The grand hall of Ashborne shimmers, thick with the mingled magics of four kingdoms—dragonfire, silver light, blossoming growth—all swirling in the twilight glow. At the center, upon a throne of black stone and living flame, sits Aric Thorn. His crimson hair catches the low light, a match for the fierce blue of his eyes. He is the Iron Wolf, the realm's most powerful prince, yet his gaze sweeps the crowded hall not with pride, but with a desperate, trembling hope. He ignores his parents' hissed demands for ceremony, the soulmate bond singing like a live wire in his blood, waiting for the spark that will set his destiny alight.
