Rebecca's POV Ember broke. Not dramatically — not the way Charlotte broke, which was loudly and with an audience. The way Ember broke was quiet and sudden and worse for both of those things. One moment she was standing in the middle of the corridor being pulled in multiple directions by people asking questions she could not answer, and the next she was not there anymore. She moved fast.

George's POV Priya's office at midnight looked like a war room, papers spread across every surface, three associates she'd called in on emergency notice working through case law while Camila sat rigid in a chair across from Priya's desk, her hands wrapped so tight around a cup of coffee that her knuckles had gone white. I stood near the window, watching the city lights below, feeling helpless in a way I wasn't used to feeling. I'd spent years learning how to solve problems with money, with leverage, with the kind of quiet influence that made obstacles simply disappear if you knew which door to knock on. None of that worked here. A judge couldn't be bought, not without destroying the exact ca

Prologue II: Pyre, 3113 Pyre Av 5, 3113 Stephan Caliphus, King Everything was on fire the night he finished the book in the back room of a borrowed house. He laid his glasses down on the desk in front of him and rubbed his tired eyes. The crackling of flames could be heard as the city burned all around them. The blood curdling screams of the men in the streets where they died was enough to make the blood of the fiercest warrior run cold, but he was a man of empathy and it hurt him more than it did the others.

The essence of the city, its spirit of unity and progress, lingered in the air, interwoven with the scent of old books and the faint rustling of parchment. The heartbeat of Emeridia continued to pulsate even as the city transitioned into the calm of the night. It was a rhythm that was not dictated by the ticking of the clock, but by the continuous striving of its people for knowledge, unity, and progress. Even in the silence, the city's heartbeat remained a testament to the spirit of Emeridia — a spirit that grew stronger with every book opened, every idea explored, and every discussion held.

“Please come in and have some tea.” Sister Mila escorted her inside the building and brought her straight to the visiting area where she immediately served Ember tea after she sat down. “Thank you.” Ember picked the cup and took a sip, enjoying the warmth it brought to her body. Ember's eyes shifted to Sister Mila and noticed her watching her with a smile. “My bad, I forgot to introduce myself.” Ember's cheeks flushed. “I'm Ember Heart,” She began by introducing herself. “I came to the city to attend a wedding and decided to pay the orphanage a visit while I'm here.”

Synopsis for book two. The continuation of Derrick and Emberly's story. Derrick and Emberly dive deeper into the kink lifestyle finding other couples who share the same interest, all while trying to close the family business. Will Derrick and Emberly's love survive once they start college and go months without seeing each other? DERRICK* "I need to speak to this person, please," I said as I handed the card the police officer had given me to the first doctor I saw as, Emberly, and I walked through the emergency room entrance.

If that's the norm, I won't care if I'm included or not. I just went to the library to read a book about Eleftheria. Maybe there is information there about the volcano. I will just pour out my anger and annoyance there. I am being immature and I don't understand myself either. The Palace library is spacious. Even if I spend a year reading it I won't finish all the books. Fortunately, it's easy to find what you need to read here because there are names. I went to the row where there were books about different parts of Valeria. I saw there a book about Samona, Caracass, Avalone, and Valencia. There was also a book about monsters in the Valeria forest and Eleftheria caught my eye.

“You’re one hell of a pretty lady. Signoral must have seen a perfectly reasonable special thing in you to have been friends with you. She had never had one after her parents’ deaths.” Calista raised a brow at Emily, who smiled, her lips twitching in a sad way that made Calista unable to understand why she had so well hidden who she really was from her for the five years they had been friends. Is Emily really her name? “Oh,” she said. “What do you do and who are your parents?” he asked, handing her a drink. “Grandfather?” Emily called, displeased at the choice of questions her father had decided to ask Calista. Chairman Hamilton was someone who believed in status and rank. But Calista wasn’t

Of course, she was probably wanting the attention. “Hi! I’m Emma.” She winked at her, the thick frame of her lashes barely moving. Lily waved her hand. She rubbed her arm up and down. “Not much of a talker, are you?” Emma giggled. She was obviously just a little tipsy. Lily shook her head, trying to back away from the blonde girl. Unfortunately, Emma wasn’t going to let her if so easily. “Excuse me.” She tried to get away again.

“I figured as much.” I turned away, motioning for him to follow. “Come on, then. Let’s see how well you play with cursed people.” And for the first time in a long while, I felt like we might have a shot at surviving this. If only because we’d just added one more weapon to the war. I found Ember where I always did lately, leaning against the cracked edge of the fountain, bathed in firelight. The light didn’t come from her. It came from the horizon. Another blaze in the lower district. The fourth one in as many nights.
