"Take a look." The book was covered in heavy, embossed leather and in the center, in script, was the letter K. What the hell was this? A scrapbook? What kind of scrapbook could Dusty have been keeping? He continued eating in silence, preparing himself for whatever he was going to see, while Marliss and Lou gave him what he called the deadeye stare. Finally, he pushed his plate away, wiped his mouth, and opened the book.

I never thought I'd be returning to that place after the incident and the haunting memories I have there. Maybe there's a way I can avoid going? The Dragon Spire loomed large in my mind, a towering, jagged mountain shrouded in mist and mystery. The memory of the roaring flames and the piercing cries of the dragons still echoed in my ears. The air had been thick with heat and danger, the ground scorched and unforgiving. I could almost feel the oppressive heat on my skin, the sulfuric scent filling my nostrils.

Every day involved calibrating metallic compounds, tabulating data, and stress-testing new alloys without rest despite exhaustion and without emotion aside from the joy of fulfilling my passion. Soon, I successfully developed a new metal I dubbed the 'ghost alloy'. It was extraordinarily light but unfailingly durable, capable of stopping bullets in their tracks. And during the test, Don Solon himself was there with his capos and only had praise for my discovery. "You're such an amazing scientist! How about fifty million as a reward?" he asked. I shook my head. "No, I don't need the money—but I do have a request." "What is it?" "Hide me. My identity, my presence… so that the Gambinos won't ev

I did not say anything during the entire thing and just watched her quietly as she put on her show. I wanted to know just how sincere she was during our seven years of friendship. By the looks of it, I was too naive and mistook this venomous viper for a harmless pet. That was why I ended up dying so tragically in the previous cycle. “That’s fine. If you can’t help me, someone else will.” I did not stop smiling and dialed a number. The moment the call went through, the person on the other end asked anxiously, “Miss Nelson, have you managed to contact Joy?”

It’s not a nice heat, not the warmth of blood and humanity, but something bright and unyielding, a heat that never lived, and thus can’t die. I remain still even as Chryseus continues to approach, letting the sensation burn through me. I feel the briefest touch of Chryseus’s hand on my shoulder, and I hear his yelp of pain, but they’re so very distant in comparison to the unbearable heat coursing through me, this flameless fire that cleanses and destroys all at once.

Brown and gold and barely focused. "Kael," she whispers. "The dust. Do not let them touch the dust." I look at the black powder covering the courtyard. It shifts in the night breeze like something alive. A warrior near the gate steps too close. The dust rises. Clings to his boot. He cries out—a sharp, surprised sound—and collapses. "Nobody move!" I roar. "The dust is poison. Stand still. Do not breathe it in." The warriors freeze. The servants slam their doors.

Christmas was the reading of the book. This Christmas, Don's book was a novel—Norwegian, which was not a coincidence, a novel by the same writer whose essays were in the Norway reading programme. The novel was called The Dark Year, and it was about a man who spent a winter alone in a cabin in the far north of Norway, experiencing the full darkness for the first time. Don had been saving it since September, when he had finished the essays. He had placed it on the shelf above his desk, the designated holding place for the Christmas book, and had not opened it once.

“I think we’re standing in the ashes of something that hasn’t finished burning.” I smiled faintly. “You always did love fire.” She didn’t smile back. “You always underestimate how long it smolders.” There it was again — that flicker in her eyes. The same one she had before a war began. Only now, there was no war to fight. Just ghosts she couldn’t name. AMARA By noon, the heat had settled thick over the coast.
