My Blood Wizard System
From downstairs, Dad yells up:
Dad:
“Five minutes till bacon apocalypse! Move it, supernatural or not!”
We laugh—quiet, wrecked, perfect.
The war isn’t over.
Thirty-three pieces left.
The Forty-Eighth is bleeding and furious.
But right now, in this room, with my coyote’s heartbeat against mine, my fire sister snoring at my feet, and my impossible family refusing to leave…
Right now, we won the morning.
And mornings like this?
They’re the real forty-eighth piece.
