tight nod as my lungs struggled to expand.Elara clamped her hands onto our shoulders, her grip brutal enough to bruise. "Don't answer it. Either of you."The warning came a second too late.From the depths beneath the floorboards came a third voice—older, raspier, dragging through the dark like rusted iron dragged over granite. "Come home."The floor split with a sound like a snapping spine. A pillar of raw, crimson light erupted between us and the black pool, the concussive shockwave throwing us a
THE NIGHT MY MATE BURNED ME ALIVE CHAPTER 58: The Prison Breaks
The eyes beneath the black water opened—two pale, unblinking circles staring up through the liquid darkness.Queen Elara froze. "Everyone away from the pool."There was no panic in her voice, only a flat, hollow command that made the hair on my arms stand up. A scream would have been better; a scream would have meant she was human enough to be afraid.Caelan pushed himself upright against the damp masonry, coughing hard as he wiped a smear of blood from his jawline. "You don't understand what you're looking at," he rasped, his voice raw."I understand perfectly," Elara said without turning.The King Beyond the Veil took a heavy, deliberate step toward the edge, the stone grinding under his boots. "No. You remember. There is a difference." As he spoke, another fine crack splintered across his obsidian crown, severing one of its jagged points with a sharp metallic snap.The dark water swelled over the carved lip of the pool, spilling across the floor in slow, heavy streams. Wherev
THE NIGHT MY MATE BURNED ME ALIVE CHAPTER 57: The Woman Beneath the Veil
The voice seeped up through the soles of my boots—a low, quiet thread of sound that cut straight through the deafening roar of grinding stone."Too late."It wasn't spoken in anger. It was soft, almost gentle, and that was the precise detail that made my throat tighten.The King Beyond the Veil staggered backward as the bedrock split wide beneath his iron greaves. Black fissures webbed across the floor like shattered glass, swallowing broken halberds, splintered bone, and glowing fragments of red crystal. From deep within the earth, a dull crimson light bled through the tears, thick and heavy in the air. Then came the shift—not a sharp tremor, but a slow, sickening slide, as though something immense had just rolled over beneath the mountain."Seal it!" the King roared, thrusting both gauntleted hands toward the earth.None of his vanguard obeyed. Half the front line had already broken, scattering into the dust, while the rest stood rooted in place, their faceless iron visors til
THE NIGHT MY MATE BURNED ME ALIVE CHAPTER 56: The Heart Beneath the Ruins
The impact hit second—a low, rhythmic thud deep within the earth that traveled straight up through the soles of my boots and vibrated in my teeth.Once. Then again.The Crown Blade buzzed in my hands like a trapped hornet, its pommel biting into my calluses. Beside me, my duplicate—the copy made of my own blood and bone— stared at the hum of the metal, her skin blanching under the ash-streaked sky. "That isn't coming from the Hall," she said, her voice barely carrying over the wind."No." I shifted my weight, trying to steady the weapon.Near the expanding fissure, the woman who carried our original soul went completely still. "It's underneath us," she whispered.A third pulse sheared through the stone. Obsidian cracked with the sharp crack-snap of splitting timber, releasing a plume of heavy, soot-colored light into the air. Caelan stumbled back, catching himself against a slab of ruin. The quiet, unreadable mask he’d worn for months cracked wide open, revealing a stark, unvarni
