Ash & Ember

"She had spent seventeen years learning to disappear. The fire had other plans."

Seraphine Voss has one rule: stay invisible. In a world where Gifted bloodlines are hunted by the Crown's Inquisitors, being ordinary is the only armor she has. She keeps her head down, her voice quiet, and her hands - always dangerously warm - tucked inside her sleeves.

Then the village burns. And she's the only one left standing in the ashes, completely unscathed.

Now a ruthless faction called The Ashen Order wants her for the power she carries - older than the kingdom, thought to be extinct. And the only one willing to help her is Caelum Draev: cold, secretive, and hiding more than she bargained for.

Her goal is survival. Her conflict is a power she cannot control. Her motivation is every face she couldn't save. And if she fails - the lives of every Gifted soul in the kingdom burns with her.

Ash & Ember - because some girls aren't born from fire. They become it.
