Chapter 13: Traitors in the Light

Thirty-five years ago, I died calling that monster my brother, and he is still breathing with my stolen blood in his veins.

Soren stared at the fresh crimson letters smeared across the stone, his breath catching in his throat like a jagged shard of glass. His fingers hovered millimeters above the altar, shaking so violently that his golden royal mark flickered erratically.

"Soren?" Kaelen whispered, her hand reaching out cautiously toward his shoulder. "What do

  • The Heart of the Vault

    "If you light another flame, Soren, you are going to draw every shadow beast in this corridor straight to us."Lyra’s voice was barely a whisper, but it cut sharply through the oppressive silence of the catacombs. Ahead of them, the stone corridor stretched indefinitely into the pitch black, its cracked walls carved with ancient dragon runes that pulsed with a faint, sickly purple light."She can't breathe, Lyra," Soren said, his voice tight, laced with an edge of quiet panic. He knelt on the cold stone floor, keeping the translucent white flame in his palm low, just enough to illuminate Kaelen’s pale, sweat-slicked face.The black ice had crept past her shoulder, black threads spreading up the side of her neck like spiderwebs beneath her skin. Every breath she drew was ragged, coming out as a puff of dark mist."Soren..." Kaelen rasped, her eyelashes fluttering as she struggled to keep her eyes open. "It's... it feels like knives in my chest...""I know. I know, stay still," Soren mu

  • The Shadow Gates

    The Shadow Gates"Drop your weapons, or I will order every dragon in this sky to fire on those captives."Empress Valerie's voice echoed through the canyon like a funeral knell. The sheer power of her dark projection rattled the cliffs, sending sharp obsidian fragments cascading into the abyss below. High above, fifty shadow drakes banked in formation, their riders locking golden fire arrows onto the surviving prisoners shivering in the rocks.Soren stepped directly in front of Kaelen, his gray eyes blazing with raw fury as translucent white fire flared around his trembling fist. "Touch one more person, Mother, and I will tear that dreadnought out of the sky!""Mother?" Valerie laughed, a cold, mocking sound that carried no warmth at all. "Is that what you call me now, after abandoning your birthright for a savage frost girl?""Don't look at her, Soren," Kaelen choked out, her knees buckling behind him. Her blue eyes flickered a pale, ghostly gray, the black ice creeping up her shoul

  • The First Flame Rises

    "I am going to burn this world to the ground for what you did to her."The words did not sound human. They echoed from deep within Soren’s chest, carrying the terrifying weight of an ancient beast tearing itself out of a grave.Before the golden arrows could leave their strings, a deafening explosion of white light violently shattered the cavern darkness. The silver tether linking Soren and Kaelen detonated into a heatless flare that swept across the stone floor in a massive shockwave.The arrows disintegrated in mid-air, turning to harmless gray ash."My hands! My hands!" an archer screamed as his golden bow melted into liquid metal, dripping scalding drops onto his boots."What is that power?!" the commander yelled, shielding his visor as the temperature inside the stone room skyrocketed, melting centuries of thick ice into streams of steam.Soren rose. His body floated off the dirt, hovering inches above the scorched stone. His gray eyes were gone, replaced by twin pools of blindin

  • The First Flame Rises

    "I am going to burn this world to the ground for what you did to her."The words did not sound human. They echoed from deep within Soren’s chest, carrying the primal, terrifying weight of an ancient beast tearing itself out of a grave.Before the golden arrows could even leave their strings, a deafening explosion of white light violently shattered the cavern darkness. The silver tether linking Soren and Kaelen did not just glow. It detonated into a blinding, heatless flare that swept across the stone floor in a massive shockwave.The arrows disintegrated in mid-air, turning to harmless gray ash."My hands! God, my hands!" an archer screamed as his golden bow melted into liquid metal, dripping scalding droplets onto his boots."What is that power?!" the commander yelled, shielding his visor as the temperature inside the stone room skyrocketed, melting centuries of thick ice into torrential streams of steam.Soren rose. He did not push himself up. His body simply floated off the dirt, r

  • Trap Closes

    "If you kill her, I will tear this world apart with my bare hands."The threat rasped from Soren's bleeding lips, thick with black frost and unbearable agony, but the imperial archers did not pause. Ten glowing golden arrows cut through the smoke, whistling toward Kaelen’s heart in a fatal, blinding volley."Kaelen!" Soren roared, his raw voice tearing through his throat.He didn't think. He didn't breathe. He forced his broken body forward, throwing himself over her back as the silver mark on his sternum violently detonated. A blinding wave of translucent, white-hot flame erupted from his skin, smashing into the volley. The magic swallowed the golden light whole, incinerating the steel and shaft into gray ash before the tips could touch her skin.The sheer kinetic force hit the surrounding archers like a falling siege tower, throwing six of them off their feet and smashing them into the cavern wall."What is that power?!" the commander demanded, his gauntlet flying up to shield his v

  • Blood Bonds

    "If you touch her again, I will tear this realm apart with my bare hands."The threat hung in the freezing air, sharp enough to draw blood. Soren did not flinch, even as the serrated edge of Jaren’s ice dagger pressed directly into the hollow of his throat. A single crimson drop welled on his skin, freezing instantly into a dark bead against the frost."Jaren, stop!" Kaelen cried out, throwing herself between them and shoving hard against her brother’s chest. "Are you out of your mind?!""Get back, Kaelen!" Jaren barked, his eyes flashing with a desperate, manic fury. "You have no idea what you brought into this camp! You brought a plague!""He saved my life!" she screamed back, her voice cracking as tears spilled over her lashes. "Do you hear me?! If not for Soren, I would be rotting in a sun-cage right now!""He is the Prince of the Sun Throne!" Jaren roared, his hand shaking violently against the dagger's hilt. "Our father bled out in the snow because of his mother! Our mother was
