“Come with us, flame. Now.” They shattered me a third time, Zephyr burying deep and spilling hot inside me with a broken groan, his hips jerking as he flooded my pussy.

We had also eaten dinner here in our previous life—but just as the dishes were served, Jared lured us away, tied us up, and pushed us off a cliff. Michael ordered the same dishes as last time. He asked with a smile, "Do you have the guts to eat these dishes again?" I nodded resolutely. My cold body warmed up after the meal. When I pulled out my phone, I saw more than 100 missed calls from Jared and his team members. I didn't feel like calling them, so I opened Instagram and found out that he had unblocked me. "Kaitlyn, where on earth did you go? Mom's dead! Why didn't you tell me?"

He said softly, patting her shoulder while looking into her eyes. He leaned closer to her, inhaling her intoxicating scent as if she were his oxygen. His hand clutched her slim waist while another hand was making patterns on her thigh, creating a tickling sensation in her. She looked into his amber eyes. There's something about that gaze of his, which she'll never find in another man. As if at that moment, their souls have made a bridge. That's all she ever needed to connect. A love that's burning inside of him, the sort that goes for eternity.

Elders parted for him “Peace is not the absence of danger, Flame. It is the root that grows even when storms occur. What you sealed was not simply a gate. It was memory of blood” They followed him, passing through archways of twisted vine and moss covered stone. “You carry the Flame,” Thorne said without looking back. “But do you know where it was lit?” Crystal slowed. “Elira…” “No,” Thorne cut in, voice colder. “Elira was never the first. She was merely the first to claim ownership. The Flame predates her, predates the wolf packs, predates even the division of earth and sky. It is older than all of us. What she twisted was only a fraction.”

“Yes, I do.” “Yes. Selene used Vestra’s powder, but it can only be used once every five years because Vestra is not active anymore.” Her expression changed slightly for a few seconds but immediately returned to normal before I could name whatever it was. “And the last… Nivor, the Silent Flame. His fire burned only those with hatred in their hearts. He was the pack’s purifier.” Camille gasped softly. “They sound incredible… If they protected the pack, why lock them away?”

“It was the Flame That Waits. The one that burns beneath time.” Flashback – Aria’s Memory: The night of Liora’s birth, after she begged the darkness, a second voice arrived, This one warm, Soothing, Kind, It whispered: “She will be fire. But she must burn alone first.” And then, it vanished. Moments later, Liora took her first breath. Back in the present, Altheya traced an old glyph on the war map. “Old legends speak of a First Flame,” she said. “Not from gods. Not from shadow. But from the balance between, Some call it the Equinox Spark, A soul born when light and dark are in perfect tension.”

“Then we do this together.” Celeste nodded. “The first fire will be named. The justification dismantled. And the pattern broken.” Outside, the city lights flickered on as evening settled. The world continued, unaware of the history written into ash beneath its feet. Evelyn looked once more at the folder on the table. Fires. Names. Lies framed as necessity. The first fire had been lit in fear. This time, the truth would burn instead. And it would not stop until the pattern was gone.

It lit the space between them with something akin to golden sunlight. Adelaide’s breath left her in a single, stunned whisper: “It’s… beautiful.” The corners of Cael’s mouth tightened, not quite a smile. Like the expression belonged to a different man, one who had once been allowed to hope. “This is Emberflame,” he said. “My people’s oldest fire. The first fire that rose from the earth. Very few demons still carry it.” His voice dropped. “It’s forbidden. If Apollo saw this—” He didn’t finish the sentence. Her flames dimmed along her arms, as if yielding to the presence of his golden thread. As if her power recognised something more kingly than Hell’s crown.

My fiancé, Jim Smith, had always been the kind of older brother who spoiled his younger sister. Harriet Smith, his adopted sister, was the first person he thought of whenever anything happened. When the craze for seasonal drinks swept through town, he was quick to buy Harriet the first one of the season. When he bought his first car outright, he saved the passenger seat for her to try first. Even when a fire broke out in our house in the middle of the night, his first instinct was to rush into Harriet's room and carry her downstairs. Only after he knew she was safe did he call to wake me. After I was injured in that fire, I finally lost my temper and demanded that he choose between Harri

I turned back to the window one final time, watching the valley below finally settle into stillness after days of restless, churning weather, and allowed myself, for the first time in a decade of patient waiting, the luxury of genuine, unrestrained anticipation. Ten years of careful manipulation. A marriage engineered to isolate him. A rebirth calculated to the precise conditions necessary. A festival orchestrated to draw every relevant piece into a single, convenient location. Grief, sacrifice, and love, harvested patiently, methodically, exactly as required to bring the Flame this close to full maturity. And now, finally, the collection. "Send word to the others," I said quietly. "Tell the
