The Last Flame Was Mine

Sarai Ember Vaelion, 26, is the last living dragon of the most powerful and ancient bloodline to ever exist-the House of Aurix. Born to rulers who once commanded unmatched magic and respect, she carries the weight of their legacy alone, her veins flowing with power the Dominion once feared enough to destroy. Orphaned by war and betrayal, Sarai grew up knowing one unshakable truth: Aurix dragons could only mate with their own kind. And with her being the last... love was never an option. Instead, she built her empire from the ground up-sharp, ambitious, and untouchable-establishing herself as a force in both the human and supernatural worlds. Business is her focus. Power is her language. Survival is her only priority.

Azrael Syris Creed, 29, is the Alpha of The Order of Runebound-one of the most feared and dominant packs in the supernatural world. A rare hybrid of werewolf and warlock, his very existence bends the rules of nature, making him both respected and feared across every faction. Loyal to the Dominion he helped build, Azrael enforces order, eliminates threats, and upholds a system designed to maintain balance-no matter the cost. Emotion is a liability. Attachment is a weakness. And a mate? Never part of the plan.

But fate doesn't ask for permission.

Bound by a mating bond neither of them understands, Sarai and Azrael are thrown into a connection that defies everything they've been taught. He is the embodiment of everything she was raised to hate-the very system that destroyed her family. And she? She is everything he was trained to hunt... a bloodline he believed was wiped from existence.

Now, Azrael is forced to walk a dangerous line-leading his pack, answering to the Dominion, and protecting the one person he should have turned in. Because if the truth about Sarai gets out, she won't just be hunted...She'll be executed.

And the man sworn to uphold that sentence might be the only one standing between her and extinction.
