Seventeen-year-old Aemilia, an orphan raised at a secretive Scottish academy, becomes obsessed with an ancient arch hidden in the nearby woods. When she deciphers its forgotten inscription, it opens a portal to a magical medieval kingdom. There she meets Brian, a young prince she cannot forget. Back home, the young man she had been enamoured of for years, Francis, finally returns her affection-but Aemilia's heart is divided between two worlds. As she continues crossing the portal, Brian's hidden destiny awakens: he is a dragon shifter whose power threatens both realms. When he is declared an enemy, Aemilia must choose-destroy the dragon to save her world, or protect the boy she loves. My entry for the ONC 2026.

"I bet you would be delicious."  Is this flirting, or is he actually thinking about eating me?  The server brings over our order. Evander devours his food. It is concerning and impressive how fast he wolfed it down, pun intended, I guess. "You know I've always been team Edward."  My attempt at changing the subject from me being food.  "The undead blood-sucking demon?"  "I assume you don't approve."  My mocking tone gets under his skin, and I enjoy this more than I should.  "Yes, why not? He gets to live forever, never gets cold, is super fast, and reads minds."  "Mmf, not to quote Jacob, but I am alive. I have heat, primal instincts, and I prefer to live fully rather than live forever."  Primal instincts- I wonder what all of that could entail. Why do I find that more attractive than scary?  "The heat could help," I admit as I pull the jacket closer to my body. He smirks, but there's a flicker of something darker in his eyes.  "So you'd rather cuddle with a corpse than burn with a beast?" That's an oddly intriguing thought, I'll admit. I raise an eyebrow. "Depends on the beast, I guess." He leans in slightly, elbows on the table, voice low. "Careful, Aylin. You're flirting with fire." I take a slow sip of my iced coffee, letting the cold contrast with the heat rising in my chest. "Maybe I'll like the burn."
