She escaped the academy. Now the fire has found its heir.
Elara Veyne thought leaving Ashvale would feel like freedom.
Instead, it feels like smoke, blood, pursuit, and the weight of everyone who followed her into treason.
The academy is burning behind her. Nythra, the ancient black-gold dragon who chose her, is wounded. Commander Kael Draven, the scarred man who should have been her jailer, is now the one person she trusts to keep them alive.
But escape is only the beginning.
Deep in the mountains, an impossible egg appears, pulsing with old fire and buried power. When it hatches, it does not reveal a dragon.
It reveals a child.
A boy with ash in his skin, gold in his blood, and a forgotten title powerful enough to start a war.
The Fire Heir.
Now Elara must protect a child created by the same forces that tried to chain her. Kael must lead them through the old fire roads beneath the mountain, where Ashvale buried the truths it could not kill. And Nythra must decide whether the heir is a miracle, a weapon, or the bait that will lead their enemies to the first flame.
Because the crown does not simply want Elara captured.
It wants her to lead them to the source of dragon fire itself.
And if she cannot master the bond before the hunters reach them, the fire that saved her may become the fire that destroys them all.
The Fire Heir is Book Two in The Girl the Dragon Hid, a dark dragon romantasy series with forbidden magic, hunted heirs, dragon bonds, academy secrets, powerful heroines, morally grey protectors, and slow-burn romantic tension.
