Summary
“I could kill you,” Reyna said, her voice lilting, teasing.
“You could try,” the woman answered, as calm as ever.
Reyna laughed then, low and rich, filled with something dangerous and delighted. “Oh, I like you.”
For centuries, the mountain village has offered countless sacrifices to appease the fearsome dragon that lives above. When Sage is chosen to be the next sacrifice, she stands defiantly before Reyna. She is no ordinary offering. Reyna will find that out soon enough.
That’s the thing about fire: once it starts, it can burn in ways neither of them could foresee. Will Sage survive the flames or will something deeper, far more dangerous, rise from the ashes?
Inspired by a post on X.
