The supernatural market is exactly what it sounds like. A maze of vendors selling everything from cursed artifacts to illegal potions, all tucked beneath Clearbrook's Chinatown.

Jamie and Kade navigate through crowds of creatures that shouldn't exist. Vampires haggling over blood wine. Witches examining spell components. A fae trader selling dreams in bottles.

"Silver root, aisle seven," a vendor directs them. "Phoenix ash is with the alchemist. Third level down."

They move fast. Every second c

  • The Broken Luna From The Dragon Bloodline   Fallout

    The cargo ship docks in Cartagena three days later. Colombia. Neutral territory. No supernatural governance. Safe enough for now.“Shadow Council’s response is coming in from everywhere,” Jai reports the moment they step off. “They’re calling it an act of war.”“It was an act of war,” Kade says.“They mean their war. Not ours.” Jai pulls up intercepted communications. “They’re mobilizing. All four remaining members coordinated simultaneously. That’s new. They’ve never done that before.”“Because we’ve never hit them this hard before.” Briton reviews the messages. “They’re scared.”“Scared and broke is more dangerous than confidence and funding,” Meredith warns. She’s joined them via secure video call. The twins are visible in the background, chasing each other around the safe house. “Desperate people make desperate moves.”“Let them.” Jamie watches the twins through the screen. Hemston catches Herston and they both fall laughing. Something tight in her chest loosens slightly. “What’s

  • The Broken Luna From The Dragon Bloodline   The Cayman Run

    The Cayman Islands bank sits in George Town’s financial district. Innocuous. Professional. Hiding billions in Shadow Council funds.“Security’s tight,” Jai reports remotely. “Biometric access. Armed guards. Vault requires three separate authorizations.”“Can you hack it?” Jamie asks.“Not remotely. You’ll need physical access to the terminal. And Leanora’s codes.” Jai pauses. “Also, you’re internationally wanted. The moment you enter Cayman airspace, authorities will be alerted.”“So we don’t use airports.” Kade’s already arranging alternatives. “Private boat from Jamaica under false identities.”“That’ll work until facial recognition catches you.” Briton’s realistic. “We’ve got maybe six hours before someone notices.”“Six hours is enough. Get in, transfer funds, get out.” Jamie reviews the plan. “Simple.”“Nothing about this is simple,” Meredith objects. She’s staying behind with the twins. “You’re breaking into a bank in broad daylight while wanted by Interpol. That’s insane.”“Ins

  • The Broken Luna From The Dragon Bloodline   The Iron Wolves Coup

    Before they can leave for the Cayman Islands, Kade gets an emergency call. His pack is in crisis. "It's Saskia. She's calling a leadership challenge. Again." The messenger sounds scared. "But this time, she's got Shadow Council backing. They offered her alpha position if she delivers you to them." Kade's face goes white. "When?" "Tonight. Midnight. She's demanding you return for the challenge or forfeit." "It's a trap," Jamie says immediately. "Shadow Council wants you exposed. Vulnerable." "Probably. But if I don't go, I lose the pack by default. Iron Wolves become Shadow Council assets." Kade's torn. "Everything I've built. Gone." "Better gone than dead." Briton's pragmatic. "Let Saskia have it. Start over elsewhere." "You don't understand pack bonds. These are my wolves. My family." Kade looks devastated. "I can't just abandon them." "Even if going back means capture? Execution?" Jamie demands. "Even then." Kade stands. "I have to try. One last time. Make them see Saskia's

  • The Broken Luna From The Dragon Bloodline   Economic Warfare

    Jamie returns to find her business empire in ruins.While she was fighting Prime, the remaining Shadow Council members attacked economically. Sophisticated. Devastating. Complete."Everything's frozen," Briton reports grimly. "Bank accounts. Assets. Properties. All seized through legal injunctions filed in seventeen countries simultaneously.""How is that possible? We have legal protections.""Not anymore. Shadow Council operatives infiltrated courts worldwide. Filed claims that your businesses fund terrorism. Dragon terrorism specifically." Briton shows documents. "They're using your victory against you. Claiming you're a threat to international stability."Jamie reviews the filings. They're brilliant. Twisted truth into legal justification."Fighting the Council is now classified as terrorism. Your assets are frozen pending investigation. Investigation that could take years." Briton's frustrated. "They're bleeding us dry without firing a shot.""What about alliance funding?""Same.

  • The Broken Luna From The Dragon Bloodline   Leanora's Gambit

    The battle's going badly. Three Shadow Council members engage Jamie's team directly. Prime watches from the throne, amused. The other two members maintain the child-curse spell.Jamie's team is losing. Fast.Then reinforcements arrive. Unexpected ones.Leanora Thornton crashes through a window in full dragon form. Her essence should be dampened. It's not."Surprise," she says, shifting back. "Miss me?"Behind her, fifty fighters pour in. Mix of alliance members and freed prisoners. People Leanora recruited."How?" Jamie manages between dodging attacks."Broke probation. Regenerated my essence completely. Called in every favor I'm owed." Leanora throws magic at a Shadow Council member. "Figured you'd need help. Was right apparently.""You're still a traitor!""Was a traitor. Now I'm trying to fix that." Leanora's fighting alongside them now. "Can we argue about my redemption arc later? Kind of busy not dying."The reinforcements help. But six immortals are still too strong."We need th

  • The Broken Luna From The Dragon Bloodline   The Sickness

    Jamie's preparing to scout the monastery when Kade calls from Canada. His voice is panicked."Something's wrong with Herston. She collapsed during training. Won't wake up."Jamie's world stops. "What?""She was practicing shields. Everything normal. Then she screamed and fell. Her scales are glowing. Pulsing. Like something's trying to get out." Kade's desperate. "We've got doctors but they don't know what's wrong.""I'm coming. Right now." Jamie's already moving."Jamie, we're in the middle of—" Briton starts."I don't care! My daughter's dying!" She's heading for the plane. "Prime can wait. My child can't."The flight to Canada takes eight hours. Longest eight hours of Jamie's life.Jai provides updates. "Herston's stable but unconscious. Her essence readings are off the charts. Something's affecting her dragon blood directly.""What could do that?""Unknown. But Jamie, there's more. Other dragon children are showing similar symptoms. Three kids in Europe. Two in Asia. One in South

    The portal spits Jamie and the twins out into a clearing. Wrong clearing. This isn't any of the safe houses Meredith planned."Grandmother?" Jamie calls out.Silence.Herston clutches her hand tighter. "Mama, I'm scared.""I know, baby. Stay close." Jamie scans the area. Dense forest. No landmarks
