My Blood Wizard System
Seras (voice only shaking a little):
“Lucian Dragomir, right?
Seras Himuari Nakamura.
You just put Remy on his ass like it was choreography, and I think my heart just filed for citizenship in your general vicinity.”
He looks up.
Storm-cloud eyes meet mine and the temperature in the cafeteria jumps ten degrees.
Lucian (slow, rumbling smile):
“Seras Himuari Nakamura.
Daughter of sun and volcano.
Your reputation scorched the mountains long before you walked into this room.”
He stands (tall, polite, ancient), pulls out the chair beside him, and nudges the tray toward me.
Lucian:
“Sit.
I brought extra fries.
Dragons hoard treasure, but we share with fire that can burn the sky itself.”
