The Throne Of Fire Novels & Stories

She thought about a firelit room and a desk covered in documents and a man looking up from his work with storm-grey eyes that processed everything they looked at, and a word offered without explanation that had turned out to be the beginning of everything. Stay. She had stayed. She would always be glad of it. They went inside together, into the warmth and the fullness of everything built from what had been fought for and what had been given and what had, against considerable odds and across a longer road than anyone should have had to travel, come out exactly right. The autumn evening settled over the estate grounds. The forest was still. The bond was warm and constant. The work was ahead. T

It was the gaping void in my soul. It felt like I had been ripped in half. I lay there in the ruins, my hand trembling as I clutched my chest. There was a hole there that would never heal. Isla hadn't just taken herself. She had taken a part of my soul with her. "No... it can't end like this..."

He unwrapped it slowly, then placed it in her hands. A necklace. Simple, but beautiful. A tiny charm shaped like a flame hung from the center, made from some kind of glowing amber. The moment her fingers closed around it, she felt it—warmth. A pulse. Like it was alive. “It belonged to the last Fireborn,” he said. “She didn’t survive the war that came.” Evelynn looked at him sharply. “What war?” “The kind that hides in shadows,” Aiden said. “Not with armies or flags. With whispers. With blood. And with monsters.”

“This place is full of people you can’t trust. You can only trust me, at least for now. Not Damien. If he knows you’re not yet a wolf, he is going to fight to claim the throne and probably claim you are an Omega, and we don’t know that yet. If he decides to try and claim the throne, everything is against you. You don’t have any fight abilities, you’re not yet a full wolf—you’re going to lose. And you lose the throne along with it.” I nodded, understanding what he meant. But I thought to myself. Do I even want this throne? It seems like a deadly thing to fight for. Was I ready to fight for something so deep and important to these people? I just wanted to shut him out. I would think about it.

“What throne?” Her counterpart lifted a pale hand. Behind her, the rift widened—showing the forest again, then the lake, and then the throne made of woven silver fire and shadowlight. It pulsed once, as if recognizing Aria through dimensions. “Your throne,” the figure said simply. “The Convergence Seat. The heart of the new realm.” Aria shook her head, stepping back instinctively until her back hit Erevan’s chest. “I don’t want a realm. I don’t want a seat. I don’t want any of this.”

“A prison? No. A throne. You just haven’t sat upon it yet.” The ground quaked beneath her feet, rivers colliding, spitting sparks into the air. Her flames surged, uncontrolled, feeding on her fear. Maelor’s hand extended, palm open. “Kneel, daughter of fire. Claim your place. You can burn the rift shut. You can end the war tonight. But only if you stop fighting yourself.” Her chest burned, split between two rhythms—her heart and his. The black fire whispered of glory. It showed her visions: the rift collapsing under her will, the horrors beyond banished in a single storm of flame. Her people kneeling, safe beneath her unchallenged rule. No more battles. No more doubt.

The Throne shatters and grows in the same breath, spines twisting like serpents. And in the heart of it— Us. Burning. Breaking. Becoming. The Throne roars a promise in my skull: If I can’t have you, I’ll take HER. And then— Everything goes white.

In one hand, she held a talon—blackened and cracked, the last remnant of the Kilimane warlord she had slain. She smiled. “Pitiful,” she whispered, echoing the word her kind loved so much. “He thought his roar could rival mine.” The talon crumbled to ash between her fingers, vanishing into a curl of flame before it ever kissed the floor. She raised her hand, unhurried, and rested it on the arm of her throne. The legendary Throne of Flames. Gold hissed beneath her touch yet never burned her.

Lucian responded, as they approached the grand hall, the guards pushed open the door in their wake, and with a short polite nod of the head to Advisor Daniel, they began to discuss. "As you both already know the rule of cardinal has chosen a queen bearing the name Katherina Daventin. She is fairly young, 17 summers old I believe, and she needs to be trained in the way of a queen," Daniel stepped forth towards Lucian indicating that it was his duty. "General Williams, now that you're here the throne will be presented to you until the queen is deemed ready, as you see fit, an official decree will be passed out in the morning. Until then all hail the King!" The advisor spoke with faith not want

The car drove slowly toward the bustling, sinful heart of New Haven. It was an empire that belonged entirely to me. I raised my right hand, wearing the ring of power. Looking at my cold reflection in the window, I curved my lips. A man’s love is worthless. Only absolute power never betrays.
