LOGINWar is coming, and this time it is more than personal. For generations, the Stormborn lineage has carried one story like a scar, the former Draconis destroyed their empire and left their bloodline in ruins. The Red Alpha grew up on that story. He was raised on it. Fed with it. Every lesson, every battle, every scar carved one belief into him, when the Draconis rises again, it must be put to death. But fate has a cruel sense of humor. Because the new Draconis is Lyra. She doesn’t fully understand what she is yet. She only knows she’s being hunted. Villages are being wiped out. Borders are closing. The wolf clan are preparing for open war. The vampire council is divided, each elder with their own hidden agenda. And somewhere deep within the forbidden forests lies a power that could either protect her or expose her. The Red Alpha knows more than he admits. He knows what the last Draconis did. He knows secrets about Lyra’s blood that even she doesn’t know. And he is not just preparing for battle. He is preparing revenge. As the Blood Eclipse approaches, alliances will begin to crack, previous betrayals will surface again, and the truth about the former Draconis will threaten everything. Because this isn’t just history repeating itself. This is unfinished hatred. And when Lyra finally steps into the fire, the world will learn whether she is their salvation... Or the final mistake.
View MoreLyra POVI learned something about this place.Silence was different here.At home, silence meant peace.It meant my mother was probably in the kitchen humming while she cooked.It meant my father was somewhere nearby reading or fixing something while pretending he wasn't listening to me.This silence was different.It felt like everyone was waiting for something.Even the walls felt like they knew something I didn't.I sat on the small bed Evelyn had brought for me, staring at the food tray from earlier.I had finished most of it.I was proud of myself for that.Mom always said I was stubborn when it came to eating vegetables, but she would have been happy seeing me eat now.I wished she was here.I wished she could tell me what to do.Everything was confusing.Everywhere I went, people knew things I didn't.They had answers.They had plans.And I was always the person standing in the middle, trying to understand.A knock came.I froze.For a second, I thought about the dungeon again
Lyra POVI did not sleep that night.I tried.I really tried.I closed my eyes and pulled the blanket over my head like I used to do when I was younger and scared of storms.Back then, when thunder shook the house, I would run to my parents’ room.My dad would always pretend he was scared too.He would hide under the blanket with me and whisper that maybe the thunder was just a big animal walking across the sky.I used to laugh.I used to believe him.Now I knew some things were not stories.Some things were real.And they hurt.I opened my eyes again.The room was dark.Not completely dark because there was a small light coming from the corner, but dark enough that my thoughts felt bigger.I kept thinking about Kieran.I barely knew him.I didn't even know his favorite food.I didn't know what made him angry.I didn't know what he did when he was happy.But I knew he smiled at me when I was scared.I knew he didn't look at me like I was strange.He looked at me like I was just anothe
Lyra POVI didn’t stop running.My legs just kept moving even when I didn’t tell them to.The house blurred behind me.The sound stayed in my head.That one sharp moment.Then nothing after it.I reached the wall near the hallway corner and collapsed there.My hands were shaking too much to hold still.“No…” I whispered.It didn’t feel real.Not yet.Not fully.I pressed my fists into my eyes like I could push the memory out.But it stayed.Him.That small smile.Then gone.My throat tightened.“I told him not to go,” I said quietly.My voice didn’t sound like mine.I stayed there, curled against the wall, not knowing how long passed.Then—Footsteps.I froze.Evelyn.She stopped when she saw me.“What happened?” she asked.I tried to speak.Nothing came out.“They came,” I finally said.Her eyes sharpened.“Where is Kieran?”That name broke something i
Lyra POVHe didn’t look like someone who belonged to danger.That was the first thing I noticed.He looked… normal.Not like the people in the woods.Not like the men in the dungeon.Not like the ones in the market.Just a boy.Standing there.Looking at me like I was the strange one.“Hi,” he said.Just like that.Like this was nothing.Like finding someone in your house wasn’t something to be scared of.I didn’t answer.I just stared.My hands stayed by my sides, stiff, like if I moved too fast something bad would happen.He tilted his head a little.“You don’t talk?” he asked.“I do,” I said quickly.My voice came out small.He smiled a little.Not in a mean way.Just… like he found that funny.“Okay,” he said. “Good.”Silence came again.I didn’t know what to do with it.“What’s your name?” he asked.“Lyra.”He nodded like that meant something.“I’m Kieran.”
Lyra POVI woke up feeling at peace.That felt strange.I’m not supposed to feel peaceful here.But my body felt light, like I had slept really well. I lay there for a moment staring at the stone ceiling above me, trying to understand why my chest didn’t feel so tight today.Maybe it was because of
Lyra POV The door opened suddenly.It was a lady, dressed in a uniform looking like a servant.I guess she was.She carried a tray of food and the smell hit my nose so fast my stomach growled before I could stop it.The big man walked over and took the tray from her hands.“You may leave,” he told
Lyra’s POVWhen I woke up, I didn’t know if it was still night.The room was dark but not fully dark. A thin line of light was coming from the bottom of the door. My body felt heavy, like I had been sleeping for years instead of just a few hours.For a moment, I forgot where I was.Then I remembere
Lyra’s POVI couldn't answer.I didn't know anymore.All I knew was that three days ago, I had parentsAnd now I didn't.The man didn’t look angry.That was the first thing I noticed.His hand was big around my wrist, but he wasn’t squeezing it. When I turned fully, I saw his face properly.He had
