Smoke burnt his lungs as he pushed himself up on shaking arms, coughing hard enough to taste blood.

It wasn't just a copy, it was exactly the same. How did this get here? She puzzled over the familiar book, glimpses of a childhood she couldn't remember slipping into her mind. An old folded note tucked right in the middle of the book caught her attention, and she gently unfolded it. Somehow, she was sure she was meant to find the note. Her blood ran cold as she read the content of the note, cold sweat springing up on her spine. The contents of the note was simple but ominous. “The sins of the father live in the blood of the daughter.”

Kyle's heartbeat, faint and very constant. “The bond can be severed,” The shadow moving back into her skin. “But freedom demand a price in blood.” The light in her veins faded. She leaned against the wall, shaking. The mirror on her dresser had split clean down the center – one image now two. Lydia stared at her splited reflection and said quietly. “Then let it be my sacrifice first.” Outside, the sound of thunder echoes – not from the cloud, but from the woods. Something old and powerful had moved in response to her summon.

He didn't use a blade; he used a blast of raw, electromagnetic energy that he drew directly from the Rift. ​Leo was thrown backward, his pulse-pistol skittering across the platform. He hit one of the support cables, the vibration of the metal humming through his teeth. Thorne was on him in an instant, his hand clenching around Leo’s throat. ​"You are a beautiful machine, Leo," Thorne whispered, his voice vibrating with the power of the volcano. "But you are still a machine. I am the Blood."

"You think your parlor tricks can stop me? I've been forging steel since before you were born. I've bathed in the Ash Rivers and survived. Your magic is nothing compared to the flames I command!" She hurls a spear of pure fire directly at my chest. I don't have time to dodge. Don't have time to shield. I can only watch as death hurtles toward me. And then Kael is in front of me, taking the hit. The fire strikes him full in the chest, and I feel his agony echo through the bond. But instead of consuming him, the flames seem to be absorbed into the Bloodwraith Mark, feeding the curse. "No!" I scream, reaching for him.

She drove the spike straight down through the silver vial she was still holding against her chest, shattering the glass and forcing the unrefined sovereign blood to mix directly with the pitch-black ink leaking from her shoulder. ​She didn't print a new line; she shattered the press bed. ​The miles-wide slate floor cracked along its central axis with a sound like a continent breaking in two. A massive, jagged chasm opened directly beneath her bare feet, a column of white-hot volcanic steam and unrefined magical grease erupting from the mountain's absolute core and tearing through the sixty-ninth tier like an artillery shell. The fifty-ton steel plate was physically blown upward by the pressu

He crumples next to the first, his weapon clattering to the floor beside him. Then there's silence—except for the gunfire echoing from the backyard. I hold my breath, gun still raised, until I hear the back door slide open. Luther and Thunder rush back in, both panting, both alive. Luther's cut is streaked with blood. "Are you okay—?"

Dark clouds were pressing down, and thunder pelted wildly. Dazzling fairy lights burst out from Rynold's finger, turning into a fingerprint of about ten feet tall, and blasted Lewys's body into blood mist like a bug being crushed to death. That powerful royal paragon's soul shattered into pieces in an instant like porcelain! Lewys, who was so arrogant just now, died in the blink of an eye.
